One of my favorite official movie websites was for 2004's
Sky Captain. I was disappointed that the site was recently removed. Since this movie is one of my favorites from the 2000s, I was hoping that it might survive like the websites for
Space Jam and
You've Got Mail. Why do movie websites have to die? The deletion of Sky Captain made me think about other past movie websites. I jumped into the
Wayback Machine and discovered you can still access some of these old movie sites. In 1990s world wide web fashion, I've compiled a link list of some old official movie websites. Most still work in one way or another and it's a fun history lesson on late 20th century website design. So grab a can of Surge along with a bag of Doritos 3Ds and click away!
