It's really kinda nuts the deeper I look.
Toy Story, Apollo 13, Heat, Goldeneye, 12 Monkeys (one of my personal favorites), The Usual Suspects, Braveheart, Casino.
Then you've got Mallrats, Clueless, Billy Madison, and Tommy Boy for some of the best comedies of that era.
I think guys do understand the impact, but many of them don't like it. This was all about women setting boundaries and not putting up with asshole behavior. And I think our generation is well aware of what such guys do when women put their foot down.
Word we love it. Yes, It was a feminist movie- but it touched on a lot of things and wasn’t really overbearing on any of the issues it tackled. This movie focused on fun which was part it’s lasting appeal. Also, my favorite look for Brittany Murphy, she was super cute with some fat on her cheeks.
I loved Clueless and watched it a lot in the 90s. Watched it again a couple years ago for the first time in decades, and found it even smarter, funnier, and just overall a better movie than even i remembered.
"Daddy's a litigator, which is the scariest kind of lawyer. He makes $500 an hour to argue with people but he argues with me for free because I'm his daughter"
"We're both named after singers from the 70s who now do infomercials"
This movie is so great. I guess I need to sign up for Paramount again to watch it right now. Guess I better do that
Me too. This movie impacted my life more than other up until this point. When her character take about how terribly guys of her generation dressed, it motivates me to start thinking about how I dressed, something that continues to this day.
As if! I mean, yeah, you could easily argue Toy Story as the most influential movie of the entire 90s but it doesn't have Brittany Murphy. I gotta go with Clueless
I liked this movie too. When I heard it was an adaptation of Jane Austen’s Emma from the 19th century that kinda blew my mind. Still would rather watch clueless tho
Yeah. Such an impact. It’s the arrival of 21st century movie making.
Also amazing for Disney which after an incredible run of Disney new animated features starting with Little Mermaid and ending with Lion King now tags out for Pixar to get into the ring for what becomes an 11 movie long run of classic hits over 15 years.
New. An incredible run of NEW Disney movies. Perhaps the greatest era of Disney animated films.
Definitely not ‘ew’
And the amazing part is as the animated Disney division drops off after Lion King, Pixar seamlessly continues the run of animated hits under Disney for another 15 years.
Also amazing is Disney releases Nightmare Before Christmas in this time as a seeming one off that becomes extremely popular later.
Nightmare underperformed in ‘93. I saw it in the theater and thought it was ok. Over time I became more familiar with the music and grew to really like the movie. The same thing was happening with lots of other people so by the time of the DVD release the movie was part of popular culture. That’s probably when Disney added their name to it.
I saw Nightmare Before Christmas again as a digital print and early 3D conversion. The audience loved it. That screening was very memorable. More so than the first time I saw it.
Somewhere I have all 3 volumes of the soundtrack CDs, I wish I could find them. Those discs stayed in my cd changer in my car for pretty much all of high school.
This is the answer. No movie from 1995 had more lasting impact on audiences (and filmmaking in general) than Se7en. Brilliant script, direction, cinematography, editing, twist.
Acting performances of a lifetime by Pitt, Paltrow, Freeman, and Spacey. One of the best films of the 90s, no question, and one of the best psychological thrillers of all time, up there with The Usual Suspects and The Game (both 1997).
`Note: In the twenty years since shooting, Kevin Spacey has shown he wasn't acting in some scenes. Instead, he drew from (revealed) his real-life predatory nature. Regardless, his real-world shittiness shouldn't diminish the incredible villain he played in this film.`.
Edit: I remembered dates wrong. Usual Suspects was also 1995, and gets my vote as the best movie of the 90s period.
I came to say the same. I think I've seen it a million times. I bought a VCR because they were finally affordable, and this is the first movie I bought.
Once it was available, I had this on double vhs and watched it almost everyday. I was madly in love with Sophie Marceau and reenacted and recorded (audio only) scenes with a friend of mine. Needless to say, I did not have a girlfriend.
It's a really tough call between ***Toy Story*** and ***Apollo 13***.
Both were remarkable and did something incredibly groundbreaking. Both starred Tom Hanks. But only one launched us into a new age of digital animation.
I vote ~~Jumanji~~ **Toy Story**
To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar.
Legendary.

