Good day, readers, and welcome to the Illus-trated Issue. That’s right, this issue of buzz is fi lled with all kinds of illustra-tions — infographics, instructional diagrams, photoillusrations — cre-ated by our wonderful

design staff. Hopefully it’s a feast for the eyes as well as the brain, taking a more creative angle on the local arts and entertainment landscape than usual while remaining informative. As a magazine, I believe one of our strongest aspects is our designers and Dane’s art direction, so this is his great farewell. He has put in a fantastic amount of high-quality work over the past year, for which I am especially grateful.

This is also my last issue of buzz. As I write this note and see this issue come together, it’s fi nally hitting me what that all means. The opportunity to have full creative control over a publication of this magnitude is one that I never thought I’d have — and may never have again, even if I have a long and successful career in journalism (fi ngers crossed, guys!). In the past year, I’ve spent most of my free time here, writing, editing, reading, interviewing, emailing, listening to the oc-casional disgruntled voice mail message and having a great deal of fun. While my sleep schedule, which was never that great to begin with, may have suffered, I would not trade this learning experience for anything.

When I started writing for buzz as a music staff writer, I did it for the opportunity to review albums and interview artists that were known on a national scale. I had no real inkling of just how much I would fall in love with these two cities, the music scene and the vast and varied arts and entertainment world here. Champaign-Urbana has something special.

As our staff turns over, many of us will be saying goodbye to buzz for good. My staff has been incred-ible since the day I took over, and I wanted to use this opportunity to thank all of them for making my job feel less like work and more like play. Working at a student publication is, by default, an uphill battle. Employees often have to deal with being underpaid, easily criticized, over-worked, over-stressed and in-experienced. Classes and GPAs often suffer for the sake of seeing your work in print each week. It’s a struggle, but it’s a beautiful one when it all comes down to it.

I will soon be graduating from the University of Illinois and most likely leaving CU, but the lessons I’ve learned and the people I’ve met here will remain a part of me. I’ve loved it here, and I can only hope that it has showed in the past 52 weeks.

So on behalf of myself and the rest of the outgoing staff, farewell. We’ve left you in good hands with Tyler, and I’m excited to see where buzz goes in the future. And to everyone celebrating today, happy Unoffi cial! Catch me wandering the streets this weekend on a sad-happy-post-buzz bender.

For those ready to venture outdoors and expe-rience nature up close, the Meadowbrook Park Interpretive Center is the place to go. Located in Urbana on Race Street, just south of Wind-sor Road, the Meadowbrook Park Interpretive Center offers many programs that make going outdoors worth it even in this cold weather, especially for bird lovers.

One of the most popular programs is the Sunday morning bird walks. They will start up again on March 9 and occur every Sunday morning from 7 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. The group will meet in the parking lot of the Anita Purves Nature Center, located at 1505 N. Broadway Ave. in Urbana, and will take a walk to bird-watch at Busey Woods or Crystal Lake Park.

If the Sunday morning bird walks are some-thing that you would enjoy, then you should also check out the Woodcock Walk, taking place on March 12. While the previous pro-gram may be too early for you, the Woodcock Walk will be at night, from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.

This nighttime nature walk will focus on the secret life of the woodcock bird and will be held by the staff and the Champaign County Audubon Society. Binoculars are recommended, and it is requested that you call by March 10 to confi rm your attendance at 217-384-4062. This hike will not be on paved surfaces and it will be muddy, so make sure that you wear appropriate shoes.

These upcoming hikes just might be the perfect opportunity for those going a bit stir crazy to get out there!

Students tackle world issues through Model UNFor one weekend a year, delegates from across

Illinois gather together to discuss and debate challenges facing the world today. Well, at least students, who are acting as mock delegates in the Model United Nations Illinois (MUNI).

From March 14 through March 16, the Univer-sity will be hosting the 19th session of MUNI, the annual high school conference being held at the University’s campus. According to the National Model United Nations website, the mission for MUN is to strengthen students to be better global citizens by involving them in an educational expe-rience that focuses on collaboration and coopera-tive skills related to confl ict resolution.

