Edit: WOOPS! That article had book spoilers. Carry on.

I'm interested in how they deal with an It in the modern day. How can he exist in a social media world? He would have to be captured on film eventually.

I think it would be fun to tackle genre films of each decade.

I saw the top five movies in the theater as a kid, but there is one 1995 disappointment that was the go-to movie for all of my friends and me:
Power Rangers was EVERYTHING to us. It's all we talked about, we had every action figure, and watched the show religiously. We all loved this movie at the time. Now, I can look back and see how fucking terrible it is, but it sure made me happy as an eight year old.
Despite it being the #1 kids show on television, it only made $38 million at the box office.

Dunkirk is hitting older audiences who don't rush out to see a movie. My parents and a group of their friends (all in their 70s) are going to see it after church this afternoon.

I don't get the opinion of Apes being slow. I was enthralled from start to finish.

No it was 1998. It did open at #2 at the box office at 12m though, which was very good for a limited re-release at the time though.
Oh, duh. The movie came out in 1978.
The soundtrack had a huuuuge resurgence that year. It sold 4 million copies in 1998.

Yeah, was surprised to learn that. Chase was in a number of successful comedies back in the day, like a lot of comedians his career burned out by the 1990's especially with a series mediocre / poorly received films, and because he was so difficult to work with. By 1994 he was still on producers want-list went it came to comedies though.
Another one that came to mind just as I was rereading your 1994 post was John Travolta. 3 of his films from 1996 (Phenomena, Michael, & Broken Arrow), wound up in the top twenty of the yearly box office in 1996. Wow, he really did have a comeback at the time.
Wasn't the Grease Anniversary also released in '96? It was huge for a re-release.

1994 really was a beast of a year.

And to people like @Chaz, who I know are huge animation fans, sorry but I'm not so that's why it may seem that TLK write up isn't very informative. I don't have a lot of personal energy invested in it.
It's all good. We already know the stuff about The Lion King. You give us stuff that we otherwise wouldn't research on our own.

Zemeckis definitely peaked in '94. His directorial output in the years since has been way more misses than hits - What Lies Beneath, Cast Away and The Polar Express being the only shimmering lights in his filmography post Forrest Gump.

In another "Hollywood shocker," Disney never thought that The Lion King would be the monster that it became. They expected 1995's Pocahontas to be the prestige pic that would finally win them the Best Picture Oscar. Jeffery Katzenberg is even on record in 1993 as saying that The Lion King will be a fine movie, but it wouldn't be anything compared to Pocahontas.
Ridiculous today, but hindsight is 20/20. The Lion King has sold more tickets than any animated movie of the last 50 years. It was the best-selling VHS of all-time, the third best-selling DVD of all-time, and in the top 10 best-selling Blu-rays of all time. A new Blu-ray edition releases on August 29.

Someone said WB was planning on doing something with classic films like Wizard of Oz and Chocolate Factory.
Like remakes of their classic films.
They could do animated versions of them!
They have released Tom and Jerry DTV movies for both of those properties.

Showgirls would be an interesting one to cover given it bombed at the box office but was a hit on home video
It's a LEGENDARY LGBT cult film too. Try to find a drag show that doesn't quote it. TRY.

Oh shit, I forgot that What's Love...? was in '93. A fantastic movie that is still relevant today.
I imported the Australian bluray around Christmas last year since it appears that Disney has stopped releasing their Touchstone films stateside.

Jason Momoa really worked his way up from Stargate Atlantis to Game of Thrones to Aquaman and JL.
He has a Gal Gadot/Tom Holland breakout coming
I wish he would break my legs while my toes curl behind his ears.
