The Officially Unofficial 90's Nostalgia Thread

[DShizzle1029]

Remember when times were simpler? Good...well GREAT shows were on TV. Toys didnt suck, and styles weren't as lame. Yes my friend, these were the 90's.

The 90's was a simple decade. The TV shows we watched were far better than the ones on air now (with some exceptions). The original Power Rangers were such a mindf*ck that it streamed one of the biggest line of toys that parents were litterally kicking the crap out of each other at Toys R Us to get those toys for their kids.

Kids had a dictionary full of neat phrases such as "rad" or "buzzkill"


Post in this thread something you want to go remembered from the coolest decade ever.

Pogs and slammers! I still have 10 unopened packs of them.

[IbanezBassist_v2]

Geez! I completely forgot about those useless pieces of cardboard and plastic.

And metal...dude I remember seeing keosks in the malls selling like $100+ slammers.

The TV was so much better then

[DShizzle1029]

I remember when MTV was really MTV and not a bunch of shows about whiney little *****-ass teenage girls who are spoiled rotten.

Ya the 90's rocked man... pogs were the shiz, I had like the biggest slammer in my class... everyone still read Goosebumps, plastic lunch boxes were cool, ended every sentence with "PSYCHE" or "NOT" or 'THEN WHY DON'T YOU MARRY IT", Saved By The Bell, and you remember when beanie babies were always sold out, or if you know the words to the Macarena... ahhhh good times

[IbanezBassist_v2]

She died like right after Sept. 11th I think.


Ok...here is a show that a majority of you might not remember because it sucked, but it should still be treasured as one of those classic "Power Ranger" knock offs...Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters From Beverly Hills...if you dont remember it or if you dont believe me, look it up on Youtube, because they have the full intro on there.

Other good shows: Animorphs, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Weinerville, Legends of the Hidden Temple, GUTS, Global GUTS (I so wanted that glowing chunk of the Agro Crag). Daria was my favoite MTV cartoon. Aeon Flux was simple amazing (I have the entire animated collection on DVD). The old Celebrity Deathmatch...ah the memories.

Remember FLOAM??? They brought it back. That stuff was cool...gooey styrofoam that you could wad up and bounce like a ball.

[IbanezBassist_v2]

Two words.....Eerie Indiana. :cool:

[Phiromos]

yeah the yellow ranger got in a car crash...but the 90's were great...tommy was also in dino thunder...i saw a video on youtube...he was green red white and black..thats crazy

[DShizzle1029]

Tommy was in so many seasons of that show. I heard hes a musician now too.

Eerie Indiana was a great show. Super Human Samurai: Syber Squad anyone???

VR Troopers were second to Power Rangers. I loved that show.

What were the Hotwheels that no wheels and you smashed an air pump to launch them? I cant remember their official name...I had so many of those.

In the 90's LEGOS were actually cool and didnt have as many stupid movie themes as they do now.

[DShizzle1029]

I remember Spin Fighters were the shiz. I had a lot of the Power Rangers ones.

[Elnino]

I remember when MTV was really MTV and not a bunch of shows about whiney little *****-ass teenage girls who are spoiled rotten.

I don't...:( . All MTV is now is rap music, crappy shows, and like you said, whiney little *****-ass teenage girls who are spoiled rotten. And they only show Metal at 11 o' clock at night.... screw rap music, screw MTV.

[RevenGer]

Ahhh the 90s, my favorite decade :')

The music, the tv shows, the movies.. everything rocked back then.

[Super_Sonic]

The 90s, where the president was actually interesting and had a sex scandel. Most things have already been mentionrd.:p :cool: I'll add Y2K, also Pokemon when it just began.

[Raider87]

And of course, we can't forget My boy Snow....

Screw Vanilla Ice

[DShizzle1029]

Rap was actually cool in the 90's even though I NEVER liked rap, but when I compare it to the crap we have now...yeah I would go for crankin up some Snoop.

[DShizzle1029]

Hackers was such a good movie.
