- The Lion King, Forrest Gump, Pulp Fiction, The Shawshank Redemption, True Lies and Speed. These are just some of the films from 1994 that make it such an important year for the medium. This was one of the best years for film, a very good year for Disney at the box office and had some important pop culture events such as OJ Simpson's slow car chase and the Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan incident.
Welcome to A Year In Film History, a series where we’re going year by year and take a look at all of the interesting, controversial and sometimes whacky things that happened in the film industry. In this video we'll be focusing on 1994 that had some of the most iconic films ever made, CGI being used in unexpected ways and the creation of Dreamworks.

Don’t forget that Jim Carrey starred in three films that year: The Mask, Ace Ventura and of course Dumb and Dumber
And to think that the Razzies wanted to give him worst actor of the year…..
And all 3 are hilarious classics that many still love today, Ace Ventura is one of my personal favorite comedies ever lol
the best actor!!
I'm surprised you didn't discuss Jim Carrey. 1994 is the year that made Jim Carrey a household name with Ace Ventura, The Mask, and Dumb & Dumber. 1994 was the year he became a superstar instead of just the guy from "In Living Color."
And, personally, I love "Pulp Fiction," but "The Shawshank Redemption" was my pick for Best Picture. "Forrest Gump"? Not so much.
true, and also though i think forest gump was good for the time it was made, i don't think its greatness holds up quite the same as pulp fiction or some other films that year
I fully agree. The Shawshank Redemption should have won best picture. At least now people recognize it as one of the greatest movies of all time.
You really make outstanding content man. Keep it up!
Well done sir. 1994 is arguably the best year in cinema. Glad you shined a light on it.
I'm just like the movies in this video: made in '93, released in '94. But all jokes aside what a year it was for moviegoers. One of the best years of cimema for sure! Forrest Gump was my favorite movie as a kid, then I was amazed by Shawshank but finally as I grew older Pulp Fiction became my favorite. We had the movie on VHS and spent years gazing its cover until my parents finally let me to watch it... Thanks for the excellent video, this is my favorite YT series right now. Can't wait for the next one! Cheers!
🤣🤣 Thanks for the comment, it means it a lot! All three of those films are great and had a similar experience with which one was my favourite haha
FG was also my favorite as a kid when it was on Netflix for 4 years. Then I got the pulp fiction DVD from an actual video store, and I was hooked.
Never clicked so fast. This was such a year
One of the best!
Pulp not winning was the reason I've never watched the Oscars since.
Underrated channel deserves more view keep grinding channel gonna blow fasho
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Wow so much happened that year!! The entertainment landscape was just at its peak
Wow, I'd forgotten how many good ones came out that year. Thanks for another great work here. 🙂
Thank you so much for this video. It was excellent! 1994 was a great year for me. I graduated hight school and started acting in plays. Along with 1939, 1967, 1976, 1999, and 2007, it is regarded as one of the best years for movies. I love the fact that you mentioned STARGATE. STARGATE'S impact is underrated. It brought sci-fi back to respectability and prestige and out of the B-Movie arena.
Oh god, I love these videos, thank you for existing
this topic of video has become my favorite thing to look forward to, this channel deserves so much more love and views
As much as Tarantino is my favorite director (evenn tought Pulp Ficton ain't my favorite movie of his) and Forrest Gump has that heartwelmig feeling (the ultimate Boomer's wet dream) Shawshank Redemption should have been nominated the picture of the year. Truly one of the greats of all time.
Another great video as well. You're slowing becoming one of the best movie youtube channels at the moment
Thank you! Most satisfying and earned movie ending EVER.
I was 10 years old in 1994 so many of these films have been stuck in my subconsciousness since then.
This channel deserves a ton. But i am sure it'll get there.
Thank you!! 😊 we really appreciate it!
I really enjoy watching your videos, but I do feel like you missed something. Interview with a Vampire came out this year and had quite a big pop culture influence. The Lost Boys, Bram Stoker's Dracula, then Interview with a Vampire. These three movies had a big influence on vampires in horror movies and the Goth scene, and Interview is the biggest box office hit of the three.
interview with a vampire is a cult classic
Love the channel dude
Great stuff as usual. Much appreciated
Another great video!
Thank you! ☺️
1994 was a great year for movies! I worked at a Movietheater in London that year, I watch Forrest Gump a lot 😉
"But... But. Is he smart" gets the oscar to Tom Hank.
Personally not a fan of Disney's live-action remakes here, but I will say the '94 jungle book is the best one, IMHO. It stands on its own as an enjoyable action/adventure film with a solid plot that just wasn't a frame-by-frame remake of the original. Thanks for drawing attention to it!
