    Janeane Garofalo

    All scored on average higher in their 90s movies that I've seen. Murray surprised me, but one truly awful film brought his average way down.

    some easy ones for a change

    Susan Sarandon - 3-4 great roles in the first part of the decade
    Edward Norton - Primal Fear among others
    Tom Hanks - everything he touched in the 90s was gold
    Bill Murray - for Groundhog Day and his participation in Ed Wood

    I just checked my nominations - I actually nominated him.
    5 films he played in the 90s that I liked: Primal Fear, The People vs Larry Flynt, Rounders, American History X and Fight Club.

    I totally agree about American History X, a very good film, albeit not an easy one to watch.

    I think I nominated Edward Furlong, has he already gone out or not up yet?

    I accept that he's considered one of the finest actors of his generation, but personally I find him pretty nondescript. And don't get me started on that Forrest Gump sh*te.

    Fair enough. We'll disagree on this one, Forrest Gump was my favourite film that year and easily in the top-10 of the decade.

    Danny De Vito - tough one but Penguin makes the difference
    Liam Neeson - Oskar Schindler
    John Travolta - a bit meh on this one as I'm not a fan of Pulp Fiction, but Juliette Lewis has starred in a film that I genuinely dislike.
    Johnny Depp - so many great roles in the 90s.