At the upcoming MUNI session, high school students from around the state will be discussing pressing issues facing the world today. There will be 13 committees that students will be divided into. All committees will have different problems to focus on in order to fi nd solutions. These committees include a Security Council, an International Criminal Court and an Economic and Financial Committee.

University students can get involved in the event by joining Model United Nations on campus. Meetings are held every Tuesday at 8:30 p.m. at Wohlers Hall in Room 245. Members have the chance to train in order to participate in the travel team that attends and competes in four annual conferences a year. There are also various leadership op-portunities available for members, including the chance to help plan and execute MUNI.

This is a great learning experience not only for students, but also for the CU community. — Lauren Eiden

Student government infl uences high school stu-dents — or not

To fi nd out how high school student govern-

ments infl uence students to participate in both their local and national government, buzz in-terviewed Champaign resident Michael Chan . Although Chan’s high school did have a student council, it was not very productive. He said the student council “didn’t really do much. They mostly just held events, such as canned food drives. They also did volunteer work for the local community. But they didn’t really have a strong presence in the school.” The council had a student body president as well, which Chan said “wasn’t actually that important,” and that the council po-sitions “were not very distinct.”

Student participation was not heavily encour-aged. The student council elections were held annually in the fall.

“You had a choice, so if you didn’t want to vote, you didn’t have to,” Chan said.

Though Chan’s high school government did not encourage him to engage in local and national politics, he does believe that high school student governments have potential to do so for current and future high school students.

“I believe that a student government has the abil-ity to help prepare high school students to be a part of their local and national government,” said Chan. “But defi nitely not mine.” — Will Hubbs

Local government crucial but overlooked, Cham-paign resident says

buzz interviewed Lino Choe , an engineer and Champaign resident, to discuss the importance of local government. Though Choe said he is not proud of that fact that he “pays more attention to the national news than the local news,” he said that local government is more important for in-dividuals living in Champaign-Urbana because it has more of an infl uence on residents’ day-to-day life. Local government is responsible for certain duties such as maintaining parks, regulating the

local economy and keeping up health regulations. Choe feels the impact of local government twice as much as most people because he works in De-catur, but lives in Champaign.

However, one of the biggest problems that lo-cal governments deal with is how often they are overshadowed by national news. Most people can name politicians on the national level, but are stumped when it comes to the local ones.

“I will listen to the National Public Radio (NPR) in the morning, and they will only allot maybe four or fi ve minutes at the beginning of broadcast for local news,” Choe said. “However, more often than not, it is state news and does not have much to do with local cities. Although it is interesting to hear about what local politicians believe, it does not stick with me.” — Emily Dejka

Illinois Alumni editor talks local politics, get-ting involved

Mary Timmins, senior editor of Illinois Alumni and community resident, recalls an old saying: “All politics is local.”

“Politics is about issues that are important to people — sometimes on a very basic level — having to do with money, with food, with access,” Timmins said. “If you’re not going to get involved in it, someone else will, and their interests may not be the same as yours; theirs just may, in fact, run against yours. So, it’s very good to be aware what’s going on politically at all levels, right from our homeowners’ associa-tion to the UN.”

As for the younger generations getting in-volved and interested in local government, Timmins gives them this advice: “I think it takes finding issues that you really care about because you have to care to be able to hang on. You have to that passion for wanting to get things done.” — Carly Gubbins

Upcoming Model United Nations session inspires community

The stoner movie we still can’t get enough of | The Big LebowskiWhen a ’90s kid hears the word “dude,” they think of two things: either Andy “Brink” Brinker or Johnny Tsunami saying it in one of those epi-cally awesome DCOMs, or Jeff Bridges as the original Dude with a capital D. The Coen brothers’ cult masterpiece has stood the test of time as one of the most important and must-see fi lms of its generation. The story line is simple: the Dude gets mixed up and mistaken for a millionaire, tries to get back his rug from his apartment all while fi t-ting in a few frames of bowling. Sound interesting? Technically, it doesn’t. But this movie relies solely on the performances. Bridges and Coen brothers alum John Goodman are delightfully deranged as best buddies and Steve Buscemi and Julianne Moore each give one of the best performances of their careers. The movie is crude, hilarious, chock-full of dry humor and exceptional writing and is just so damn fun to watch. That’s why we keep watching and keep abiding. —by Patrick Filbin