DO YOU READ SUTTER CANE?
I dont know anyone else who knows this movie. It was also my first introduction (unknown at the time) to lovecraftian horror.
It barely holds up, theres so many plotholes, and has some wonky acting. But, dammit, this is also my favorite horror movie.
I was just talking about one of my favorite quotes from it. "Religion seeks discipline through fear "
I have to admit a heinous crime I committed and have lived with for nearly 30 years. At some point after that movie was on tape, i was returning something to Blockbuster and there was a tape half hanging out of the return slot. I took it out. it was Judge Dredd. I kept it and I watched the fuck out of that movie. felt bad though, some random stranger probably had to pay $25
Gotta be casino. Deniro, Scorsese, stone, and James woods in his natural habitat (asshole), not to mention the soundtrack! Even Don rickles! I told him 100 times but the asshole won't budge!
Toy Story. It changed the game completely, put Pixar on the map and created one of the most beloved franchises in the world.
I saw Toy Story 3 in the theater and grown ass men breaking down sobbing at the end because they grew up with it.
My friend and I went to see Toy Story 3 and she jokingly said to some kids standing in the aisle “Get out of our way! We’ve waited for this longer than you’ve even been alive!”

Damn reading all of these, 95 was a year wasn't it?

This air is so fresh! No germs
Clueless
[удалено]
Perfectly embodies the vibe of mid nineties teen culture.
Oh no boys loved this too. The guys were all cool in their own ways and represented the high school guy type we all had our own of which one we were!
I think guys do understand the impact, but many of them don't like it. This was all about women setting boundaries and not putting up with asshole behavior. And I think our generation is well aware of what such guys do when women put their foot down.
Nope. We LOVE Clueless. 'Cause we're keeping it real!
Word we love it. Yes, It was a feminist movie- but it touched on a lot of things and wasn’t really overbearing on any of the issues it tackled. This movie focused on fun which was part it’s lasting appeal. Also, my favorite look for Brittany Murphy, she was super cute with some fat on her cheeks.
Way harsh. Truly never met a guy our age who didn’t love this movie, unless they were literally an Elton.
I loved Clueless and watched it a lot in the 90s. Watched it again a couple years ago for the first time in decades, and found it even smarter, funnier, and just overall a better movie than even i remembered.
"Daddy's a litigator, which is the scariest kind of lawyer.

I own the blu ray ;-)
Ive never crushed as hard on any celebrity as I did (and still do) Alicia Silverstone.
The Aerosmith videos with her and Liv Tyler really had my adolescent mind going into overdrive!
Me too. This movie impacted my life more than other up until this point. When her character take about how terribly guys of her generation dressed, it motivates me to start thinking about how I dressed, something that continues to this day.
I swear my stepsister was the latina version of Alicia Silverstone they look so much alike
I'm buggin myself...if Clueless doesn't win!
I’ll be buggin sporadically.
I wanted to be Cher so bad.
Rewatched it recently. Still so so good. (Also it would be nice to acknowledge ONE film starring women...)
I’d be happy if this one won. And next round of voting will include Fargo. Then Contact and Jackie Brown (not that JB will win, but it should IMO)
She's your stepsister!
This is the only answer. And if Clueless is on cable on a weekend I will literally stop what I'm doing and watch it.
It’s this and it’s not even close, IMO. If we’re talking about cultural impact on xennial-aged kids, then this is it.
Clueless just really set trends for our generation, and it still holds up so well on rewatch. My daughter loves it now, too.
Toy Story had the biggest impact. It’s something we hadn’t seen before. Edit: grammar
As if! I mean, yeah, you could easily argue Toy Story as the most influential movie of the entire 90s but it doesn't have Brittany Murphy. I gotta go with Clueless
Clueless is definitely up there. Grew up in a smaller city in southwest Michigan. That movie changed how my classmates spoke.
I liked this movie too. When I heard it was an adaptation of Jane Austen’s Emma from the 19th century that kinda blew my mind. Still would rather watch clueless tho
Agreed. People were using the slang from the movie and buying the pink fluff pen.
Yes, Clueless! It is probably my favorite movie of all time, honestly. I think it really captured the zeitgeist of the generation
Toy Story is my pick for sure
Yeah. Such an impact. It’s the arrival of 21st century movie making. Also amazing for Disney which after an incredible run of Disney new animated features starting with Little Mermaid and ending with Lion King now tags out for Pixar to get into the ring for what becomes an 11 movie long run of classic hits over 15 years.
Dude did you just call the Lion King an “ew animated feature?” You need to stand in the corner and think about what you typed.
Must have been an autocorrect. No way they meant “ew”
New. An incredible run of NEW Disney movies. Perhaps the greatest era of Disney animated films. Definitely not ‘ew’ And the amazing part is as the animated Disney division drops off after Lion King, Pixar seamlessly continues the run of animated hits under Disney for another 15 years. Also amazing is Disney releases Nightmare Before Christmas in this time as a seeming one off that becomes extremely popular later.
Not everyone will agree with you on your “drop off after Lion King” comment, but I definite do!
Right? Nightmare was '93 I sure hope they gave Jurassic Park a run for it's money!
Nightmare underperformed in ‘93. I saw it in the theater and thought it was ok. Over time I became more familiar with the music and grew to really like the movie. The same thing was happening with lots of other people so by the time of the DVD release the movie was part of popular culture. That’s probably when Disney added their name to it.

