A quick look at the 90’s

The 90’s is the decade of prosperity for many countries.  Neoliberalism, the expansion of new media use, the dissolution of the Soviet Union led are all big events and phenomenons from the 90s. The 90’s also represent the revolution in technology. By the end of the 90’s, it is common to own a personal computer and to use the internet. Video games are all about special effects, so does the the big blockbusters movies. Number of movies were using special effects CGI (think of Jurassic Park or Apollo 13). Multiplex cinema attendance in the 90s is up for most of the decade leading to the decline of the drive-ins.

Unlike in the 80’s, the 90’s prove that independant film makers can compete with the big Hollywood productions.

The 90’s is also known for the progressive use of DVDs over VHS, because of their size, quality and durability.
