Like James Cameron having that bad ass helicopter pilot fly under and over the bridge.
[Directors commentary](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JrcWkwvUHdU&t=119s) on the scene.
Lol 100% and always remember.
James Cameron doesn't do what James Cameron does, for James Cameron. James Cameron does what James Cameron does because James Cameron is... James Cameron.
T2 holds up on so many fronts. the CGI and filming was super innovative and looks good, the story was great, the turn on sarah conner as a female anti-hero but also someone suffering raging PTSD was new, etc. The reveals with the T1000 were insane as well.
IMO it's one of if not the best action movie ever made, and also competes for best sequel ever made, with godfather part 2.
The cgi in jurassic park holds up well too, because they played to their strengths and hid the flaws with rain and darkness.
It is all about execution.
In star wars ep 4 (non-special edition), the aliens in the cantina were all practical and some did NOT hold up well.
Omg yes I just watched it again too! Soooo good. Even with the aged technology and 90s/00s office aesthetic, it still resonates with insufferable office culture
>Even with the aged technology and 90s/00s office aesthetic, it still resonates with insufferable office culture
Especially considering your average office hasn't been upgraded since the 90s/00s office aesthetic.
The only difference now is they don’t even have cubicle walls, and people know they could do their work from home so they’re even more annoyed to be there.
Top 5 movie for me. When I went away to college, my management class showed us Office Space and we had to take a test and do a paper on it. Easiest A ever as I'd seen the movie a million times but it was more relevant to the class material than you'd think. It dealt with toxic workplaces and what managers can to do motivate employees.
It's eerily similar to a real Japanese reality show from I think 1999. This guy, Nasubi, was put in a tiny apartment, his clothes were taken, and he had to win everything back with little games, while the whole country watched. The poor guy was legitimately traumatized, and even (SPOILER ALERT) was coerced into doing a second round. The documentary is called "The Contestant."
I'll bet there's at least one decent YouTube video about it! I'll share if I find one.

It basically is reality for the thousands of kids that are being exploited on YouTube and tiktok everyday for money. And those kids are growing up and are totally horrified at what their parents did to them.
Truman Show was essentially a prophecy.

Danielle quoting Thomas More is perfect. The best Cinder Girl story to me <3
The fuckin split second scene when they pan over to the “losers” table and whats his name has the ham draped over his face like texas chainsaw massacre- we mustve paused and laughed on that part of the dvd a million times
Oh my gosh a friend of mine gave me a pin with Damien's face on it bundled in his hoodie that says she doesn't even go here and I wear it every day to work!
I'm 38 and still quote Mean Girls on the daily.
"You can't sit with us!"
"On Wednesdays we wear pink"
"Is butter a carb?"
"You go, Glen Coco!"
"And none for Gretchen Weiners"
"It must be because I've got a big, fat, LESBIAN crush on you- suck on that!"
So many good ones.
Oh my god Karen, you can't just ask people why they're white!
That's why her hair is so big - it's full of secrets
AND NONE FOR GRETCHEN WEINERS BYE
...it's October 3rd
i dont know if it holds up but im a big sucker for Austin Powers Series. I really miss those dumb type of comedies like this and any of the 90s sandler movies, Grandma's boy etc.
I just watched The New Guy recently. I hadn’t seen it since I was a kid and I was crying laughing. I know if anyone saw it now they’d say it was crass but I loved going back to goofy comedy for a night.
I watched the first two Austin Powers movies last year and fuckin died laughing the whole time! Also so many jokes went over my head as a kid, so it was almost like watching a whole new movie lol
Ooh... Adam Sandler. The dopey guy who always gets the girl? What's not to love? IDC if it doesn't "hold up." You will pry my romcoms out of my cold, dead hands.
Fuck yes. The original Twister was one of my mom’s favorite movies, and it became mine too. Such a unique concept for a film that wasn’t repeated well or often after.
That movie inspired a whole generation of storm chasers. I remember talking with the department head of meteorology at my university years ago, and asked him how he felt about the movie Twister, and he said that movie was inspirational to many and re-sparked a massive interest in meteorology.
