Cultural Effects of a Late 80s World War III

What does this do to the whole '80s nostalgia craze we've seen in the OTL 2010s? The war happening so late in the decade means that most of the well-loved '80s films, music, etc. have already come out (though the set PoD of 1985 might butterfly one or two things away). I think that we probably would see a general wave of '80s nostalgia, but not nearly as much as OTL, and the specter of WW3 looms over everything like the imminent specter of WW2 looms over media set in the 1930s.

EDIT: I just realized that the WW3 scenario I posted would have the 1988 Soviet Armenian Earthquake go off smack-dab in the middle of the war. How would that affect the Soviet war effort?
