First and foremost an apology is in order pertaining to our
late blog post. BOS staff and I were
busy at work helping with the organization of Cami Dahl’s personalized
Halloween party. As you know, Cami is
the event coordinator for Empower Events; a company that values the empowerment
of their customers. Check out her blog here.
It stands to say that Cami needed a break from planning. So, after
winning our drawing (announced through last weeks’ blog post, and our newly
introduced vine account) BOS and our personal interior designer, Jamie Hanson, took
care of every aspect of Cami’s Halloween bash.
Which coincidentally, held a 90s film theme.
The costumes featured at Cami’s grand Halloween event this
past Saturday has inspired me to focus on 90s films for this week’s blog
post. If you haven’t already had the
chance to check out Box Office Smash’s first official commercial, you can check
it out on our YouTube channel. The commercial focuses on
our slogan, “Every scene, in one moment” through a montage of our favorite late
80s, early 90s classics.
What Made the 90s Stand Out
BOS is in no belittling the art that has been created preceding
or following the 90’s, but here are the top three things we believe that made
movies in the 90’s stand out.
1. The Slag - The 90s were full of great
catchphrases (“Wassup”) and the popularization of a previously unknown dialect
2. The Fashion – The 90s promoted function over
fashion. High-waisted ripped jeans, bike shorts when walking, windbreakers,
bandannas, and combat boots; 90s clothes were more than style statements, they
were also really comfortable.
3. The Unforgettable Romances – Titanic, Clueless,

The 70s was an era of groundbreaking creativity, the 80s saw
the advent of the blockbuster, but the 90s saw a little of both, resulting in a
perfect mix of big-budget blockbusters, and quirky, inventive cult hits.
