20 Movies Every 90s Kid Remembers

If you didn't watch these movies growing up, you really missed out on something special.

20 Movies Every 90s Kid Remembers

If you were born in the 90s, then you understand that the movies we grew up watching are very different than what we have today. Even though everyone loves the movies released now, there is a special nostalgia that comes with the movies we watched over and over and over again.

Let's take a trip down memory lane and remember the movies that we all know and love.

1. "Matilda"

If you try to say that after watching this you didn't try to move objects around your house by using your mind, then I really don't believe you. Every kid wanted to be like Matilda at some point. I know for me, I just wanted to be able to feed myself without using either of my hands.

2. "Space Jam"

Michael Jordan and the "Looney Toons." What else can I say?

3. "Mrs. Doubtfire"

Being one of Robin Williams' most popular movies, you either loved or hated this movie. Although, most everyone just loved it. You know you at least chuckled when he popped up from the refrigerator and yelled, "Hell-ooh!"

4. "Bring it On"

You never really understood the point of this movie, but you still wanted to watch it. And it wasn't until you got older that you realized why your parents never let you. So many dirty references, but still so funny.

5. "My Girl"

So many feels.

6. "The Little Rascals"

I know for me, even though I am a woman myself, I always wanted to be a member of the He-Man Woman Haters Club. They just seemed like the coolest friends to have!

7. "The Sandlot"

Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez. What a dreamboat!

8. "The Goonies"

Even though this was released in 1985, it was—and still should be—a rite of passage to watch this movie. Goonies never say die!

9. Any Disney Animated Movie

"Mulan," "The Lion King," "Pocahontas," "Beauty and the Beast," etc. So much inspiration and so many feels come along with any of these movies.

10. "Home Alone 1 and 2"

We all were rooting for Kevin to kick butt against Harry and Marv, and were genuinely hacked off when they changed the boy in the third movie. You just can't do that!

11. "Hocus Pocus"

If you don't watch this movie every Halloween, you aren't doing it right.

12. "The Mighty Ducks"

All I have to say is: "Quack! Quack! Quack!"

13. "The Addams Family"

Growing up, I never understood this movie and I personally never liked Wednesday Addams. Now, years later, I realized I have grown up to be her. It's funny how things work out!

14. "Richie Rich"

One of my all time favorites. I hope I am not the only 90s kid who wanted all the of the inventions in this movie!

15. "Jumanji"

Another beloved Robin Williams movie, and one of my personal favorites. This movie slightly made me afraid to play any type of board game, but still amazed me because of the imagination of whoever wrote the script!

16. "Toy Story"

We've got a friend in Woody and Buzz.

17. "Jingle all the Way"

In my personal opinion, I think Sinbad was one of the best parts of the movie. Although I do love 90s Arnold.

18. "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory"

Another movie not released in the 90s, but still a big deal! This 1971 movie is a classic for any age. I mean, what kid can't relate to wanting to visit a chocolate factory?

19. "A Bug's Life"

This movie taught so many lessons that we were going to use later in life.

20. "The Parent Trap"

Lindsay Lohan as a twin, being mischievous and plotting to get their divorced parents back together. How much better could a movie get?

There are so many other movies not mentioned here that helped shape our childhoods. Compared to the movies that are released for the kids today, the movies us 90s kids grew up with are second to none. There were tears, laughter, and lessons taught that helped us become who we are. I will always love the movies I grew up with.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
