Probably The Lion King, idk.

Speaking of films, I just looked at the IMDB top 250 list, which I used to look at as a teenager when I was obsessed with films.

Depressing to see how it’s barely changed at all since I last saw it. At least half the films in the top 20 shouldn’t be ranked anywhere near that high.

That first one is godawful.

"A world in which it seems to be agreed that the emotional struggles of teenagers are as valid as the emotional struggles of adults (they’re not, sorry teenagers). "

“American Beauty is the very definition of a “pre-9/11 movie,”…but if there is one thing we can take away from this portrait it is that for as horrible as 9/11 was, maybe we’re better off now, because yuck.”

“At one point he gets a job running the grill at a fast food restaurant because it reminds him of the summer he did that when he was 14. Gross! YOU ARE A FUCKING ADULT WITH A CHILD AND A MORTGAGE! I AM SORRY THAT YOU ARE UNHAPPY IN YOUR MARRIAGE, BUT ALSO IT IS TIME TO GET REAL AND ALSO WORKING AT A FAST FOOD RESTAURANT IS NOT FUN, THIS MOVIE, AND IT’S OBNOXIOUS OF YOU TO EVEN SUGGEST OTHERWISE. Assholes.”

Anyway, to answer the thread

It will be an erotic thriller starring Shannon Tweed or something.

my choice:

[A popular and successful movie that normal people like] is the worst movie of the 90s

I remember the fuss about how shit Showgirls was supposed to be when it came out* but I’m pretty sure the revisionists have declared it a masterpiece

* I’m pretty sure that 14-year-old CCB stayed up especially to watch Barry Norman’s Film Show in the hope of seeing some boobs.

imagine actually thinking this was the worst film of the 90s.

Has anyone mentioned Super Mario Bros yet?? :smiley:

Actually no, it’s too good to be the worst. Just watching the trailer got me all 90s nostalgic

Hackers is pretty horrible. Remember really enjoying it as a kid but tried to watch it again on Netflix recently and couldn’t get through the first hour.

It’s obviously a film that works best for a moody teenager, but the fact that it’s not as good as you remember it being doesnt mean it’s bad.

It’s basically the film equivalent of catcher in the rye

Pretty sure that’s actually Taxi Driver tho

File this along with other videogame movies of the time like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. Not good movies by any means but entertaining!
