    Independence Day
    Pales in comparison but mainly for Randy Quaid getting the anal probe and his revenge

    Trainspotting
    It should probably be Fargo. I cant turn off Fargo or Trainspotting, but Fargo is really the kind of masterwork that should win awards like the best picture Oscar. I impulsively clicked on Trainspotting though.

    Jerry Maguire and Swingers are also good, however Tom Cruise is in one and Swingers would be shite without Vince Vaughn.

    Edit...further support for my vote. I submit the greatest cinematic character in the history of movies...


    Another edit...Holy shit i jist keep laughing at Bagby when u think of this scene. "The wee lassy got glassed. No cunt leaves till we find out which cunt did it!"

    Scream
    Scream is in my top 20 all time. Greatest slasher ever made and 2nd best horror outside of Alien (1979) for me. Single-handedly resurrected the horror genre in the 90s. Probably the greatest horror opening scene too. 10/10

    Trainspotting excellent, never care to watch again.

    I didn't get Fargo.

    Agree. Feel like Cabin in the Woods is an homage to Scream a little.

    I almost didn't include it, but am trying to be as objective as possible.

    The early voting in this year looks like a shot gun blast.

    You're not a Fargo guysm, Grumble? I'm a bit shocked.

    I have strong sentimental attachment to Bottle Rocket, Swingers and Mark Helfrich for 1996. But Fargo is simply one of the GOATs. It's like Jaws or Godfather for me. If it's on I watch it, no matter what.
    Watched it on VHS back in the day, didn't live up to the hype. That was a long tim ago though.

    Personally, I'm hit or miss with Coen Bros.
