priest_of_syrinx Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 1994 was pretty impressive too. The Lion King Forrest Gump The Mask Dumb and Dumber Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (what's with all the Jim Carrey?) Clerks Naked Gun 33 1/3 Nell The Pagemaster (I LOVED this movie when I was a kid) Pulp Fiction The Shawshank Redemption Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush Cocky Posted July 22, 2010 Author Share Posted July 22, 2010 Re: 1997, I forgot a big one......"Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" That was the 3rd John Cusack movie of 1997, and Kevin Spacey was fantastic in his role as a southern gentleman.

Stormtron Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 (edited) 97 was pretty good. I don't agree about Spawn though, that was a piece of shit. I was a big fan of the comics and hated the movie. Good call on Event Horizon. That movie is very underrated, although I think it's gained a bit of a cult following now. More greatness from 1997: Princess Mononoke Donnie Brasco Boogie Nights (Don Cheadle FTW!) Chasing Amy Wag the Dog Lost Highway Anaconda (I don't care, this is a great B-movie) Cube I Married a Strange Person (Animated movie by Bill Plympton.....one huge WTF of a film) And the best film of 1997: Leprechaun 4: In Space Edited July 22, 2010 by Storm Shadow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeddyRulz Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 It was a good year for movies, even though I don't go too crazy for "Titanic." I was the manager of a video store near Boston that year. Yes, it was a good year for new releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
English Muffin Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Of course '98 had the best movie ever made - The Legend of 1900 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyRulz Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 My favorite of '97 was probably "Good Will Hunting." In 1998, in was light-heated fare like "The Truman Show" and "There's Something About Mary" for me. (To this day, I still haven't seen the heavy "Saving Private Ryan.") John Irving fanatic that I am, in 1999 I would've chosen "Cider House Rules" if not for the amazing "American Beauty." Any other year I would've picked "CHR," but "American Beauty" was so good that it tops Irving. (At least Irving won for Best Adapted Screenplay of his own novel.)

circumstantial tree Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I don't like Titanic as much as I used to thanks to all the nonstop ridicule it got, but it was a great thing to see on a movie screen - which I was lucky enough to see on opening night because tickets for the movie sold out fast.

Rush Cocky Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 QUOTE (danielmclark @ Jul 22 2010, 10:27 PM) Best movie of 1997? Batman & Robin. Okay, not really. OMG! When it opened, we had that POS running on FOUR screens. I saw the movie, and I was like WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? The next week, it was on 3 screens. The week after that we amazingly lost another print and it was on but 2 screens. It didn't take too much longer before we were down to 1 screen, and then it was outta here. Word of the suckage factor of this movie spread like wildfire. That thing had more corn in the first half hour than my entire bucket of X-Large popcorn. Truly AWFUL.

Boots Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I liked Madonna in Evita. Her voice was at its best in that one because she hired a vocal coach to improve it. Evita was a cinematic masterpiece. Madonna had a bigger influence on me than my own mother. I'm not kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
