A lot of 80s movies were great, but havent aged as well for me as the 90s stuff.

The 90s were definitely a technological turning point and was really when the big budget blockbuster was born with stuff like Independence Day and Jurassic Park. There was only 3 years between Total Recall and Jurassic Park and the technological leap is akin to the one between 2d and 3d gaming. The difference in realism was staggering.

It's either 90's or 2000's for me. I'll supply some big dogs from the 2000's:

- LotR Trilogy
- The comic book movie renaissance begins and hits its dominant streak (X-Men Trilogy, Spider-Man Trilogy, The Incredibles, Sin City, 300, A History of Violence, Road to Perdition, Watchmen, Iron Man, and especially The Dark Knight)
- No Country for Old Men
- There Will be Blood
- Pixar masterpieces: the aforementioned Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Up, and Wall-E
- Spirited Away
- Gladiator
- Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
- Children of Men
- The Departed
- The Prestige
- Kill Bill Volumes 1 & 2, Inglorious Basterds
- Avatar
- Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz
- Slumdog Millionaire
- Shrek 2
- Casino Royale

Sorry, it's a close race for me though I promise. Throw my main man Alex Proyas' films The Crow and Dark City on the 90's list. And Mortal Kombat, Dumb & Dumber, and Billy Madison/Happy Gilmore combo 🙂 🙂 🙂

Yeah, I left out a lot of 90's films. Just the ones that came to my head. 00's is pretty great with TDK and LOTR trilogy, but I prefer the action, comedy, and dramas from the 90's. 90's also had the first Toy Story.

I forgot to mention a lot of the great Anime the 90's had. Ninja Scroll, Perfect Blue, Ghost in the Shell, etc...

Not to mention classic Jackie Chan: Supercop, Rumble in the Bronxe, Wheels on Meals, Drunken Master, etc...

It's hard to say.

Each decade got many many good movies.

Every decade has got a lot of great movies in them so it's impossible to decide.

I will say though that the early 2000s feels really weak. There weren't an overabundance of great films until like 2005 or so.
