Nice list, but it pales in comparison to '84.


It’s obviously a subjective thing, but having 5 movies in the IMDb top 50 for 1994 and 0 movies in the IMDb top 50 for 1984 makes for a decently strong case.

I used to always think 84 was peak because of the movies and albums that came out that year. The 90's really had some insanely well done movies though. And I'm a big fan of music from the 90's as well. All to say being Gen X had a great 25+ year stretch of great film and music.
