When I go to concerts and hear “Longview" (Green Day), “Feed the Tree,” (Belly) or "Black Metallic" (Catherine Wheel.) It is impossible for me to separate those classics from coming of age at that time. Those songs were in constant rotation whether it be at a friends house, over the stereo at school, or MTV with classes that would work with it being played in the background. They are still excellent re-listening to them today but how they connected with that era holds a special place in my heart!
I hadn’t realized how good the 90s was for film until I spent the last couple of years honing in on this one decade. Before beginning this project a title’s release date wouldn't be a primary consideration for what I would watch. The movies brought astonishing technical advances over prior eras and came up with some fresh stories. This is my partial listing of 90s movies I have seen so far. I plan to continue compiling this list as soon as I figure out the technical details for how to do that. The actual list is much longer.
Scene from Free Willy 3. Around this time films like Congo staring a gorilla were popular. Learn more under "Explorations the Wild."
grandparents each bought video recorders. These cameras were likely becoming more common place during the age of VHS players. The 90s seems to be the only decade we did recordings with any regularity.
