I was there. They sucked.

I don't know why they get looked on so fondly now.

They even made a joke about the 80s in Dazed and Confused:
quote:

Cynthia: Maybe the 80s will be like radical or something. I figure we'll be in our 20s and it cant' get worse.

The joke being it did get worse. But D&C is a 90s movie so you probably think it sucked.

Don't get me wrong, had some of the best times of my life in the 90s. But as far as pop culture goes, namely music, starting around 93 it all started going downhill.

I am gonna say the 00's only because there seemed to be this misconception that if you happened to be a scholar of pop culture, then you were looked upon as though you were intelligent.

I was there just really young. 80's music wasn't that great until the end. GnR Use your Illusion 1 & 2, Pearl Jam, Nirvana.

grunge and some good metal, punk, alt music, even in BR + twin peaks (and seinfeld and some random good cult comedy shows), and people and cops generally left my friends and me alone. that's not too shabby.

Not hardly.

They mostly sucked for LSU football, though.

The 90's fricking kicked arse.

Pop culture is most provocative during troubled times, the prime example being the 1960's. And in terms of economic prosperity, a relatively peaceful external environment, minimum internal threats via terrorism, etc., the 90's did indeed kick arse. All of which may have contributed to a tepid pop culture.

Chaos begets creativity. That, as Bobo Belinsky would say, is "the yoomin condishun."

pop culture from the 90s didn't really change much into the first 5 years or so of the next decade either. i don't think there is that big of a difference between pop culture from 1990-2005 or so.
