Re: Favorite Movie of the 90's: Round of 128/Group #8

T2 - Sucks for the The Lion King, too. One of the few Disney films that I truly loved.
Dead Man - weak matchup
Unforgiven - I almost went with D&D...almost.
Apollo 13 - I was on-edge the whole movie, even though I knew how it ended
Boogie Nights - not even close
South Park - I'm not one of the TRL > SPR people.
Reservoir Dogs - fairly easy
Tombstone - yeah not a fan of anime.

Terminator 2 (lol. easiest thing in the world this "decision")
Dead Man
Unforgiven
Dark City
Boogie NIghts (easily)
The Thin Red Line (love South pArk but Thin Red Line is a better more beautiful film. South PArk is also 15 minutes too short.)
Reservoir Dogs
Tombstone

I would have picked The Lion King over every other "favorite" in this round.

T2
Unforgiven - almost picked D&D, but this is one of my favorite westerns
Dark City
Boogie Nights - one of the best of the 90s, and Guy Ritchie sucks
The Thin Red Line - South Park rocks though. but come on.
Election
Tombstone

Tough ones here. DARK CITY vs. APOLLO 13--it's painful to pick one over the other. I went with APOLLO 13.

But TOMBSTONE vs. MONONOKE is even tougher. I mean, I just watched MONONOKE again last week and on any day of the week, it's one of the best Japanese films ever. I love TOMBSTONE and consider it one of the best films of the 1990s, but it's no MONONOKE. Sorry, TOMBSTONE fans. Still, unless the MONONOKE fans rally, TOMBSTONE will take it.

Re: Favorite Movie of the 90's: Round of 128/Group #8

Terminator 2
abstain - no American Movie
Dumb and Dumber - pretty tough, really like Unforgiven too
Dark City, I guess
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
The Thin Red Line
Reservoir Dogs by default - I have 0 interest in "Election" & have no plans to ever watch it
Tombstone - same as above + Tombstone is an all-time favorite

It is so tough to choose between South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut and The Thin Red Line since they are essentially the same film.

Re: Favorite Movie of the 90's: Round of 128/Group #8

T2- I like the Lion King, but T2 is incredible and I never get tired of watching it.

Unforgiven- Hated hated hated Dumb and Dumber.

Apollo 13- Seen them both once, in the theatre. I remember Apollow 13 vividly and can't recall a thing about Dark City. That tells me what I need to know.

Boogie Nights- a masterpiece. And Guy Ritchie can lick my balls.

Reservoir Dogs- This was a little tough because I feel that crime/violent/sci-fi movies tend to dominate this board and I thought Election is easily one of the best movies of the 90's... but Reservoir Dogs is really brilliant in an unforgettable way.

Re: Favorite Movie of the 90's: Round of 128/Group #8

The Lion King (I love the first "Terminator", but I'm in the small group that doesn't much care for the second one)
Dead Man
Unforgiven
Dark City
Boogie Nights
The Thin Red Line
Reservoir Dogs (I'm not much of a Tarantino fan, but I actually like this one quite a lot)
Princess Mononoke (I prefer "My Neighbor Totoro", "Kiki's Delivery Service", and "Spirited Away" - but this is still pretty great.)

T2
-
Unforgiven
Apollo 13
Lock Stock
Thin Red Line
Reservoir Dogs
Tombstone

#4 and 5 were the only toughies for me. #5 could have gone the other way very easily, but PTA kinda pisses me off.