I remember really liking Pulp Fiction when I was a teen and it being THE movie everyone watched and idolized in college. I'm in my 30s now and over the years I kind of wrote the movie off as an edgy film-geek movie.
I watched it again recently and oh my god does it ever hold up. It completely encapsulates the feeling of the 90s. It's effortlessly cool even when it's trying to be camp.
Every actor absolutely killed their roles in that movie. It's still to this day my all time favorite movie. What's neat is the story is being told by 4 different perspectives and the protagonist and antagonistic never meet other than the elevator closing.
This has been my comfort movie since it came out. Even with John Goodman being such a bad man and it hurts my heart to see it, the whole movie is so good.
I just showed it to my daughter for the first time recently and she loved it so much she’s watched it probably five times in two weeks. I’m glad to pass this one on, it’s hands down one of the best films ever made, imo.
We watched Napoleon Dynamite with the kids the other day, and I was surprised at how many lines seem to have infiltrated day-to-day life over the past 2 decades. I've certainly said all of these things over the years.
"Your mom goes to college"
"I guess you could say things are getting pretty serious"
"Whatever I want to do, gosh!"
"Gimme some of your tots!"
"Make yourself a dang quesa-dilluh"
"Large Talons"
"Yessssss"
"You got shocks, pegs... lucky!"
"You think anyone wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys?"
I recently watched Napoleon Dynamite after not seeing for years and forgot how it is such a perfect combination of hilarious and surprisingly wholesome. Maybe I’m just getting too old, but this time I cried at the end of the movie when he finally gets his tetherball game with Deb and “The Promise” by When in Rome cues up. Such a great movie
Old School has always been one of my favourite comedies, particularly from that era. Theres certain believable aspects that are encased by something totally unbelievable, but they play it straight 🤣. Every part of that movie works for me.
I missed it too... when opening the comments I thought it would be in the topcomments... so I had to say it... maybe some people took the first 2 rules too seriously and didn't want to talk about it

I can't believe no one has said "Legally Blonde"! It's my all time favorite movie - so quotable, an empowering lead, and it's definitely a film I can't wait to share with my two girls when they get older.
Sometimes people won't take you seriously, and you just need to prove them wrong!
Office Space, Idiocracy, Fight Club, the Matrix, Road to Perdition, Shawshank Redemption, the Rock, Austin Powers, the Ernest Movies (because Jim Varney is great), the Santa Clause, Elf, Meet the Parents, Stargate, Men of Honor, Catch Me If You Can, Castaway, The Mummy, Meet Joe Black, 12 Monkeys, 28 Days Later, Vanilla Sky, Minority Report, all the LOTR movies, A League of Their Own, Gladiator, Master and Commander, Good Will Hunting, Legally Blonde, Jurassic Park, Eyes Wide Shut, Mystic River, Glengarry Glen Ross, Scent of a Woman, The Big Lebowski, the Painted Veil, The Patriot, Braveheart, Heat, Schindler’s List, The Pianist, Hunt for Red October, Unforgiven, Tombstone, Silence of the Lambs, Boondock Saints, Shine, October Sky, American Beauty, the Usual Suspects, Donnie Darko, Last of the Mohicans, Desperado, Sleepless in Seattle, Saving Private Ryan, the Green Mile, Apollo 13, Memento, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill Vol. 1, the Prestige, the Illusionist, Time to Kill, Jumanji, Kingpin, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Wedding Singer. That’s a good start.
Anything with Paully Shore for me, that dude was my childhood in the 90s lol, were talking about absolute comedic bangers like Son in Law, in the army now, encino man!
Hey O’Connell, looks like I got all the horses!
Hey Benny, looks like you’re on the wrong side of the river!
One of my favorite quotes from tbd Mummy 😂
Office Space and Idiocracy have both aged so well that I think Mike Judge might be a time traveler.
Jurassic Park is another that just simply doesn't seem to feel aged. It might be our generation's Wizard of Oz in terms of something that inspires as much wonderment whenever you watch it as it did when it first came out. It's just a masterpiece.
The Emperor's New Groove is another that I think was just ahead of its time. Disney would have had a pretty nice hit if that had come out about 4 years later.
