The ’90s offered a fantastic range of movies, from critically acclaimed dramas to fun films for the whole family. While not every movie was a masterpiece, certain films truly shone. They weren’t just well-written or visually stunning; they took risks and made bold choices that deeply resonated with audiences, earning them a lasting legacy that continues today.
You know, when Popeye came out in 1980, everyone seemed to hate it. Critics really weren’t kind! But honestly, over the years, I’ve noticed more people starting to appreciate it. Just recently, The Hollywood Reporter did a fantastic deep dive into the movie’s story, and they actually called it a hidden gem – even pointing out that filmmakers like Paul Thomas Anderson are fans. It’s cool to see a film’s reputation change like that.
Steffon and Raymun Fossoway are the most memorable members of their family. In the fourth episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Steffon initially pledges his loyalty to Dunk, but then shockingly switches sides to support Prince Aerion.

While films like The Shining are famous and widely enjoyed, many equally scary movies have been lost to time. It’s a shame that so few of these forgotten horror films are remembered.

Beyond everything else, the memorable and often-quoted lines from throughout the entire Star Wars saga are a huge part of its lasting appeal.
