When I started writing little capsule film reviews I began with pre-1979 titles. Then added the 1980s to my range, then years later, the 1990s. I need the distance of time before I have anything to say. The 1980s were rich with small, quirky independent films, what with the collapse of certain studio structures and the rise of the home video market, replacing the old drive-in market for indie makers. Things do change in the 1990s. Everything is so professional. It's not that all the movies look alike, but they are so polished, so calculated. Entertainment product, as people say. Reviewable films become harder to find. What? The 90s are considered one of the best decades in film. There was an explosion of independent films in the 90s. Oscar bait films have been the same since roughly the 80s, that hasn't changed. I'd say the noticeable difference in 90s film is the introduction of CGI, most of which is extremely dated by today's standards obviously. Some of it, like T2 for example, still holds up though.
