The list just never stops! Back in the day I rented seven movies for seven nights for £10 (old Irish money). They were all action movies - and every one of them had Jean Claude Van Damme as the main actor. They were all the bloody same, yet I didn't give a damn. Ah the good old days,

Off this week and so far went from demolition man - judge dredd - last action hero. Tomorrow is either the rock or me, myself and Irene. Independence Day at some stage too

Demolition Man is great. I once watched a dubbed German version on TV. I had no idea what they were saying; I just thought an extra dose of Teutonic talk might make it even better.

The "so much for the seashells" scene didn't let me down...

Watched Demolition Man and all Taco Bell references were badly dubbed over with Pizza Hut references...

This is a great but little-known 90s independent movie that deserved to do a lot better. If you like that 90s style stoner/crime/dark comedy/drama that many people have mentioned above, then definitely check it out.

put it this way

in your physical DVD/Bluray collections if you still have such things I'd say the vast majority are from the 90's as opposed to the 00's and 10's

That's because DVDs became less important.

What was name of nineties movies came out same time as Jackie Brown, similar storyline ish to Reservoir Dogs, group of men and an assassin. The only thing I can remember is the buckwheat, and putting it somewhere the sun doesn't shine, as an elaborate assassination.
Gah, can't remember name.

And my favourite 90s movie will always be True Romance.

Bill Murray's great 90s role, and career in general, will always be considered to be Groundhog Day, but I think special mention needs to be made of What About Bob, which is a brilliant, somewhat dark comedy.

Some random films I saw in the cinema in the 90s that I can't erase from my memory:

Batman & Robin (as a treat for school attendance. Wish I'd taken a few sick days after)

Lightning Jack (awful comedy western with Crocodile Dundee)

Robin Hood: Men in Tights (one of those 'spoof' films that just isn't that funny)

Terminator 2
Jurassic Park
The Matrix

What a perfect film night

Only ONE passing mention of The Matrix?! TF is wrong with people!
It took filmmaking as we knew it and knocked it into a cocked hat. To my mind it had the same effect on the film industry as Star Wars in it's day.
It was the granddaddy of action movies as we know them now, everything that came after had to measure up. The best comparison of what was before and what came after would be Johnny Mnemonic. Good film in it's day and immediately looked very, very dated.

Oh and Being John Malkovich.
Nother seminal one would be Pulp Fiction.
Apollo 13. I never ever get sick of that movie.
As mentioned Big Lebowski. If I could only watch one movie for the rest of my life, it would have to be this.

I love the Matrix but its not even the best action movies of the 90s.

Jurassic Park had the biggest impact of all movies in the 90s

Matrix 2 and 3 happened and tainted the original.

Dirty Dingus McGee

Scream,Reservoir Dogs and Seven.

All great films and 2 of them are part of trend where movies in the 90's became very self aware which didn't happen as much before that.
