the bricks certain people on this board would shite over IceBox if this was released today
Ice Box had a character arc. She was a masculine girl because her mom was a bitch and up and left her very decent dad. She has an identity crisis and tries to figure out who she is and where she fits in, and ultimately lands as that it's OK to be a tomboy, but still very much a girl.
Now? Her mom was empowered, her dad is a sniveling, weak man who is the dumbest character in the movie and Ice Box demands everyone use he/ him. There's likely a subplot where she takes hormones.
The issue people have with these kinds of characters nowadays is just how flimsy they are as actual people, and only exist to prove a political point.

I agree. I was 9 years old when Jurassic Park hit theaters. Still consider it the top theater experience of my life. Definitely #1 for me. TMNT would be #2 from the OP list

I think I enjoyed D2 more than Mighty Ducks.

No 3 Ninjas, list is shite.

Toy Story far too high
Posted on 4/28/24 at 12:19 pm to RollTide1987
Top movie for me in 1992 (falls outside of the criteria)...

Agreed - I know my wife and her friends would probably say Hocus Pocus is a reasonable pick but none of these others would have any following whatsoever among my peer group

Three movies missing that I surely thought would be on there:
3 Ninjas
Rookie of the Year
Honey, I Shrunk the Kids

It's kind of funny both my entire group of friends from NOLA and all the people I've met around my age (43) in Florida amongst our kids friends group don't really like Hocus Pocus. It seems like it's much bigger amongst people like 10 years younger than us who would've basically been infants when it came out.
I’m 44 and never gave a shite about Hocus Pocus.

I guess I’m technically more of an 80s kid (born in ‘79), so a good bit of those movies are a no for me. Hocus Pocus Casper Goofy Movie Parent Trap Matilda None of those would make the post for me. And Space Jam is decent, but I was a little old for it I think. But I get why it’s on the list
Exactly what I was thinking. I was born in 1980 and have no affection for those movies you listed.
Jurassic Park is of course a huge movie but seems out of place on this list of kid movies. Everybody loved Jurassic Park, not just teens. Might as well also have T2 and Independence Day and Braveheart.

Hell yeah! This hit theaters a couple of months before I turned 9. I remember watching it there.
Movie was legit, and like others have echoed, dark. And IMO it's too low on the list.

Suburban Commando, Angels in the Outfield and Rookie of the Year needs to be in there somewhere

Somehow like 4 years ago it was just agreed by a certain segment of the population it was a classic, and nobody can explain it.
lol what? Wha'ts to explain? There's no need to try ot make a super complicated situation where one doesn't exist. St. Augustine pretty much hit on it up above but it's very speicifc to a particular age range apparently. I was born in 85 so the 90s encompassed ages 5-15 for me, so I'm right in the wheelhouse of this topic. Hocus Pocus came out when I was 7 which is right in the sweet spot; I was old enough to not be actually be scared by it but was still young enough to enjoy the zany funny hijinks that took palce with a small dose of scariness mixed in. Everyone my age within a few years loved it, and by extension our poarents loved it too because we'd all watch together as families. Fast forward 30 years and now you have a bunchof people in their mid-late 30s that like it because we grew up with it. There's not some big secret mystery on what it's so well liked.
A "classic"? I mean, I don't know who is saying that. You coudl argue it's a classic in the genre of "family friendly/kid acceptable halloween movies" I suppose.

I was born in 83 (so "within a few years" of you) and literally nobody I know did this
Nobody even spoke about it during Halloween, either.
I have literally never heard of one person I know watching this movie with their family, let along regularly. It was just a kids horror movie, like Ernest Scared Stupid (and neither were particularly good).
