I think part of the problem is that we've had so many BBC contests before that they're starting to run out of themes. Regardless, if you have problems with the themes you should PM Smeag, Tufi, or some other Moderator of the BBC with these problems. For some reason I doubt that a specific entry dedicated to how you find the recent contests to be lacking will get much done. If you want bonus points, give them an idea for the next contest theme.

Ah, my apologies then. It's just that there seems to be a lot of people upset about the recent contests and I've just been a little bit antsy recently.

You forgot to mention the sci-fi one (which was also common in the 80's).

I agree with you too. It's been pretty dry for contest lately.

Like when you first read the title, it seems flashy, then as you read into all the other stuff....

I guess I don't like to build stuff that already is. I miss creating new things.

I don't see anything wrong with re-doing old themes. Especially the oldest ones, with pieces varying a lot since then.
