Now that we are well over 20 years removed from it, the 90's seems more and more like the greatest decade for movies. Certainly arguments could be made for other decades, and I could see a 10-9 round going either way against the 70's. But looking at the filmmakers that either reached their peak or cut their teeth at this point in time, it was one hell of a decade.
