Dreamworks SKG....The S Stands for Spielberg...Remember? 1993, A Year in Pop Culture History [20 Years Later]

Ahhh. Yes, 1993 was a good year for TV and movies...

I was 10 years old in 1993. How quickly they forget.

2 of the Biggest, Most profitable and visionary directors in Hollywood had one of their best box office years ever in 1993, because those two directors both had a film of their own in theaters that they directed, that dominated the box office in 1993, one quite a bit more than the other, in one sense.

1993 saw the theatrical release of:

Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas
Jurassic Park (Steven Spielberg)

Two of the best Hollywood blockbusters of all time

Those two films are (arguably) the directors's best films they've ever released, quality and profit wise.

And 1993 television wise, saw the release of a hit TV show by the name of Beavis & Butt-Head...Before it got DISGRACED BY being vaguely associated with that BORING, HORRIBLE follow up pseudo-hit show, King of the Hill, even!

Beavis & Butt-Head aside, Fox also had a good year in 1993, with The X-Files

Comics Also had a big year, what with Understanding Comics by Scott McCloud, and that was also one of Todd McFarlane's biggest comic book-related years. 

Got a feelin' 93 is gonna be a good year.

Good times. Good times...

I was born in 1983. I was 10 years old when all that stuff made its' debut.
