I'd say the early 90s movies have a quality to them that most late 90s movies lack, a byproduct of shifting tastes among Hollywood execs that gave us things like American Godzilla and the Star Wars prequels.

1899 was a pretty good year for movies. "Train pulling into the station" "Two people kissing for a brief moment" "Horse running in a field" Good times. I miss the Cinematograph.

2006 and 2007 were great movie years too i feel. Really it was 2008 with the release of iron man where poo poo seemed to really go downhill

Actually, yeah, it was. A LOT of content put out that year that still probably has some recognition to it. But the 1999 effect really starts a bit sooner, probably. 1997 with two big cinema events: The Star Wars SEs that pretty starts to pave the way Episode One, and Titanic which lasts for months in theaters during 1998. The internet from around that time is just getting some real hype going. Then, in late 1998 you get Shakespeare In Love that gets a similar repeat performance all through the first half of 1999 so as to practically be a 1999 film. I'd say we could probably scroll back to the last few months of 1998 to be the unofficial start of 1999. But now I'm trying to figure out, "When did 1999 end, unofficially?" We get the then-typical dumping ground of Jan-March for movies in 2000, and going through it it feels like the last thing that has anything close to the 1999 'vibe' going on is probably about Feb 2000. After that, it seems like you have a LOT more forgettable, unremarkable movies come out for the next several months that are quickly forgotten, with anything that seems memorable being few and far between for the rest of the year.

Never Been Kissed needs a remake. Bieber Been Kissed: Justin Bieber realizes he's never had a normal high school experience, so he pretends to be a 17 year old boy and puts on a pair of glasses to disguise himself in order to attend and graduate like everyone else.

The second time I saw No Country for Old Men the dumbass next to me was fiddling with his phone the whole film. I didn't even mind, I was looking forward to his bewildered reaction to the end credits. He didn't disappoint.

Wizard Master posted:1999 was such a great year for movies! Scanning the movies released that year reveals one classic film after another. It featured the final work by one of cinema's greatest masters in Eyes Wide Shut, whilst showcasing the emerging talents in films such as The Sixth Sense, Being John Malkovich and Magnolia. Of course, the film also played host to films that would become cultural touchstones for years to come including Fight Club, The Matrix and The Blair Witch Project, the latter two of whom would influence countless movies for years to come. What was your favourite movie from 1999? I take it you're reading this book? We're only here to un-do the damage you've done to our family name.

Oh that was the OP? Blair Witch Project? I saw that in the cinema and my friend an I loving hated it. So did a lot of the audience cause there were lots of people were booed(no this is not an attempt at a jump pun scare) at the end. Worst horror movie before Paranormal Activity took that crown. Your link intrigues me though. 3 Kings was a fine film from memory.
