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.

Do the Right Thing - Spike Lee

Prep for the 90s.

This isn't the most quintessential 90's movie, or even a good movie, but the fever dream of Romeo+Juliet (1996) is the most 90's thing I've ever seen in my life.

It isn't a movie itself, but the "work sucks" genre of films had its peak in the 90's, specifically 1999.

It's funny, at the time we probably would've said Reality Bites.
