WORST of the Best Picture Oscar Noms (Only the '90s Edition)

I won't defend anything on your shit list, but A Few Good Men and Scent of a Woman are two I don't mind, almost certainly owing to the fact that I was 14 when they came out and they looked and talked like real grown-up films that made me feel smart for enjoying them. Had they been released even five years later, I don't know that I would have even seen them, let alone liked them. As it stands, I still prefer either to Apollo 13 and Titanic.

I had to get pretty deep into the list (L.A. Confidential, of which I only have very vague memories) before I found a movie I'd want to watch again.

Four Weddings and a Funeral is listed twice (a guilty pleasure of mine to be honest) and Scent of a Woman isn’t that bad. Shakespeare in Love, however, is war crime worthy.

wtf Apollo 13 is great

smdh @ you Ron Howard haters

Shakespeare In Love is a fine, frothy romcom with Stoppard jokes in

Sitting in a theatre as a bunch of adults crack up over the piss-in-space scene in Apollo 13 is one of the most mortified I've ever felt during a movie.

lol -- like I wrote on Facebook, that typo might be Freudian: I don't know what to think about that film.

It's definitely one of the two non-heinous theatrical films by Richard Curtis.

Do you force yourself to watch all of them? I haven't done that to myself with The Green Mile yet (but I plan to watch the imdb top 250 this year), and a few minutes of Awakenings on TV were enough for me.

If we're judging on the basis of # of times watched and how frequently I feel the urge to revisit, The Fugitive is pretty much the hands-down winner of this lot for me. It's joined the Robocop/Dazed & Confused pantheon of 'movies I am never not in the mood to watch'.

Oh wait, this is a thread for the worst, how do I salvage my mistake...

The Fugitive ya right more like The F-U-gitive

I have only had 4 beers, I am not deterred from climbing MoonTower

xpost I don't know why I did a backslash instead of a comma. But I'm pretty sure that hypothetical movie mashup is in fact The Entertainment as featured in the novel Infinite Jest (i.e. I would watch it until I was dead from entertainment).

The Piano is pretentious twaddle. The Insider is fake grittiness.
