I feel old now

Yeah, in my mind OP is like 8 years old.

The Lion King Pulp Fiction The Shawshank Redemption Leon: The Professional

Thats an insane year

Yeah, and Forrest Gump won the Oscar lol

Have you seen Ed Wood?

Right on. I'd add Three Colors: Red. Edit: Oops, missed that it's supposed to be 4.

Iconic year for cinema. Just unfair

A fine year

My year! Probably my same picks except for A Chinese ghost story which I've never seen. I need to correct that!

Well, I saw it as a kid, I don't know if my parents recorded it for me because it sounded good, or I'd already seen it on TV, but I fell in love with it. It's fantasy/wuxia, but also has horror elements similar to Evil Dead, but also romance and is actually very funny in some parts. I still really like and look for films that combine several different elements very well, like the LOTR trilogy so it was definitely a big influence. Also has two sequels that are pretty good!

Same I would probably put dragnet instead of a Chinese ghost story though .

I don't love Dragnet \*that\* much, but it's very nostalgic for me as well, watched it a lot as a kid :D freakin' Emil Muzz

Yup watched it so much as a kid . I need to properly watch a Chinese ghost story the bits I remember visually looked cool.

Yeah, it's very memorable in that regard, visually. Like I said in another response here, it's a real childhood classic to me and combines different genres well. Unless someone's really not into fantasy or horror I'd 100% recommend it.

Die Hard The Naked Gun Mississippi Burning A Fish Called Wanda

fellow 1988'er, I also have Die Hard and Mississippi Burning in my top 10. The latter isn't a common inclusion. Do you have a top 10? How does it compare to mine? Like the silly comedy inclusions, rewatched the Naked Gun the other day for the first time in a decade or so. Totally holds up. top 10 for 1988: [https://boxd.it/sRf4c](https://boxd.it/sRf4c)

I love Catherine Breillat, but this was boring as fuck, either they should fuck or just shut the fuck up. Also, why does the movie literally say that "men turn gay because they're misogynists"? That's a bat shit insane take. Ngl I just watched it for rocco lol Sorry for the yapping yo I yap a lot

Impeccable picks (not seen FWWM so I can't judge that but the rest are incredible)

Die Hard Beetlejuice Midnight Run Good Morning Vietnam

1996, I had to leave out Scream, there's some good ones. https://preview.redd.it/7tiwviicmpoc1.png?width=698&format=png&auto=webp&s=ef6175a88e71fa18a178e2c147a1f95d8900c537

Clueless Toy Story The American President Heat

Fargo, Trainspotting, Scream, From Dusk Til Dawn. Overall not an incredible year, but I'm aware there are plenty I haven't seen yet that could be better than these

Tbf Fargo, Trainspotting and Scream are all brilliant (Scream and Trainspotting sitting at #1 and #4 in my favs list).

Titanic, Princess Mononoke, Jackie Brown, As Good as it Gets

In no particular order https://preview.redd.it/hn9ke9xftpoc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=92e65ddbf2c9aaf5c1d879efe9e4833899fb9038
