No. 55 - Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (1986)
I skipped school a few times, but never had this much fun. And where did he get all of that cash?
No. 54 - JFK (1991)
The first time I saw this movie it scared me. Really. (The following clip is NSFW.)
No. 53 - A League of Their Own (1992)
This is probably my favorite performance by Tom Hanks. Not necessarily his best, just my favorite.

Top Grossing Movies of the 80’s and 90’s: The 1990’s By Year

What was the top grossing movie in each year of the 80’s and 90’s? I’m glad you asked. OK, nobody asked, but I thought it would be interesting to take a look back at the last two decades of the 20th Century, when the blockbuster came into its own, and see which flick was tops in each year. We’ll start with the 90’s today and do the 80’s on Thursday.
The 90’s were interesting. You had the juggernaut that was Titanic of course, but also some movies that you might not remember being the highest grossing flick for a particular year. In addition, Tom Hanks starred in three of the top grossing movies. Three!
The numbers listed after each flick represent its domestic gross (thanks to Box Office Mojo).
1999 Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace ( $431,088,301)
1998 Saving Private Ryan ($216,540,909)
1997 Titanic ($600,788,188)
1996 Independence Day ($306,169,268)
1995 Toy Story ($191,796,233)
1994 Forrest Gump ($329,694,499)
1993 Jurassic Park ($357,067,947)
1992 Aladdin ($217,350,219)
1991 Terminator 2: Judgment Day ($204,843,345)
1990 Home Alone ($285,761,243)
