Is there anything worse than 90's Hollywood blockbusters?
Advertisements [?]
I'm not a snob. I adore the fantasias of Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Robert Zemekis, James Cameron and Peter Jackson.

They're marvelous storytellers. But with few exceptions ("Jurassic Park," "Terminator 2"), they spent the duration of the 90's tackling more dramatic fare...or just dallying. Which left us in the hands of stylized hacks, who spewed out the following:

"Armageddon"
"The Rock"
"Independence Day"
"Con Air"
"Cliffhanger"
"Godzilla"
"The Mummy"

Honestly, I get chills just thinking about them.
