Picks of 1993

Cinema Sewer's Robin Bougie claimed that 1993 was "the year it all went to shit" - claiming it signified a downward trend for many notable directors. Personally, I consider it a vintage year for cinema as it delivered some serious heat:

Bad Boy Bubby (Rolf de Heer)

Carlito's Way (Brian De Palma) 

City Hunter (Jing Wong)

Cronos (Guillermo del Toro)

Dark Waters (Mariano Baino)

Falling Down (Joel Schumacher)

The Fugitive (Andrew Davis)

Ground Hog Day (Harold Ramis)

Hard Target (John Woo)

In the Line of Fire (Wolfgang Petersen)

Iron Monkey (Yuen Woo Ping)

Menace II Society (The Hughes Brothers)

Return of the Living Dead III (Brian Yuzna)

Schindler's List (Steven Spielberg) 

Skinner (Ivan Nagy)

So I Married an Axe Murderer (Thomas Schlamme)

Tombstone (George P. Cosmatos & Kevin Jarre)

True Romance (Tony Scott)

The Untold Story (Herman Yau)

Films I liked from 1993, but not revisited in ages:

Alive; Batman: Mask of the Phantasm; Body Bags; Body Snatchers; A Bronx Tale; Cliffhanger; Coneheads; The Dark Half; Demolition Man; Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story; Hot Shots! Part Deux; In the Name of the Father; Judgement Night; Last Action Hero; Needful Things; The Nightmare Before Christmas; Red Rock West; Ticks; and Trauma.

Films from 1993 I shamelessly haven't seen: 

Boxing Helena; CB4; The Joshua Tree; Matinee: Robin Hoood: Men in Tights; A Perfect World; Sonatine; and Who's the Man?

Unpopular opinion: 

Phil Tippett described himself as extinct thanks to computer aided visual effects being employed on such a grand scale in Spielberg's dinosaur themed blockbuster, Jurassic Park. Neither cared much for the film nor its CGI wizardry back then - and still prefer stop motion animation and practical effects over it to this day.