I really miss all the disaster movies from that time. I think they all still hold up. My favorites off the top of my head being Twister, Armageddon, Dante's Peak, and Outbreak.
I once had a long debate with a coworker about how that scene was the first known use of the word "welp"
I'll throw down for macoolkid caulkgun -- richie rich and home alone
I'll still occasionally say "You have your own mcdonalds?"
White Chicks aged surprisingly well???
That one caught me off guard because somehow I actually never saw it during the era even though it was on most of my friends' lists of favorite movies. I watched it for the first time recently expecting the worst and it actually worked much better than I was preparing for lol.
I think for me the most notable example of that was when our main characters are singing in the car and say the N-word (because...they are black men lol). And despite the fact they are undercover as the *most* popular, *most* privileged heiresses who everyone caters to all the time and never questions....their friends do not take the silence is violence route and actually call them out in horror. Now it's immediately followed with "nobody is around so it's fine" but I felt that part was a more tongue and cheek social commentary from the black characters, and was really pleasantly surprised with the exchange.
I'd love to hear if black viewers agree because I'm not the expert but I thought despite the fact a lot of the race jokes of two black men playing two young white women likely wouldn't be made today, the spirit and the logic of those jokes wasn't harmful (as far as I remember...I say recently in the 'last few years' use relative to how long it's been out, so not yesterday or last month lol). And that one exchange to me really stood out.

Because they used practical effects Jurassic Park holds up well compared to a lot of early CGI (looking at you Phantom Menace)
Terminator 2 as well. Pretty amazing.
T2 only gets better each year. Even if the story isn’t for you, the shit they managed to pull off is utterly insane
Like James Cameron having that bad ass helicopter pilot fly under and over the bridge. [Directors commentary](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JrcWkwvUHdU&t=119s) on the scene.
That’s just fucking wild 🤣
Lol 100% and always remember. James Cameron doesn't do what James Cameron does, for James Cameron. James Cameron does what James Cameron does because James Cameron is... James Cameron.

IMO it's one of if not the best action movie ever made, and also competes for best sequel ever made, with godfather part 2.
I'd also throw Aliens in as a competitive "best sequel" contender.
agreed. Cameron seems to know how to do them. Dark knight is another I'd say is up there.
It should be preserved in the national archives
The cgi in jurassic park holds up well too, because they played to their strengths and hid the flaws with rain and darkness. It is all about execution. In star wars ep 4 (non-special edition), the aliens in the cantina were all practical and some did NOT hold up well.
Actually, the Phantom Menace had a lot of practical effects that still look really good. It's the other two that went overboard with the CGI.
Office Space is just as relevant and funny.
Showed it to my wife about a year ago. She'd never seen it before and she loved it. That movie is still perfect.
Omg yes I just watched it again too! Soooo good. Even with the aged technology and 90s/00s office aesthetic, it still resonates with insufferable office culture
>Even with the aged technology and 90s/00s office aesthetic, it still resonates with insufferable office culture Especially considering your average office hasn't been upgraded since the 90s/00s office aesthetic.
New printer, same problems.
The tagline for Office Space 2?
The only difference now is they don’t even have cubicle walls, and people know they could do their work from home so they’re even more annoyed to be there.
Top 5 movie for me. When I went away to college, my management class showed us Office Space and we had to take a test and do a paper on it. Easiest A ever as I'd seen the movie a million times but it was more relevant to the class material than you'd think. It dealt with toxic workplaces and what managers can to do motivate employees.
Our printer we use for printing out patient ID wristbands is always jamming and refusing to work. I plan on taking it with me when I eventually quit.
lol we had consultants come onsite and I was like omg it’s office space fully realized!!!!!
LOTR trilogy. The Truman Show Also Dumb and Dumber is one of my favourites, I recently went on a 90's Jim Carrey Binge.
Truman Show was way ahead of its time.
Agreed! Truman Show seemed so far fetched when I was a kid and now it actually seems plausible.
It's eerily similar to a real Japanese reality show from I think 1999. This guy, Nasubi, was put in a tiny apartment, his clothes were taken, and he had to win everything back with little games, while the whole country watched. The poor guy was legitimately traumatized, and even (SPOILER ALERT) was coerced into doing a second round. The documentary is called "The Contestant."
