Here are videos we made in 1999, this was the fourth year of the Arnold Attic Films which is my collection of home videos I made with family and friends between 1996 and 2003. The following is an attempted almost two-hours-long chronological (as much as possible) collage video of most if not all of the best versions (allegedly) of stuff recorded off VCRs.
Arnold Attic Films
1996 | 1997 | 1998 | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 | 2002 | 2003
As a family, we started making content as late as the 1000s, we started recording to audio cassette tapes in the 1900s, we started recording VHS video tapes via VCRs at least by the 1980s, we started taking photos decades ago, we started drawing pictures a long time ago, and we started officially recording videos via camcorders in 1996 as far as I know allegedly.

Chapter 1
We started making home videos in 1996.
Chapter 2
We continued making home videos and we had cable in 1997.
Chapter 3
I was playing this Nintendo 64 NBA basketball video game named In The Zone 1998.
Chapter 4
Here are like stuff we recorded via VCRs in like 1999 including when Michael Jordan was on Jay Leno. This collection includes some basketball games. To be honest, this video is just DVD 18 of my 2019 collection which includes a few different segments recorded to VCR from years like 1995 with the Blazers and Suns and also the 1998 Olympics say for example. This video is almost two hours long. This is version 1 of my 1999 collection of videos. But it is only partly from 1999. This is a rough draft. This entry probably has problems, errors, typos, issues. But here is the collection.
Disclaimer
For the record, to be honest, you might say 1998 and 1999 are not really part of the Arnold Attic if there are no home videos from those two years, if VCR content is not included in what is considered to be Arnold Attic related home videos. I should go back and make a better version for this 1999 collection of videos. I might not have a lot. Often times, it seems things were not always dated making it hard to know which years they were recorded in. We had cable off and on from like 1997 to like 2002 meaning there might be some cable programs recorded to VCR in 1999 assuming we had cable. We did have cable in 2000 and possibly 2002. But we also recorded regular television too since like the 1980s through to like 2010. I mean, technically, I last recorded to VCRs probably around 2010 when I was living at 414. With that said, here is my 1999 video collection as follows:
