This may be true, but for a solid 5 year run, Tommy Boy was the funniest comedy out there, and as I was like 13 at the time, I enjoyed it more than any comedy I have ever seen in my life. Based on that, Tommy Boy will probably make my top 5, definitely top 10.

I still hold it in high regard for the many laughs it gave me through the years and the quotes that can be used from it. However from my brief encounter a few weeks back, I think I am better served not rewatching it in full ever again to maintain the fond memories that I have of it.

1 Glengarry Glen Ross
2 Jacob's Ladder
3 The Usual Suspects
4 Dead Alive
5 All About My Mother
6 La Haine

Im thinking of starting a weekly M/TB Board WOULD YOU RATHER.
What say yal?

Well on my list I have a lot of the usual suspects, like The Usual Suspects. Also heavy on the Coens with 3 movies but none of which being Fargo or Lebowski there two most famous ones of the 90s. I even have Keanu Reeves movies for the haters.

90s were a fun time for me, my teenage years. 90s & 70s are the two best decades in the post classic era and it's no surprise that in the 90s retro 70s was very much in vogue.

So here's my picks pretty much all popular movies nothing really obscure at all thought about having a couple that I like a lot but after 2000s voting and have like 4 or 5 movies not get ranked at all I decided against it.


*Alright got around to ranking them which I hate doing so take it with a grain of salt any movie worth getting in my top 20 is a good movie regardless of how I ranked them.*

Unforgiven is my #1 as it was my favorite movie all throughout the 90s itself.


1) Unforgiven (1992)
2) Twelve Monkeys (1995)
3) Dark City (1998)
4) Miller's Crossing (1990)
5) The Usual Suspects (1995)
6) Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)
7) The Player (1992)
8) Goodfellas (1990)
9) The Hudsucker Proxy (1994)
10) The Last of the Mohicans (1992)
11) Gattaca (1997)
12) Groundhog Day (1993)
13) Barton Fink (1991)
14) Carlito's Way (1993)
15) Braveheart (1995)
16) Joe Versus the Volcano (1990)
17) L.A. Confidential (1997)
18) Point Break (1991)
19) The Matrix (1999)
20) The Silence of the Lambs (1991)



It was tough leaving some out and I know some people wanted Freauxzen to go to 25 but then were do you draw the line 30, 50? Lot of good movies in the 90s.


I won't list any honorables because I'm sure most of them will make other people's ballots.

To make it worse I now share an office with an older guy. Well he had someone in here helping him with some stuff while I was reading that thread. Suppressed laughter is the worst. I had to act like I was going to use the phone and walked outside to laugh my arse off.
