Man, the 90s were awesome. This is so nostalgic.

[malcolmxpanther]

This is more of what MTV should be posting on their Vault channel.

I was 8 yrs old. This when MTV was everything and actually had shows worth watching not just 10, 000 teen mom shows.

[sdaaydn]

Omg i love the 90s. What a magical time it was

[Law]

everyone was having a good time, being themselves, no one was afraid to do or say whatever they wanted.

[JustoDaGod]

I was born in 93’ and the thing I remember most about that era was how everything jus felt lighter if that makes sense seems like when the 2000’s changed everything I loved started to change

[Sr.DudeGuy]

Back when music was actually on the channel... ahh good old times

[samanthaghost]

I feel deeply saddened that people will never experience the 90’s again, and some never have at all. Life was just better back then

[codycrawford]

Remarkable how many of these people are still relevant 30 years on.

Man Nostalgia hits hard. I was only 8 in 92 but the vibe of the 90's is so memorable ✨️ now just a memory living in our hearts.

[AlexChecho]

Everybody is very on-brand for how we remember them

[infinite_vortex]

This was awesome...I remember watching this award show as a kid. MTV Movie Awards and Music Awards were incredible in the 90's! Love this 90's footage, thank you.

[kingLawLow]

Eddie Murphy looked more like Blade than Wesley Snipes

[danee]

Poor Keanu tried to be coherent after smoking a ton of weed but lost the battle.

[OrderOfTheGash]

Keanu is always 'high' on life man and super stoned

[arturocas]

I feel the star power on MTV award shows was INSANE! I don't know why it doesn't feel like that lately. Even up to the early 2010's where every single year was Twilight winning they still had huge huge stars.

[tupenny]

“Good luck with Poetic Justice” as that movie would later go on to be a hood classic Tupac was a rising star at that time

[pixiebld]

everyone just seems so much more calm lol ... just me? everyone's so casual

[cali_swaki]

Every time I see RDJ I can't help but see him as Tony Stark

[jrd]

WOW this is such a trip and takes me back in time when I thought this shit was so boring. I was 5. Now it’s fascinating to see!