The greatest show about school and teenagers since school and teenagers existed | Boy Meets WorldFirst off, if you don’t like Boy Meets World, then you can get the hell out. Boy Meets World is the single best television program to ever be cen-tered around school, a kid’s family, and the pains of growing up. Even Stevens is a close second and Ned’s Declassifi ed is up there, too. But Boy Meets World had everything. They had the laughs, be-tween Eric, the dopey, bright-eyed handsome one, to the not so tough bullies of John Adams High, Frankie and Joey. It had the tears. Boy, did it have the tears. Remember when Topanga comes back from Pittsburg or wherever and she’s out in the pouring rain and confesses her eternal love to Cory? Or the last episode where Feeny’s just in his classroom and drops the “I love you all” bomb on us? That shit hurt, man. And you can’t forget the Halloween episode because every time you talk about Boy Meets World you have to bring up the Halloween episode. It was a quintessential show

about growing up, falling in love with that one girl in history class, making and breaking friend-ships and the cruel and unusual punishments of detention all while teaching you valuable life les-sons in the form of an impossibly wise principle turned life-lesson disciple. Boy Meets World was hilarious, but took itself just the right amount of serious for you to understand you were watching something special. Boy Meets World was special. Still is. —by Patrick Filbin

The sitcom that changed the way people think about family | FriendsOne of the problems with television shows now is that they have complicated story lines and a constantly changing list of characters, which forces audience members to watch from the be-ginning. There is no way that a person could start in the middle of the third season of Breaking Bador Dexter and not miss out on whole chunks of story line. In contrast to this, there is the beauty of Friends. Ten seasons of half-hour episodes with

little character development. This is why it is the perfect show to watch at 3 a.m. when your brain is on off. However, Friends was also important in that it changed the way its audience looked at the fam-ily structure. Friends focused on how people could be as supported and loved by their friends as they can by their families. This show was especially ef-fective because when the show started, the char-acters were all in their early 20s and portrayed the successes and failures of a younger generation. This is what set Friends apart from other shows that centered on a tight-knit group of people, such as Seinfeld. While people may write Friends off as just another comedy, it was able to form a connec-tion to members of its audience who did not have strong family ties. This show was instrumental in presenting a family dynamic that was just as real as anything ever shown on The Brady Bunch. And while this show will always be remembered as a sitcom that introduced America to such gems as “How you doin’?” and “the Rachel,” it should also be connected to the idea that family is what you make it. —by Emily Dejka

The show that helped address intersection within blackness and make you pee your pants from laughter | The Fresh Prince of Bel-AirWill Smith has entertained the masses with nu-merous fi lms over the past couple of decades, but nothing can touch the awesomeness that was his show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Audiences fl ocked to their televisions in the ’90s to watch their fa-vorite street-smart teenager, Will, get into she-nanigans with his wealthy Californian relatives, the Banks family. Whether it was Will’s faces and goofy sounds or Carlton’s dance to Tom Jones’ “It’s Not Unusual,” this sitcom melded itself into the hearts of kids and adults alike. More than just always going for the laugh, Fresh Prince told a story of a kid from a different world trying to become a man in a new place, fi nding support and love from family that he didn’t think he had much in common with. There are few things that become cultural phenomena, that illicit joy and immediate call and response reactions, but the theme song to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air became one of those things. Sing the fi rst line of the theme song in a public setting, it’s practically all but guaranteed that someone will belt out the following line until everyone is united on the street shouting, “Yo homes, to Bel-Air!” —by Amanda Toledo

