Forrest Gump will always remain close to me, since i believe it was the first really serious/arty movie i ever saw (more like something without toilet humor and or lots of explosions 
) First saw that at age 11 on tape. if i recall, the reason i wanted to see it was the ping pong scene in the trailer. Although i believe that Pulp fiction did deserve the best picture oscar for that year.

I went with Back to the Future. It's just an extremely entertaining movie that I think nobody dislikes. I never was a fan of Gump, though I dislike Pulp Fiction even more. Of the movies nominated for best pic in 94, I would have went with Shawshank.

Back To The Future and Used Cars are two of my all time favourites. ("Fifty bucks never killed anybody!") I think with the exception of Polar Express, every movie on this poll is pretty damn decent. Zemeckis has a great catalogue IMO.

I *DESPISE* Forrest Gump with a loathing usually reserved for Hitler. A more crass celebration of collective idiocy, I have yet to see.
That having been said, it was a tight race between BTTF and Roger Rabbit but ultimately I went with WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT. That movie is absolutely magical.
