A few matchups, I abstained because I wasn't familiar with one/both movies. Based on the early vote totals, I wasn't the only one.

The Firm
Carlito's Way
Shakespeare in Love - I've never even seen this movie, but I would watch ANYTHING before watching Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrells again. Hell, I would rather watch my entire family get murdered before I watch that piece of shit movie again.

I voted for BULWORTH, CONTACT and ALADDIN just in time to see that they needed some votes. (C'mon people, CARLITO'S WAY was bad enough, but JACOB'S LADDER????)
There's films in this roundup I never even heard of and some only dimly remembered (HARD EIGHT--is that the rodeo one with Luke Perry?).

The Firm (easily)
The Lion King (Cant believe I vote for a toon over Cronenberg But his Crash is worse than this decades Crash.)
Jacob's Ladder (both films are great but this is one of the scariest horror films in my mind)
Hard Eight (PLeasantville is very good also though. And P.T. anderson not only did HArd Eight but he also did the great Fiona Apple Music Video for her cover of Across the Universe for Pleasantville just FYI)
Carlito's Way (Easily. De Palma's best film.)
Good Will Hunting (Easily)
Funny Games(Original) (Easily , Spanish Prisoner bored the hell outta me.)
Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels
All About My Mother

Re: Favorite Movie of the 90's: Opening Round/Group #4
I went for the bottom pick in almost all cases and am surprised to see so many others did so as well. This could be the most "upset"-filled round of any of these polls I've seen.