The fi lm with goofy aliens and government agents | Men in BlackThe ’90s were a time when most of us students lived out our delightful toddler years. This period in our lives coincided with a no-holds-barred imagination. When my mother explained to me what an alien was, my reaction was similar to other youngsters: my world got fl ipped, turned upside down. With Men in Black being released, only further did the world of an already-extrater-restrial-crazed 6-year-old tumble out of reality. Seeing ridiculous space rays battling aliens was only a small part of the enjoyment. The movie depicted your average corner store clerk as a clos-eted alien informant, and legitimately so.Continued on page 16

A fi ne chef not only creates plates for taste, but for the eye as well; in Champaign-Urbana, there’s no short supply of such craftsmanship. We asked chefs, bakers, owners and managers around town which dishes they fi nd most aesthetically pleasing from their kitchen. From classic cheese fondue to fondant ruffl e cakes, let your eyes feast on CU’s illustrated plates.

BACARO113 N. Walnut St., Champaign

Roasted caulifl ower

“Drew (Starkey, chef de cuisine) chose this dish because caulifl ower is his favorite of the winter vegetables. Although it is grown, harvested and sold year-round, it is by nature a cool weather crop and it is at its best right now. Drew created the dish out of his mutual love for caulifl ower and horseradish (which adds the tiniest bit of heat) and the spaetzle and micro greens give it great texture. As for the white truffl e oil? Enough said.” — Rose Homma, social media specialist

BIG GROVE TAVERN1 E. Main St., suite 101, Champaign

Grilled bistro fi let

“The bistro fi let is one of the most tender cuts of steak. Served over a mound of roasted root vegetables with cider barbecue sauce and topped with a cascade of delicate fi ngerling potato chips, this plate has beautiful color and textural contrasts.” — Jessica Gorin, executive chef

CREAM & FLUTTER114 N. Walnut St., Champaign

Fondant ruffl e cakes

“Cream & Flutter ruffl e cakes refl ect our natural, organic style and our focus on taste as well as aesthetic. Each paper-thin fondant frill is ruffl ed and attached to the cake by hand to create a design that is unique to each cake and each client. We love the romantic, delicate nature of these cake designs, and they can be made to fi t a variety of color palettes. We receive ruffl e cake requests from clients for all types of events, including celebrations as elaborate as weddings or those as small as an intimate birthday affair.” — Amanda Wyatt, owner

SEVEN SAINTS32 E. Chester St., Champaign

Summer salmon salad

“The marinated salmon on this salad dances both sweet and salty on the tongue. The fresh veggies provide color, texture and fl avor and really shine next to the rich avocado that fl owers the dish. Tortilla strips add crunch and give a nod to the spicy, sweet, house-made, honey-poblano salsa vinaigrette.” — Anne Clark, general manager

THE BREAD COMPANY706 S. Goodwin Ave., Urbana

Classic cheese fondue

“Our recipe for classic cheese fondue has been unchanged for over 30 years. We start with Gruyere and Emmentaler cheeses imported from Switzerland, add some pepper and nutmeg and cook it with a dry white wine. The social aspect of the dish is what draws people to this iconic staple.” — Derrick Aikman, owner

PIZZA M208 W. Main St., Urbana

The Abbi Special

“Bacon, eggs, onion, pepperoncini, mozzarella and parsley. This delicious pizza is named after my fi ancee, Abbi Zito, who helped me to develop it and open Pizza M.” — Matthew Kitzmiller, owner and operator

Let’s talk trash. No, not in the traditional sense of the phrase. While most people

consider many of their unwanted items trash, others see new potential for these items as art or fashion. The Hatch Festival aims to show this artistic potential to the public.

The I.D.E.A. Store will host its second creative-reuse festival, Hatch, from February 28 to March 15. The festival will feature seven events over the course of two weeks and three weekends, with every event aimed at demonstrating the creative potential of garbage or other unconventional ma-terials. According to Gail Rost, general manager of the I.D.E.A. Store, Hatch serves as a way to intro-duce creative-reuse as a feasible form of creative expression to the general public.

