if we judge it by the total time i have spent watching and rewatching these movies on cable in my life, then 1993 is the clear winner. this is only the most sensible and accurate judgement method.

we'll let the people decide, puni

I can say this tho, the early-mid 90's was the peak of cinema.

come on, friends. i was just going off online user-ratings for the masses on those. i just just really love days of thunder, and dances with wolves, the rest were a lackluster attempt to make the list as long as the others.

he really doesnt let the input of others account for very much does he.  like, say there was a thread about the best sniper OAT, and say someone actually said who that person is.  he would probably not even take that into account because others opinions on a subjective subject don't matter to him.
