I really wanted to vote against Jurassic Park after the recent clamor here to vote it up on the imdb's rankings. But alas, I've never really cared for Good Will Hunting.

I'm really surprised at the love for the Fugitive. I thought this crew would be on Bruce's side all the way. Good for the Fugitive.

I love Jurassic Park but that thread was beyond absurd.

Didn't that thread consist of just one guy saying JP was the best movie EVER! and the rest of the posts were just laughing at him?

Re: Favorite Movie of the 90's: Round of 128/Group #3

I made a mistake and clicked "vote" too early and only voted for the first two match-ups. Regardless, here are my picks:

Heat
The Fugitive
Hate them both
Miller's Crossing
Jurassic Park (JP is far from great, but I HATE Good Will Hunting)
Hate them both
N/A (Never seen The Ice Storm)
Total Recall

The hate for Titanic is just ridiculous. The same can be said about Forrest Gump.

I can't believe Fear and Loathing even got into this contest.

Re: Favorite Movie of the 90's: Round of 128/Group #3

Matchup #1: Heat 82 70.09%
Matchup #1: Wayne's World 27 23.08%

Heat for me. I can only assume there's 27 people that haven't seen the film.


Matchup #2: The Fugitive 58 49.57%
Matchup #2: Army of Darkness 50 42.74%

Fugitive here. AoD's schlockiness is a bit too forced for my taste.


Matchup #3: Titanic 50 42.74%
Matchup #3: Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas 47 40.17%

I bought the CC DVD and I could barely make it through the first twenty minutes. I turned it off in boredom. Gilliam just doesn't resonate with me.


Matchup #5: Jurassic Park 61 52.14%
Matchup #5: Good Will Hunting 40 34.19%

Jurassic Park may be the most disappointing big-budget adaptation of all time.