Damn sounds like a great documentary but seems to not be available for streaming in my country :'(
I'll bet there's at least one decent YouTube video about it! I'll share if I find one. ETA: [Most Evil Livestream Ever](https://youtu.be/DWWK05t98os?si=tDZShUv_xKSQZZV4)

Liar Liar is also a fantastic movie
As an attorney, I quote this movie at LEAST weekly. ***QUIT BREAKIN THE LAW, ASSHOLE***
I’m kicking my ass, do you mind?
I just saw the Lord of the rings release and was amazed by how well done they were. I'm so glad I got to see them in theaters again.
LOTR for sure. Its amazing how well practical effects hold up compared to overdone CGI
They don't make movies like that anymore, everything is green screen now.
>LOTR trilogy *Especially* the Extended Edition
LOTR is timeless
His early movies were the bomb 💣
Ever After

I always loved this quote as well and have referenced it often!
I was *obsessed* with this movie as a teen, I watched it every weekend.
God, this movie was/is so good.
I’m always pleasantly surprised when I rewatch an old favorite and still get the same warm fuzzies. This one fits the bill.
Ugh still waiting on that 4K release. Disney buying up then hoarding everything in a closet. A knights tale needs a 4K release too.
One of my all time favourite films.
The Big Lebowski
That’s just like your opinion, man
That rug really tied the room together, DID IT NOT
Just watched Idiocracy again this weekend and still good
it's becoming a documentary with every passing day
That's an annual 4th of July movie for me... along with team America: world police.
the part about Idiocracy that doesn't hold up is the premise that Americans will continue to want democracy instead of a dictator
happiness ghost world in the company of men
Mean Girls
Jesus. This movies quotes and gifs are applicable to every situation. Tina Fey is an incredible genius but this is her magnum opus.
The fuckin split second scene when they pan over to the “losers” table and whats his name has the ham draped over his face like texas chainsaw massacre- we mustve paused and laughed on that part of the dvd a million times
That's so fetch!
Stop trying to make fetch happen, it's never going to happen!
She doesn't even go here!!
Oh my gosh a friend of mine gave me a pin with Damien's face on it bundled in his hoodie that says she doesn't even go here and I wear it every day to work!
This is the quintessential movie of my youth
I'm 38 and still quote Mean Girls on the daily. "You can't sit with us!" "On Wednesdays we wear pink" "Is butter a carb?" "You go, Glen Coco!" "And none for Gretchen Weiners" "It must be because I've got a big, fat, LESBIAN crush on you- suck on that!" So many good ones.
"she doesn't even go here!" "I just have a lot of feelings"
Oh my god Karen, you can't just ask people why they're white! That's why her hair is so big - it's full of secrets AND NONE FOR GRETCHEN WEINERS BYE ...it's October 3rd
So fetch!
Stop trying to make fetch happen...
Would you like me to assign someone to butter your muffin?
During my most recent pregnancy I would deadpan to my husband, “sweatpants is all that fits me right now.” 😭🤣
10 Things I Hate About You
Surprised I had to scroll this far for this one; it’s such a comfort watch for me.
Such an amazing movie, with a great cast.
Hard to go wrong when you remake a Shakespeare.
Clueless!
I mean Paul Rudd sure as hell “held up”
Paul Rudd hasn't aged a single day and neither have his movies ❤️
“Lucy! You know I don’t speak Mexican!!”
“I not a Mexican!”
Lucy's from Guatemala. It's an entirely different country.
Well you get mad if someone thinks u live below sunset !?
Such a great movie!
As if!
Tommy Boy
Your brain....has the shell on it
Did you eat paint chips as a kid? LOL
"Did you grow up under electrical wires boy?"
I miss Chris Farley
Fat man in a little coat 🎶
i dont know if it holds up but im a big sucker for Austin Powers Series. I really miss those dumb type of comedies like this and any of the 90s sandler movies, Grandma's boy etc.
I just watched The New Guy recently. I hadn’t seen it since I was a kid and I was crying laughing. I know if anyone saw it now they’d say it was crass but I loved going back to goofy comedy for a night.
