Now, this is more like it: GOODFELLAS, CHUNGKING EXPRESS, BARTON FINK, SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, JACKIE BROWN and INDEPENDENCE DAY. Now we're talking some decent-to-great 1990's movies.
(Woody, please correct the spellings of "Chungking" and "Independence" in your poll.)

I will ask a mod to correct the spelling issues. Thanks for catching it.

Matchup #1 (abstain . havnt seen Quiz show and Goodfellas is overrated.)

City of the Lost Children (easily)
Silence of the Lambs
The Insider
Jackie Brown (easily)
Chasing Amy

Goodfellas - easily. I don't think it's overrated at all.
The Game - Neither is great, the Game is a bit better imo
Abstain - Seen both, don't care for either
Barton Fink - Both are pretty good, and pretty weird, I picked Barton but could go either way
Silence of the Lambs - This might be a bit overrated, but it's still really good
Happiness - Both good, prefer Happiness, even though it makes me squeamish as hell
Jackie Brown - Easily, Leaving Lost Vegas is pretty good but I don't ever want to see it again. Jackie Brown I like more every time I see it.
Chasing Amy - Easily, probably Kevin Smith's best (this or Dogma). Independence Day has some nice explosions but it's just so stupid

I know it is going to get killed, but I had to vote for Quiz show. It is one of my all time favorite movies. It was one of the first movies I watched multiple times.

Re: Favorite Movie of the 90's: Round of 128/Group #1
No need for nervousness, I voted for QUIZ SHOW as well. I love both movies, easily putting them as two of the best movies of the 90s, but I've seen GOODFELLAS so many times by now (and seen it satirized, ripped-off, and completely misunderstood by scores of fanboys, hacks, and lowlifes) that QUIZ SHOW is, in my eyes, more refreshing. Plus it probably is a slightly better movie.

Goodfellas - tough draw for Quiz Show. It is better than pretty much every other movie on this list, but not Goodfellas
The Game - pretty close but the edge goes to Fincher
Chungking Express - easy
City of Lost Children - not a barton fink fan
Silence of the Lambs - easy
Insider - easy
Jackie Brown - tough one
ID4 - neither of these is any good but at least ID4 doesn't involve Kevin Smith.