“We want to demystify the idea by making it fun, accessible and relative to peoples’ lives, while elevating fi ne and functional creative-reuse art as an acceptable thing,” Rost said.

This year, Hatch will host Nancy Judd, nation-ally recognized artist and environmentalist, as an artist-in-residence.

“Nancy is a huge force in the arts and envi-ronmental education and uses them together to raise awareness about issues related to the limited resources on our planet,” Rost said. “She does startling, fun and comprehensive work and is recognized as the leader in eco-fashion in her efforts with http://recyclerunway.com.”

Among the various creative-reuse events, Hatch will present a runway “trashion” show. Accord-ing the Hatch website, http://abouthatch.org, the show will consist of three divisions of designers. The altered clothing division includes garments of existing clothing that have been altered to create a new design. The unconventional materials divi-sion features designs that are made from materi-als that are not typically seen in the fashion indus-try. The open division offers children under age 11 the chance to participate without restrictions.

According to http://abouthatch.org, Nancy Judd will act as a consultant to show organiz-ers, and in the hopes of inspiring designers, indi go Artist Co-Op will display two of Judd’s creations during the two weeks of the festival.

“For her to come here and share her thoughts and expertise, as well as exhibit her work, is a coup for our community and helps the festival gain credibility,” Rost said.

Judd has sent the two creations, a faux fur coat and aluminum drop dress, for display at Hatch. According to Recycle Runway: “cassette tape was woven onto the fabric of a second-hand coat to create the looped texture. The collar and cuffs are accented with the larger discarded video tape. A thrift store prom dress was cut up and sewn for

the lining of the coat.” The entire coat took 310 hours to create. Judd fashioned the aluminum drop dress out of hand-cut teardrops and circles from aluminum cans. According to Recycle Run-way, “The 1920s retro fl apper dress was sewn from a used cloth shower curtain.”

Judd’s mother, a former gallery owner, en-rolled her in art classes at the Portland Art Mu-seum at a young age.

“My step-father is a painter, and most of their friends are involved in the art world too,” Judd said. “Thus my life was always full of creativity.”

Judd said she created her fi rst “trashion” cre-ations for her 2-inch-tall teddy bear using scraps of cloth and ribbon.

“I still have the bear, and it’s wearing a Wonder Woman outfi t I made, complete with arm cuffs made from bits of metal that fell off my dog’s col-lar,” Judd said.

Judd also owes the majority of her sewing abilities to her mother, who taught Judd to sew at the age of 7.

“I began with patterns and as a teenager started altering clothes to fi t me,” she said. “In middle school, I began visiting vintage clothing stores, drooling over the intricate and beautiful designs from the ’40s and ’50s.”

At the age of 8, Judd’s family purchased land and built a house next to the Cascade Head Pre-serve on the Oregon coast. Judd said she spent

every summer and weekend there while her step-father built the house overlooking an estuary.

“These lands were my playgrounds, and I was allowed to roam freely for hours on end,” she said. “It was here that I developed my appreciation for nature, which has lead to my career in environ-mental education. I fell in love with the beauty and magical spirit of the land.”

In 1998, while working as the recycling coor-dinator for the city of Santa Fe, Judd created her fi rst recycled fashion.

“I realized that art and fashion could be used to raise the consciousness of the public about recycling in a fun and positive way,” Judd said.

She then co-founded the Recycle Santa Fe Art Market. While she initially created pieces for “trashion” shows, she decided to quit recycled fashion shows because she felt they had become entertainment for other environmentalists.

“I realized that I could reach more people with my message of sustainability installing exhibi-tions in high-traffi c public locations,” she said. “I also wanted an audience that was not already environmentally minded.”

Today, much of Judd’s inspiration comes from the fashion of the 1900s through 1950s.

“I get most of my ideas from watching old movies and pouring over fashion books from that period,” Judd said.

Other times, when commissioned to create a

garment out of a certain material, Judd said she considers the properties of the material and how she might construct it into something beautiful.

