Good evening everyone and welcome to The Magical Mystery
Blog.
Most of you, like me, are 90s babies; babies that were born
between 1990 and 1999 and distinctly remember everything about the era. We were
the children of the dial up age who played Pokemon religiously while chewing
Bubbalicious and establishing the iconic grunge look of the time. Apparently, the 90s aren’t over; with every
passing month it seems that something from the 90s is either resurfacing out of
love or being rebooted.
Here’s why it feels like the 90s:
9.
Crystal
Pepsi
Crystal Pepsi wasn’t that popular of a drink back then, but it is something
everyone remembers. Its distinct taste and
translucent appearance was different from the regular Pepsi that we guzzled. Regardless, it was a drink of the 90s that
people sampled and can easily recall.
8. Limited Too is Coming Back
Limited Too was the shop for all the popular kids and now it’s
making a comeback. It closed back in 2008 and converted to the store, Justice,
another tween shop. But now with the 90s returning, why not bring back a
nostalgic store too? Speaking of Limited
Too….
7. Fashion Repeats
Itself
Chokers, the grunge look, jelly sandals, Doc Martens, biker
jackets. You remember these fashion statements from the 90s and now they’re
returning and looking better than ever. I
don’t know about you, fellow readers, but I’m going to grab myself a choker and
a biker jacket.
6. FF7 is Being
Remade
The one wish of Final Fantasy fans everywhere is being
granted in the future. As announced at this year’s
E3, Final Fantasy 7 will be
remade. When it will be released no one is certain, but it will be remade
for the PS4 and promise everything the original game offered, including a
crossdressing Cloud.
5. “Jurassic Park” is in Theaters
Well, more specifically “Jurassic World”, but it is a part
of the famous franchise. Remember as a kid you were terrified and amazed by the
life like dinosaurs invading your screen? You can now experience the wonder
again in “Jurassic World” as velociraptors and t-rexes dominate the screen in
all their fanged, roaring glory.
4. ”Digimon” is Making a Comeback
As mentioned in
one
of my older posts, this is the 15th anniversary of “Digimon”. To celebrate this commemorative occasion, we
will be receiving “Digimon Tri” a continuation of the original “Digimon” series
with the main cast as adults. It’ll be a six part theatrical release as opposed
to a televised program, but it’s enough to get fans everywhere excited to see
the original digi-destined.
3. Almost Every 90s Show is Coming Back
“Bill Nye the Science Guy”,” The Magic School Bus”, “Saved
by the Bell”, and “Dawson’s Creek” are on Netflix. Even “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” is on ABC
Family, providing us with enough action to dropkick a “Dragonball Z” episode. In the future we’ll be receiving an updated
television show of “
The
Powerpuff Girls” and a sequel series to the show “Full House” called “Fuller
House”. We’re even getting a new “Muppets” show that will premiere on ABC this
fall.
2. Backstreet Boys & Nysnc vs Zombies
Yes, this is an actual movie that is being made. Yes,
Backstreet Boys and Nsync will be teaming up and fighting zombies in a futuristic
western zombie apocalypse. It will be produced by Syfy and I swear as Arceus is
my witness,
I
am not making this up.
1.
”Space
Jam 2” MIGHT be happening
“Space Jam”, the ultimate movie that embraced everything the 90s had to offer
is getting a sequel starring Lebron James and the famous Looney Toons gang. While
“Space Jam” was a great movie from my past, I can only hope that the sequel
will have the same iconic theme song as the original movie. This only proves
that if you really want to slam, you have to come to the jam.
Thanks for reading tonight’s entry. If you enjoyed it, feel free to comment,

So tell me, are you embracing the return of the 90s?
