What was the most 90s movie in the 90s?

[Norgy]

Reality Bites was quintessentially 90s.

Pulp Fiction was, well, pulp fiction and not very representative of the 90s. Decent soundtrack though. But no songs from the actual 90s. That's a rather clear indication it was a throwback to a different era, yes?

I thought it was American Beauty. A story about people without any problems creating problems so they can feel alive. Rather like how OJ Simpson and Presidential blow jobs were points of passionate outrage back in those days.

Well the story took place in the 70s.

I though Clerks was music-free.

Girls Against Boys, Soul Asylum, Bad Religion, Corrosion of Conformity, Jesus Lizard, Bash & Pop.  Pretty damn 90sish.

American Beauty is a 90s movie???

I voted Pulp Fiction since IMO it was the most influential on 90s pop culture.  But I guess I should have voted Reality Bites to answer the actual poll question

In my mind quintessentially so. But I have never had this discussion with anybody, just my experience of watching the films.

Yeah out of the group I voted Reality Bites.

I just thought it was much more recent than that.

Pulp Fiction was, well, pulp fiction and not very representative of the 90s.

There were a lot of Indie crime films in the 90s which drew inspiration from Pulp Fiction.  Some were very good, like "Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" or "Go"; others were like "The Boondock Saints."  Plus there were the two films that preceded it, "True Romance" and "Reservoir Dogs."

Speaking just for myself, my 90s is The Crow.

It's from 1999.

I want to change my vote to a write-in:  Swingers. 

Shame on you Sav for leaving it off. 

[derspiess]

Swingers is probably my favorite 90s movie.  Not sure I'd call it the "most 90s" movie, though.

[Zanza]

Voted Clerks.

I think it's telling that none of these movies has a memorable sound track.

Pulp Fiction was already named, but The Matrix also had a really good sound track.
