You know, it is rather interesting how we were raised with responsibility when it came to watching movies and recorded television. You did not simply get to select your preferred program and sit back and relax. You actually had to find the right box, hope the right tape was inside of it, put it in the machine, check to see if the last person rewound the tape, rewind the tape if they did not. And after all that and viewing your preferred content, you had the pleasure of rewinding the tape again for the next person.

And you know what, we did not mind, it was all a part of the anticipation and of the processing of what we had seen. So it was off little surprise when we would eventually wear out our favorite tapes that got played again and again. And today, in this list we are taking a moment to revisit some of our childhood favorites that came out in the 90s.

  • Visuals from back in the day sure had their creep factor turned up to ten, didn't they. But nonetheless, it is still a welcome memory to be met with this masterpiece of the silver screen. To think that these actors would go on to have some of the biggest careers in cinema ever. Kinda crazy, and here we are still adoring them…

  • While so much has changed from those simple days sitting glued to the television, it seems as though there are some things which never change. Much like this cat video which has now moved online into the realm of YouTube. But it is nice to know that all along cat lovers have been appeasing their feline fur babies with televisual content.