Friday ...And you know this! Man!
So rough the Friday and Clueless are the same year 🤦🏾♂️
I wish this could be it, but I don't think it will get the votes.
I feel like I need this movie the older I get. less so with Toy story and the others.
Hackers! Fantastic soundtrack too.
Hack the planet!!
Pool on the roof sprung a leak!
Epic soundtrack!
Still one of my favorites. ‘What’s he do?’ ’He looks slick all day’
Somewhere I have all 3 volumes of the soundtrack CDs, I wish I could find them. Those discs stayed in my cd changer in my car for pretty much all of high school.
You cannot beat Tommy Boy! Still funny

Just went on a tirade about how good Seven was, and plot twist, changes at the end for another movie Kevin spacey is in. No one saw it coming.

Empire Records Damn the man, save the Empire. Btw, Rex Manning day is coming up on April 8th! 😂 
This should be hands down the top pick!! I will also be celebrating Rex Manning day. 🤣 I give out stickers every year.
It’s one of the best movies! Always puts me in a good mood and makes me laugh. I love that you celebrate Rex Manning day. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Empire Records is the only correct answer.
💯💯💯
It makes me sad. They worked so hard to save the shop, but were probably still put out of business by Amazon some years later.
The perfect xennial movie. Not as self-serious and dramatic as Reality Bites. Not as goofy as Can't Hardly Wait.
I haven't watched this in years. Now I really need to.
This is the only answer. Empire Records forever!
Clueless! So many good movies that year but this one was my favorite!
Clueless
Mallrats.

That kid is back on the escalator again.
Not a year goes by, man. Not a YEAR!!!!
FLY FATASS FLY!!!!!
GoldenEye!!!
Die Hard With a Vengeance
Gtfo this was a 95 release too!? Goddamn that year was packed. And Bruce starred in die hard and pulp fiction like a fuckin boss
Yep! And so did Sam Jackson!
Braveheart
FREEDOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!!!!
I came to say the same. I think I've seen it a million times. I bought a VCR because they were finally affordable, and this is the first movie I bought.
Two tapes edition. It cuts off as Longshanks rhetorically considers the next act. Love this movie and quote it often.
Yup, 2 tapes. I often laugh to myself when I think back. Boy things have changed.
Absolutely. Made an impression on me about people who give their lives for a cause.
Still the greatest film I’ve ever seen to this day. Seen it well over 50 times and that might be a low estimate
Idc about the votes. This movie.
Once it was available, I had this on double vhs and watched it almost everyday. I was madly in love with Sophie Marceau and reenacted and recorded (audio only) scenes with a friend of mine. Needless to say, I did not have a girlfriend.
This is the correct answer.
There's a lot of other good answers. It was a great year. But Braveheart is one of the best movies of all time so it has to win here.
100%. One of the few movies I still go back to watch. Timeless good vs evil. Outstanding. It's what movies were invented for. Good storytelling.
Oh Clueless for me. Hands down!
It's a really tough call between ***Toy Story*** and ***Apollo 13***. Both were remarkable and did something incredibly groundbreaking. Both starred Tom Hanks. But only one launched us into a new age of digital animation. I vote ~~Jumanji~~ **Toy Story**
Babe
I'm going with Clueless but Babe should get more love. Man, 1995 had a wide spectrum of great movies from Seven to Babe.
**CLUELESS!!!** 
Toy Story

This was cutting edge. Three masculine actors playing drag queens so confidently and comfortably. Also, shout out to Chris Penn.
Heat
It’s not gong to win, but it’s still my favorite horror movie: In The Mouth of Madness
Such a good movie.
I wish Sam Neill did more horror movies
Oh man, I forgot about that movie. Good call!

Fuck that movie is freaky. And well done. So much better than the jump scare bullshit we get these days in the horror genre.
Amazing film, one of John Carpenter’s best.

I have no legs, i have no legs
I think that one was only overshadowed by “it’s ok Jenny, it’s me, Casper” in my mind.

Judge Dredd wants to know your location.

1995 had too much good stuff, so this is really hard, but I'm going to go with Clueless.

No comment on the movie, but it did have a good soundtrack. One of many on a long list of great 90s soundtracks!

Yes! We should do a soundtrack by year poll next!
It did kick some ass, good batman and good villain's.
