There is a debate on Twitter arguing that 1994 is the best year for movies ever. Does anyone here agree?

1994: The Lion King, Forrest Gump, Pulp Fiction, The Crow, The Mask, True Lies, The Shawshank Redemption, Ace Venture, The Flinstones, Clerks, D2: Mighty Ducks, Dumb and Dumber, Natural Born Killers, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Little Giants, Speed, Leon: The Professional, etc.

Some magazine did an article on this and said - if it's not about award winners but simply fun movies you want to watch over and over again...it's 1984.
