So I was thinking about this just recently. Im not even sure if I nailed it with the title of the thread
But theres this certain aesthetic that I've always been semi-fascinated by with kids films of the early to mid 1990s.
Honestly, I have no idea why I was thinking about them so much. I guess what Im looking for is what to call them, I suppose.
Robocop 2, the first two live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles films, the Power Rangers movie and a few others all have this sense of *sigh* I dont know.
Theyre films that have little character development theyre very plot driven. But they have this sort of aesthetic where they use dated musical talents for their soundtracks and I dont know its weird.
For instance, both Robocop 2 and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles us the plot device of having kids languishing away by playing arcade games and eating junk food. Sort of like a Softcore method of rebellion against authority.
Im sure it sounds like Im babbling, but does anyone get what I mean? Reading this, I sound like Im just talking drivel. But thats only because I cant explain it well enough.
If anyone can help me out, Id appreciate it. Theres just a certain something about these movies. Theyre like the kind of movies youd watch after a day of playing Nintendo, eating Pizza and watching MTV
I have no idea why this is racking my brain in the first place lol *shrugs*
You know what I mean though?
