As an older Millennial, I keep thinking Yugoslavia still exists. And the US 9/11 attacks happened last year.

I recently watched 'robot dreams' good animation movie from 2023, setting is 90's new york. It was so strage seeing the twin towers in the background during the entire movie. But then i realized the new generation has no first hand 9/11 experience and would probably dont even notice.

That just hit me in the olds. Kids today are grown ups that can drink in America and it was after 9/11

In my eyes, Jurassic Park from the 90s is still so realistic looking. A lot of these films today look like shit.

It's because of the crappy colour grading they do to merge shot footage with cgi effects. Jurassic Park holds up because it's from an era of cinema where they didn't do that grungy Blue-grey shit.

Blue grey shit is early-mid 2000 for me. Some stuff from that era is hard to watch. The lower the budget the worse.

Im a bit blind about the colors they exaggerate today but I am sure they are doing something like that.

I’m reminded I had a classmate who was Yugoslavian.

At the time I had no idea what was going on in the world at the time.