“At the same time, I’m looking in my vintage fashion books, and the two sources of informa-tion seem to come together in a daydream and a dress is born,” Judd said.

As far as collecting materials goes, Judd said she’s not above dumpster diving or “raiding her neighbor’s recycling bin” when looking for special materials. Other times, when commissioned for a creation, her sponsors will provide the necessary materials. Judd also said she fi nds excitement in the process of creating chic designs out of trash.

“I love watching people discover that what they thought was a glamorous dress is made from garbage,” she said.

Judd was in residence at Hatch from February 28 to March 1. She worked at a local school, provided two workshops at the I.D.E.A. Store and partici-pated in the Trashion Show committee meeting.

“In general, I hope that my work will inspire people to look at trash differently,” she said. “I don’t expect everyone to make a dress with their garbage, but I do hope that they will think of dif-ferent options besides the trash can.”

The Hatch Trashion Show will be held March 7 at 6 p.m. in the Lincoln Square Mall. More in-formation on the Hatch Festival can be found at http://abouthatch.org.

MY LEG!

OnMarch 8, the Gelvin Noel Gallery, located in

the heart of the Krannert Art Mu-seum, will not be fi lled with the contemplative silence often asso-ciated with museums. The famous paintings will still hang proudly on display, guards will still be on duty, but a live band and dozens of tango dancers, from novices to ex-perts, will be added to the museum mix.

A few times each year, the museum opens its doors to the vibrant tango community within Champaign-Urbana. For a few hours on a Satur-day, anyone who wishes to can strap on dancing shoes, walk into the gallery and dance amongst the works of art that line its walls, free of charge.

This tango event was created and continues to be planned and operated by Melih Sener and Chantelle Hougland with assistance from Anne Sautman, the director of education at the museum. Sener, a biophysicist, and Hougland, a communications specialist for a research firm, are two very different people united by their passions for tango, the local dance com-munity and bringing people together.

“Human intelligence evolved about 30,000 years ago,” Sener said. “That is also the same time frame when the first musical instruments were found. We have become smart just to dance. We are here just to dance.”

As far as dancing goes, Sener and Hougland said that the community in Champaign-Urba-na is a hard one to beat.

“In terms of dancers per capita, Champaign is one of the most jam-packed places,” Houg-land said. “On a typical night when you go out dancing ... you’ll probably see about 50 people. That’s about as many people you’d see in a Chicago milonga (tango dance). It’s about as vibrant here as it is in some of the major cities.”

Though the dancing community in town is well-established and very much alive, Hougland and Sener have spent their time here working to “move beyond which has been done,” Sener said.

“Over the years, I’ve tried to create events that are unique in some way, whether it has an art component or a live music component,” Sener said. “So there’s a little bit of a history and an evolution, but the culmination which today is Krannert is probably the most mature of these events because of the people who put their passions into it.”

The passion at work during Tango at Kran-nert Art Museum goes beyond the dancers. Live music is provided by an ensemble called Tangotta, which includes musicians Armand Beaudoin, Dorothy Martirano, Chris Reyman and George Turner.

“They’re long-term, brilliant musicians who are committed to local music,” Hougland said. “They’re powerhouse musicians and power-house community members in the arts as well.”

The music provided by the performers is im-provised for the audience, resulting in “songs, musicians, and a community ... that evolves from week to week,” Sener said.

Hougland said the environment of tango at Krannert is also an uncommon one.

“We’ve danced in front of Rauschenbergs and we’ve danced around Warhols,” Hougland said. “The music is art, the environment is art, you’re making art with your dance partner. There’s nothing like it.”

Sautman said the event also helps communi-ty members form a different, more interactive relationship with the local museum.

“It breaks down the stiffness with which a lot of people think about museums,” Sautman said. “The guards talk about it, too, how nice it is to have something lively happening in the museum.”

Continued from page 8.

The “openness” of the event extends beyond the physical space it occupies.

