    Columbine made black trench coats fall briefly out of fashion…but The Matrix brought it back a couple of years later.

      They were both 1999. Matrix released in March and Columbine was April 20th (made for a fucked up 4/20 that year…)

        If you take the other interpretation of 4/20 (namely that it is Hitler’s birthday, it’s reasonably appropriate.

        Yeah and immediately after there was some blame placed towards the Matrix.
