They were the Taylor Swift of the mid 90s with one whole album. You had to be there.

No wonder. I hated that band.

That’s the one scene that ages Jerry Maguire like milk. Was that necessary, Cameron Crowe?
That movie is awful.

I was trying to bite my own wrists open by the time the movie ended.

I’ll double down and say that I agree with her on the one that beat it for BP. Muwahahahaha!

I liked the English Patient better than Jerry, which I rewatched recently for some reason (oh yeah, I was looking for a song for a list) it was as painful as ever.
Oscar nominee wise, Fargo and Secrets and Lies were better than both of them. And A Moment of Innocence was better than everything… but that didn’t get nominated.

TBH I found The English Patient boring. But I’d watch it 20 times before I watched Jerry Maguire again.
I didn’t love Shine either, although Geoffrey Rush’s performance was undeniably good.

Shine, what did I think of Shine? Looking at my movie site, I didn’t nominate it for Best Pic, but I did nominate the actors (Rush and Noah Taylor), so I probably felt the same.

I loved the animation boom of the 90’s. Kids television in general was really exciting. But animation in particular felt subversive and new in a way it hadn’t in years. Cartoon Sushi, Oddities, Liquid Television, Spike and Mike, Adult Swim, Fox… Not to mention the Nickelodeon stuff. A golden age.

But none match up to this.
Even Siskel and Ebert liked it.

Yeah, it felt like it was being made by people who enjoyed it and were making it for themselves as much as for the kids, like the best cartoons of the golden age. More self-aware and pushing the boundaries of what they could get away with, but things like Batman: TAS also showed they could embrace more mature storytelling without going all grimdark.

That was definitely true of Ren and Stimpy. Kricfalusi wanted to make cartoons like the ones he grew up on after seeing how bland the animation landscape was.
Too bad he’s also a massive dickweed.

Remember when every cartoon character got together and told kids not to use drugs?
Do you think it worked?
