I enjoyed the 93 movie but my favorite one is the 1973 version.
IMDB
Looks like its currently on Prime, might have to watch it again.

Same. That movie was 90s gold.

Exactly. Saw them both. The 1973 version (and its near immediate sequel, The Fourth Musketeer) is an absolute classic. The 1993 version is fun, but basically a remake with the brat pack and can't hold a candle to the Richard Lester version, in terms of production values, acting and cast:
Michael York--> Chris O'Donnell
Oliver Reed--> Kiefer Sutherland
Richard Chamberlain--> Charlie Sheen
Faye Dunaway--> Rebecca deMornay
Charlton Heston--> Tim Curry
Christopher Lee--> Michael Wincott
Raquel Welch--> Julie Delpy

I prefer the hot as balls Faye Dunaway version.

The 1973 version (and its near immediate sequel, The Fourth Musketeer) is an absolute classic.
This resulted in the Salkind Clause in a future contracts keeping producers from doing that without renegotiating a new contract.
It also resulted in their filming Superman: The Movie and Superman II at the same time, since they realized how much they could save, even with paying the actors for two films.

Never have watched that version of The Three Musketeers. I'm a very big fan of the 1972 version.
