I won't bother posting obvious ones that other people will post and instead will post this:

One of my favorite comedies ever and really seems under appreciated seeing as how I almost never see anyone mention it. Gene Hackman is hilarious in it. Fantastic cast all around really.
 
Mainly the disney films including the renaissance films and others like Mulan, Lion King, Nightmare Before Christmas, Beauty and the beast, toy story, toy story 2, etc.

Though for Non disney I would say probably Pulp Fiction and Terminator 2.
 
criminally underrated and never appreciated enough on gaf (although it should be since there is someone called 'breckin' in the cast).

I am happy it did not take long before Gattaca and Dark City were mentioned, my two personal favorites.
Also, The Matrix, The Crow, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Jackie Brown, American Beauty.


And the best and more powerful from my contribution...

Plus so many more, the 90s truely are the golden age of modern cinema
 
The Rocketeer does the whole 30's pulp thing really nice. Might be my favorite comic book film of that era. The Last Boy Scout is the climax of the whole snarky one-liner action hero thing and is infinitely quotable. Johnny Mnemonic is the closest thing we have to a pure cyberpunk film.
 
Slacker
Dazed and Confused

Unforgiven
Falling down
The Fugitive

Groundhog Day

Seven
The Game
Fight Club

La Haine

Rushmore

Blade

Starship Troopers

Boogie Nights

Natural Born Killers

Terminator 2

Cruel Intentions (you can put it anywhere)

True Romance

The Big Lebowski

South Park

Office Space

Leon.

Pretty fucking good decade of movies.

That pretty much covers it. Probably missing quite a few
 
Man, the 90s (and the 80s) were such glory days for good movies.

If I had to pick some favorite 90s movies off the top of my head I'd have to say Terminator 2. RoboCop 2, Batman Returns, The Matrix, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Fugitive, and Fight Club
 
Late 80s to late 90s were the best years for action movies! And that's coming from someone who was born in the 1990s.

Off the top of my head, we had:

Terminator 1 and 2
Face/Off
Con Air
The Rock
Rush Hour
Predator
Aliens
Air Force One

All movies that I watch from beginning to end when I see them on TV.

Rewatched this a couple of months ago. Even funnier now then when I was younger.
 
King_of_the_Hill_1993_Poster.jpg
Cider_house_rules.jpg


King of the Hill (1993) and The Cider House Rules (1999) really resonate with me and haven't been mentioned. They don't make movies like The Cider House Rules or October Sky (1999) or The Green Mile (1999) or Good Will Hunting (1997) anymore.
 
The 90's were the last decade in which major studios made brilliant films in large quantities. I can only hope it gets replicated at least once more in my lifetime.
 
My top five:

1. Lost Highway (David Lynch, 1997)
2. Postman Blues (Sabu, 1997)
3. Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (David Lynch, 1992)
4. Happy Together (Wong Kar-Wai, 1997)
5. Neon Genesis Evangelion (Hideaki Anno, 1997)

Seems like 1997 owns the 90s for me.
 
Jurassic Park
Miller's Crossing
Apollo 13
Goodfellas
Pulp Fiction
The Lion King
Terminator 2 Judgment Day
True Lies
The Castle
Toy Story
Starship Troopers
Jackie Brown
 
I'm fairly sure that's a pic from The Lion King 2, which is definitely not one of the best movies of the 90s.

I think it's promo art from around the time of the Lion King (not an actual still from the movie though).

The art style of the Lion King 2 is very different.
