What is the most quintessential 90s movie? (lemmy.world)

Personally I'd go with Independence Day if I had to pick a movie that felt the most 90s.

Six Degrees of Separation

Felt like it was from the 70s.

It's from a period of film when multiplex cinema was exploding, there was so much demand for scripts that indy movies thrived. Six Degrees was so. much. talking. Which I could see how that made it feel like 70s movies a bit I guess.

Edit: same for Slackers.

Edit 2: oh, and The Last Supper

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I looked it up, Six Degrees of Separation was inspired from a real incident in the early 1980s. I was wondering why it felt like something from a decade earlier.

Adventures of Ford Fairlaine? Though it might be 80's rather 90's, despite the movie itself came out in 90'...