“One thing that is a defi ning characteristic of Krannert as host to a tango event is that it strives to be more open, more inclusive,” Sener said. “It is the kind of environment where people show up with their children and they run around and dance with each other, and that’s fi ne! No one will judge anyone because what they’re doing is not quite appropriate as tango etiquette.”

Hougland added: “There’s the very conserva-tive and very liberal (way that people interact during tango), and we are definitely on the very liberal side. It should be open!”

Hougland and Sener, along with the rest of the local dance community, work enthusi-astically to share their passion with others. Though many individuals shy away from the challenging intricacies of tango, Sener encour-ages them to reconsider.

“Tango, I think, is the simplest dance because it comes from the very simple idea of an em-brace,” Sener said. “All you need to do is have the willingness to embrace somebody and just

contemplate each other for a moment. ... You ask this essentially in movement, you ask this in breathing, you ask this in intention.”

Hougland emphasizes the expression of the individual voice that tango welcomes.

“In my view, approaching tango like you would approach a dance with steps is a little bit like the difference between teaching someone how to talk and teaching someone how to speak,” she said. “I can teach you how to say words in a language that are real words, but they’re not your words. Learning tango is about learning how to speak.”

Hougland said she encourages anyone and everyone interested to attend the event.

“The event is free and the music is brilliant,” Hougland said. “Anyone with a soul will ap-preciate the music. Tango is beautiful and in-teresting to watch, and if they want to try it out, the best thing to do is just to come and ask someone who knows how to dance to dance with them. It’s the experience. And if they fall in love with it, they’ll join us.”

Tango at Krannert Art Museum will be held next on Saturday, March 8 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

My father, who was the man-ager at a bank, had to be lying about his job. He was employed by a government agency policing aliens around the suburbs of Chicago. I mean, he wore a black suit, so naturally he had to bump into Tommy Lee Jones at the water cooler. The ’90s niche can be summed up in that single thought. 1990 Will Smith: rambunctious teenager. 1997 Will Smith: government agent recruited to fight aliens. The good ol’ years. —by Will Angelico

The animated films that represent your child-hood and its songs| The Disney RenaissanceThe Disney Renaissance refers to a period in the history of the Walt Disney Animation Studios that lasted from 1989 throughout the ’90s. Following the somewhat lackluster performance of some of their previous films, the release of 1989’s The Little Mermaid was a breakout success, launching Disney into its prime once again. Many changes in style took place from the studio’s previous releas-es, notably that they had returned to the Broad-way musical style. Most of the music throughout the Renaissance was written by song-writing duo Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, who created upbeat, catchy songs that characterized the child-hoods of many people. Things only got better for Disney when its 1991 film Beauty and the Beast became the first animated feature to be nomi-nated for the Academy Award for Best Picture. My personal favorite film of the Renaissance pe-riod is The Lion King, a film with great characters, an iconic sound track and gorgeous animation. Other standouts of the era include The Rescuers Down Under, Aladdin, Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, Mulan and Tarzan. Disney isn’t the only animation studio around anymore, but in the ’90s, Disney was the undisputed king, and to me, it still is. —by Ryan Neil

The show that depicts sexual tension more than the aliens it investigates | The X-FilesIt took seven seasons before our favorite FBI agents finally allowed themselves to go all Barry White on each other. Let that sink in: seven seasons of thinly veiled mutual attraction that was never pur-sued outright. If you notice how Scully and Mulder look at each other, you would see their combined names even understand this extraordinary love affair: Smulder. Other than this incredible chem-istry between the show’s main protagonists, each episode that investigates an eerie creature or series of weird occurrences manages to be unsettling. Whether it’s through a terrifying creature (the man who could melt and essentially lived in a little hu-man bird nest, anyone?), the classic character-ization of our lead agents or the opening theme song, it’s the constantly recurring quirks that make this show what it is: comfortably disturbing. From Fox Mulder’s ridiculous theories involving aliens always being the answer to Dana Scully’s sullen detachment and whip-smart answers, the duo is a staple of ’90s dramas. While the truth is definitely out there, the mutual attraction is easier to see right in front of your television screen.—by Kaitlin Penn