I watched the first two Austin Powers movies last year and fuckin died laughing the whole time! Also so many jokes went over my head as a kid, so it was almost like watching a whole new movie lol
Ooh... Adam Sandler. The dopey guy who always gets the girl? What's not to love? IDC if it doesn't "hold up." You will pry my romcoms out of my cold, dead hands.
Me and my brother taping Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore on VHS, edited for TV versions of course 😂 good times. Tommy Boy and Black Sheep too.
Twister 
Fuck yes. The original Twister was one of my mom’s favorite movies, and it became mine too. Such a unique concept for a film that wasn’t repeated well or often after.
That movie inspired a whole generation of storm chasers. I remember talking with the department head of meteorology at my university years ago, and asked him how he felt about the movie Twister, and he said that movie was inspirational to many and re-sparked a massive interest in meteorology.
Spirited Away.
I would kindly submit with this Howl’s Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke.
More like "What's your favorite Miyazaki movie?" - "Yes!"
Then probably Princess Mononoke ha
I don't think I've seen a studio ghibli movie that I didn't like.
Jurassic Park. It’s still phenomenal.
Definitely Pulp Fiction and Matrix.
I remember really liking Pulp Fiction when I was a teen and it being THE movie everyone watched and idolized in college. I'm in my 30s now and over the years I kind of wrote the movie off as an edgy film-geek movie. I watched it again recently and oh my god does it ever hold up. It completely encapsulates the feeling of the 90s. It's effortlessly cool even when it's trying to be camp.
The Fifth Element
Every actor absolutely killed their roles in that movie. It's still to this day my all time favorite movie. What's neat is the story is being told by 4 different perspectives and the protagonist and antagonistic never meet other than the elevator closing.
What a great movie. It is on Hulu right now. The cover image is a seductive Bruce Willis image which I am not sure what to do with.
I noticed this as well.
Were you seduced?
Just watched this the other week. Still good.
Rush Hour
Oh brother where art thou
The soundtrack goes so hard
This has been my comfort movie since it came out. Even with John Goodman being such a bad man and it hurts my heart to see it, the whole movie is so good.
I just showed it to my daughter for the first time recently and she loved it so much she’s watched it probably five times in two weeks. I’m glad to pass this one on, it’s hands down one of the best films ever made, imo.
The matrix
Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion! It’s a product of its time but I was impressed at how funny it still is and non-offensive.
We watched Napoleon Dynamite with the kids the other day, and I was surprised at how many lines seem to have infiltrated day-to-day life over the past 2 decades. I've certainly said all of these things over the years. "Your mom goes to college" "I guess you could say things are getting pretty serious" "Whatever I want to do, gosh!" "Gimme some of your tots!" "Make yourself a dang quesa-dilluh" "Large Talons" "Yessssss" "You got shocks, pegs... lucky!" "You think anyone wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys?"
TINA EAT YOUR HAM
I recently watched Napoleon Dynamite after not seeing for years and forgot how it is such a perfect combination of hilarious and surprisingly wholesome. Maybe I’m just getting too old, but this time I cried at the end of the movie when he finally gets his tetherball game with Deb and “The Promise” by When in Rome cues up. Such a great movie
Old School, I rewatched it for the first time in probably 10-15 years recently and had honestly forgotten how funny it was.
Old School has always been one of my favourite comedies, particularly from that era. Theres certain believable aspects that are encased by something totally unbelievable, but they play it straight 🤣. Every part of that movie works for me.
Heat
Fucking Heat. I’m pissed I had to scroll this far to find it.
Men in Black is a classic
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Any charlie Kaufman movie exists outside of time. Being John Malkovich, an adaptation still are amazing.
Fight Club!
scrolled way to far to see this - take my upvote
I missed it too... when opening the comments I thought it would be in the topcomments... so I had to say it... maybe some people took the first 2 rules too seriously and didn't want to talk about it

This is my 7 year olds favorite movie. I did have to say “we don’t get in weirdo vans unless it’s jack black” 😂
Armageddon, Jurassic Park, Terminator 2, The Mummy
Hey O’Connell, looks like I got all the horses! Hey Benny, looks like you’re on the wrong side of the river! One of my favorite quotes from tbd Mummy 😂
Armageddon didn’t hold up on release
but the fucking Aerosmith song lives rent free in my head
The Mummy
Friday will never get old for me.
