Uhh...
There are good movies in the 00`s, but the are a lot of really great ones in the 90`s. I mean legendary movies
some of them:
Terminator 2
Matrix
Forrest Gump
Jurassic Park
anic
Schlinder`s list
Saving private Ryan
Uhh...
anic? rofl
The OP missed a ton of great movies in the 90's.
Fight Club
Shawshank Redemption
Seven
Silence of the Lambs
Resevoir Dogs
Pulp Fiction
Dark City
Natural Born Killers
A ton more....however the 00's had some great movies as well.
As much as I liked Jurassic Park, even I can admit that was some campy lol.
, the Disney/Pixar movies alone are higher quality than a lot of 90s movies (I'm biased, though--I've got a soft spot for kids movies. At least D/P's are well-done, for the most part).
EDIT: Oh, and add Avatar to the list of good 00's films.
I`m not a super fan of anic. I think is a good movie, but when a movie makes over 1000 millions dollars and wins 11 oscars, is hard not to put it in the list
Old movie classics are the best. I liked both anic and Jurassic Park but just watched Jaws again a few days ago and remember when that movie was the . I still have the t-shirt I bought back in the day.
the only thing that is better in the 90's than this decade is the music.
Or so. If anic makes the 90s list, Avatar makes the 00s list by default, if nothing else.
Agreed. It's Dances With Wolves in the future with a bigger budget.
3 of the movies on this list I've never seen, and of the others only Schindler's List interested me enough to see more than once.
I like this list better. But I can't imagine any list of great 90's movies that doesn't include The Big Lebowski, American Beauty, Cinema Paradiso, Braveheart, Toy Story or The Lion King. And there are so many others.
1980s hong kong kungfu/wuxia movies > any era of that genre...
actors back then were focus acting and bringing out the characters, it had a story plot true to some story novels....
Don't forget Kazaam, Godzilla, and Tomb Raider... all legendary
The 90s was the strongest era in Hong Kong cinema. The greatest Gung-fu (Hardboiled), Wuxia (Once Upon a Time in China), and Jackie Chan movie (The Legend of the Drunken Master) were made during the decade.
Not to mention the countless other great films like The Killer, Fist of Legend, Iron Monkey, Full Contact, The Swordsman 2, etc, etc.
80s were great, too. Jackie/Sammo/Yuen Biao were all at their peaks and could do no wrong, putting out one Martial Arts classic after another.
Except jurassic park, wich may no be so good now because it relayed on special effects that are common in these days, i think all the others are really worth watching them.
Yep, pretty much.
Also, I don't know which category to put Memento in, since it came out in 2000.
There are 39 films from the 90s(1990-1999) on IMDB's Top 250 Film list. The same list has 61 films from the 2000s(2000-2009). Here's the movies, in the order they appeared on both lists(i.e. Dark Knight was the highest ranked 2000 film so it appears highest, Shawshank was the highest rank 90s film so it appears at the top). I don't necessarily agree with some of the choices on either list but you have to remember that this is based on user votes:

TDK sucked.
Nah, I would say Batman Begins sucked. TDK at least had Heath Ledger carrying the film on his shoulders. Other than that I agree the movie isn't much to write home about. Batman was boring and Bale was nonsensical with his growling. Maggie G should never, EVER be cast as a love interest and the action, while being improved over Batman Begins, still was kind of choppy.
Exactly. It sucked.
Did your indie hipster website tell you that?
tbh what do you call a Mexican who wants to be white? An eclair maybe? Brown on the outside, cream on the inside?
