late 1989 - late 1990. all entertainment (music, tv, movies) produced in that period seems possessed of a singularly bland, insipid, anesthetized quality. were boomers all on quaaludes?

just reading this list put me to sleep. utterly somnolent.

it must have had something to do with the end of the Cold War and all the tension in American life/culture evaporating momentarily.

Any movie that came out in '90 was in the pipeline since early 89 at the very latest. To appreciate the insipid culture of 1990, you have to look movies that came out a couple years after that, which were even worse

TV was bland, too. They tried to come up with new and exciting things (Cop Rock, Twin Peaks), but it all generally sucked (Patrick Duffy and Suzanne Somers in a sitcom, please kill me).
