I feel you. I was a "sheltered" child, though I guess I'd say less sheltered and more like my mother was stupidly strict. No TV, no videogames. Occasionally we would rent movies for birthdays and christmas (we had a TV and a VCR, there was just no antenna or cable, so we couldn't watch TV). She also heavily disapproved of pop music and was from an older generation, so it was all either classical or stuff that REALLY old people like, like Leonard Cohen or Bob Dylan or the Beatles. And frankly, I hated all that music (I've come to appreciate Cohen as a poet, but his singing...>_>;). I was forced to play the violin, though. Quit that as soon as I was able.

As a result, I really do find most of the pop culture of the 90's to be stupid. I don't like any of the music. For example, I only heard Michael Jackson for the first time after his death, and Prince maybe a few years ago. It was... so underwhelming, considering how much people gush about that stuff. I don't see the appeal at all.

I prefer Nicki Minaj or Marina and the Diamonds. I like modern pop. I think Frozen was far more interesting than The Little Mermaid, though I don't really like Disney much to begin with.

I've still never seen like...Ghostbusters, or Labyrinth, or The Dark Crystal... I saw Star Wars quite late, so I never really got into it or understood the appeal. All the Star Wars stuff going on right now is just alien to me. It seems so nostalgia-fueled.

When I was a kids, I mostly read books. So my nostalgia is for like, Tamora Pierce and Animorphs and shit. You wanna talk about Goosebumps? Babysitters club? His Dark Materials? I read like every single 90's childrens' and YA series, I swear. I even read the old stuff, like Dr. Dolittle and the Oz series... Little House on the Prairie... that's nostalgia for me.
