Big deal, July 1991 had Terminator 2, Hot Shots!, Point Break, and Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey! November 1990 had Home Alone, Dances With Wolves, Three Men and a Little Lady, Misery, Predator 2, Jacob's Ladder, and Rescuer's Down Under!

Lately we have a local school that is using Jurassic Park theme music for the bell. Maybe they should change it to something from pulp fiction next.

We always knew the 90s was when it was great, the Matrix told us so.

I was 10! I DID see Jurassic Park in theatres. 30 years later and I can still remember how the atmosphere in the room just... changed... when they look up at the brontosaurus legs and that score begins.

Dragon Ball Z, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure were all running in Shonen Jump the same year. Yoshikage Kira explained his desire to live a quiet life on the same day that the Supreme Kai explained who Majin Buu was and Sensui killed Yusuke: November 29, 1993.

If we're going to make 'merica great again, can we make it like it was in the 90's? Not the fucking 50's.

Jurassic park, then watch Gump, then finish on a high with Shawshank. Everyone has to do my thing bc it's the only way and if you do it wrong you die. Probably. I dono. I'm not a doctor. Or maybe I am? I forgot this is the Internet.

And here I thought Shawshank was older than all of these movies, and Pulp fiction came before Jurassic part for a good two years.

These albums released within 2 months of each other in 1991. The early 90's were good. --- I stole this pic from another post.

I think I watched JP first, then Forest Gump, and Pulp Fiction third. I didn't see Shawshank until it was on video. Can't believe my dad let me watch Pulp Fiction at 13.

Shawshank didn't do well in theaters at all, and honestly against that line up, it's hard to blame people. A movie about men on death finding hope is a hard sell comparatively.

Ha - In the space of six weeks in 1984, Temple of Doom, Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Search for Spock, The Karate Kid, Conan The Destroyer and Top Secrect! were all in theatres

Sad I can only upvote one time for your exclamation point in Top Secret! Conan The Destroyer is good but not enough to be in that excellent list imho.

‘94 was when final fantasy 6 came out along with super Metroid, and donkey Kong country. 94 was definitely a good year. 97 was really great too

'94 was also the last time the New York Rangers won the Stanley Cup. Truly the peak of humanity.

Good movies, good games, good performance of the one sport I enjoy. Take me back there.

Jurassic Park is such an exquisitely made film. I watched some of it recently after several years and it still holds up nicely!

I’m against the idea that the plot of movies, novels, stories in general, can be spoiled after a time. Future generations deserve to enjoy these stories as their authors intended them to, as we did in our time. Spoil has no time.

Rabbits and Chickens eat their own feces and they're delicious and nutritious though. So... not a rule I can really get behind.

Are rabbits nutritious? I always heard that you should avoid eating it if possible but WebMD says otherwise.

1 year ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

If you eat solely rabbit (or supplement it with very little else) you'll die as it is high in protein and very low in fat, resulting in protein poisoning (or "rabbit starvation"). As part of a broader diet there's no issue.

I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

So by that rationale, if a pig had a better personality he would cease to be a filthy animal

Was still in theaters then.. Jurassic Park was a HUGE movie in terms of special effects. It was the first time nearly everyone saw photo-realistic CGI. Before this, you could ALWAYS tell if something as complicated as a dinosaur was fake. Kind of like AI now, people were starting to grasp that there is going to be a lot of hard to detect bullshit in our future.

Jurassic Park was the highest grossing film in theaters every day of October 1994 except for the one day where The Flintstones edged past it.