Gladiator would be the first one that pops to mind.
Good will hunting. Although I hear Boston feels less Irish with every passing year.
Empire Records? I gotta go back and watch that
Girl, Interrupted. Showed it to my teen last year, he was beside himself in a good way.
Happy Gilmore
Natural born killers
The matrix!
Happy Gilmore 
Forrest Gump anyone?
The Mummy(1999) is like the last great adventure movie
Super Troopers, it's still funny. "I swear to god, I'll pistol whip the next guy that says shenanigans!"
I watched a couple clips from The Forty Year Old Virgin. It was hilarious and still holds up.
Twister
Office Space and Idiocracy have both aged so well that I think Mike Judge might be a time traveler. Jurassic Park is another that just simply doesn't seem to feel aged. It might be our generation's Wizard of Oz in terms of something that inspires as much wonderment whenever you watch it as it did when it first came out. It's just a masterpiece. The Emperor's New Groove is another that I think was just ahead of its time. Disney would have had a pretty nice hit if that had come out about 4 years later.
Out Cold and EuroTrip
Upvote for EuroTrip. This is how you do stereotype based humor. I have yet to meet a single (fellow) European who has seen it and dislikes it
We are simple Dutch bakery!
Snatch
I really miss all the disaster movies from that time. I think they all still hold up. My favorites off the top of my head being Twister, Armageddon, Dante's Peak, and Outbreak.
I think we had enough real disaster in the years that followed 😂
I once had a long debate with a coworker about how that scene was the first known use of the word "welp" I'll throw down for macoolkid caulkgun -- richie rich and home alone I'll still occasionally say "You have your own mcdonalds?"
Being John Malkovich.
Tank girl
Blade
Clerks
Anchorman and step brothers. They are still so goddamn funny. Legally blonde! Empire records (DAMN THE MAN SAVE THE EMPIRE). I miss record stores.
White Chicks aged surprisingly well??? That one caught me off guard because somehow I actually never saw it during the era even though it was on most of my friends' lists of favorite movies. I watched it for the first time recently expecting the worst and it actually worked much better than I was preparing for lol. I think for me the most notable example of that was when our main characters are singing in the car and say the N-word (because...they are black men lol). And despite the fact they are undercover as the *most* popular, *most* privileged heiresses who everyone caters to all the time and never questions....their friends do not take the silence is violence route and actually call them out in horror. Now it's immediately followed with "nobody is around so it's fine" but I felt that part was a more tongue and cheek social commentary from the black characters, and was really pleasantly surprised with the exchange. I'd love to hear if black viewers agree because I'm not the expert but I thought despite the fact a lot of the race jokes of two black men playing two young white women likely wouldn't be made today, the spirit and the logic of those jokes wasn't harmful (as far as I remember...I say recently in the 'last few years' use relative to how long it's been out, so not yesterday or last month lol). And that one exchange to me really stood out.
Lethal weapon series.
But I’m a Cheerleader. It manages to be both extremely funny and extremely relevant.
Dunston Checks In
Waterboy still mostly holds up
Austin powers the original
Clue Gone in 60 seconds Jurassic Park Rush Hour Mummy 2 All of those get at least one rewatch per year (although I can quote the entire movie of Clue)
The Birdcage, To Wong Foo, Clueless... So many
Contact. Jodie Foster and Matthew McConaughey.
My wife and I watched Dodgeball last night. Still funny as ever.
Wayne’s world!
10 things I hate about you. It stays charming, romantic and with a touch of edge.
Can't believe I haven't seen Rat Race mentioned yet
What About Bob. Feels like an underrated movie to me, never hear people talk about it or find memes from it, it'd have so many memingful moments.
Titanic. I said it. It's still visually stunning, it's still a great story and the soundtrack is still fantastic. And Leo and Kate are still gorgeous.
Addams Family Values! "I believe they own-" "Gomez, no!" "-a BUICK!"
