Seminal day in the life of angsty teenage store workers. Great back story, and a hidden gem of the mid-90s. If you're not celebrating Rex Manning day every year, you're missing out. (Don't watch the re-mix versions, vanilla all the way)

Snakes on a Plane - brought to you by Red Bull.
This film would have been nowhere near as enjoyable if it wasn't for Samuel L. Jackson. It's pretty bad, but I still kind of love it. Despite it's very obvious mid 00s crappy CGI, it has a kind of 90s action vibe to it. I also have an undying crush on Julianna Margulies so that also helps.
It's a whole load of faffy nonsense - B-Movie perfection, chefs kiss.

Mid 90s family friendly Christmas action comedy with Arnie Schwarzenegger as a workaholic dad who keeps breaking promises to his kid (a young Jake Lloyd. Yes, that Jake Lloyd who would later play kid Anakin Skywalker, who grows up to become Darth Vader) and ends up hunting all over town on Christmas Eve for this seasons must-have Christmas present: a turbo-man action doll.
Amusing enough, but not one of Arnie's better kid-friendly offerings IMO.

Mid-90s TV Sean Bean starring TV movie, loosely based on the Bernard Cornwell novel of the same name.
I say loosely based, but as not as loosely as the previous (Sharpe's Gold): here, the rough outline is pretty much the same as in the novel - sure, there are liberties taken and subplots left out and/or changed, but this *is* recognizably the same story, complete with Brigadier Guy Loup, the spanish Real Compania Irelande (sp?) et al
