These award winners and blockbusters from the ’80s and ’90s probably couldn’t even get made today:
Nostalgia for the 1980s and 1990s is big business these days. Almost every major film franchise, TV revival, and action figure line is based on something that originated or was hugely popular during that time period. And it’s not hard to figure out why — everything today stinks. Things were a lot simpler and easier back then.
Or were they? It’s only through looking back at ’80s and ’90s pop culture that we can see that those times weren’t really as simple or easy or as they might seem in our hazy memories. To some, the ’90s might feel like just a few years ago. In fact, it’s been three decades. That’s a long time ago. A movie released in 1990 is as old today as Alfred Hitchcock’s If you were born in the 1980s and you ain’t 40 yet, you will be soon. And so will all of the things made int the 1980s.