I also enjoy Wolf, which also came out that year.
These videos are great, thanks
Thank you! ☺️
I'll be looking forward to when you get to 1999. That year in theaters was as if a neighboring dimension intruded into ours.
I think most can agree that 1994 was also was the year of action movies. True Lies, Speed, and Clear & Present Danger. What more can anybody ask?
The OJ Simpson car chase on my 10th birthday. This video also made me realize how much my parents took me and my sister to the movies
I turned 14 in 1994. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Great video
Interview with the vampire, you will always be famous to me.
I think if Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump and Shawshank Redemption came all out in different years, they all would've scooped up best picture awards. And i would also make the suggestion that The Lion King could've also be easily the second animated to be nominated for best pic. 1994 is still my favorite movie year of all time, which is quite the achievement because it was also the year my most hated movie of all time came out, with the neverending story 3. :P
Please do 1962: To Kill a Mockingbird, Lawrence Of Arabia, Moutiny On the Bounty....
cant wait for 1999, youre gonna have a field day
Looking forward to it! 😅
I was 7 years old in 1994 and the Lion King beokw my heart. Taht was the first time I cry watching a movie.
Great job here. When you get into the 2020s you’re gonna have a hard time.
I know you re americans, but 94 was the football world cup in the USA. Pretty epic tournement if I may say so. Maradonna was kicked out because of Coke. Small Bulgaria kicked out Germany and Roberto Baggio was the tragic figure in the final.
Haha we’re Canadians and huge fans of soccer / football! Included a clip of the 94 World Cup opening ceremony miss. Must have been an iconic World Cup to follow!
@@FilmStack sry for calling you Americans :) yeah it was an iconic one. The first one I followed
Finally, anther person that calls 2019's Lion King is. A life-like CGI animated film, it's not a live-action film.
1994 and 1998 were the best years of movie history
My favourite movie of 1994 hands down was Dumb and Dumber. Loved it even more as the years went on with some memorable jokes especially in the dialogue.
-Cop: "Pull over!"
-Harry: "No, it's a cardigan, but thanks for noticing."
-Lloyd: "Yeah, killer boots man."
-Harry: "I expected the Rocky Mountains to be rockier than this."
-Lloyd: "I was thinking the same thing. That John Denver is full of s*** man"...(Followed by one of the funniest realisation scenes in cinema history in my opinion)
nobody asked
@@stellviahohenheim the video creator did, so...
Thanks for the comment! What a comedy Dumb and Dumber is, so many iconic scenes. The most annoying sound scene always gets me 🤣
what was your criteria for compiling the films in your year lists. is it based on box office, popularity, or north american? i would love to see a streamlined list of the movies that came out during years. but i always get so much filler of every single thing that came out that year.
We try to find the most significant films that came out that year, box office and popularity are a big part of this but more so which films stood the test of time and remain an important part of film history. There are way more films we would’ve wanted to include in the video but at some point we had to draw a line. As for where to see a streamlined list, for older years I find searching in Letterboxd by year is a good way to give you a snapshot of a particular year.
The Magic School Bus. Lol
I think it has to be the best year or one of the best years of the decade
The Awarded Romantic Disney Movie is?
While it was that big at its release, stargate would end up spawning one of the all time greatesz scify franchises ever
What a year
Bro said “pahlmee dior and the kanees film festival.”
I vaguely remember seeing movies in theaters in 1998 and 1999, namely Godzilla, The Mummy, and Star Wars, but I spent 1994 in my mother’s womb before being born in January of 95.
The Lion King is my favorite
You forgot Leon:The professional
1994 in my opinion is the second best year for movies, the first being 1999
Agreed :) Can't beat the Fightclub, the Matrix, Usual Suspects, Memento, Magnolia, American Beauty, Being John Malkovich, the Green Mile, the Sixth Sense... Just to name a few :)
Tom Hanks was pretty awesome that year, but OJ killed it
dark :D
The Lion King was the first film I saw in the cinema.
Home Improvement was on ABC, not NBC
Pulp Fiction? What? Nah, people are arguing for Shawshank Redemption to win over Forrest Gump, not Pulp Fiction. At least, that is usually the discussion I hear. That being said, I still think Forrest Gump is the deserving winner. Also, the 1994's Jungle Book is NOT a Disney Adaptation. It has nothing to do with the Disney version, it's an adaptation of the book.
when are you doing 1995 bro its been 6 months
I love Lion King and Dumb and Dumber!!
Pulp fiction should’ve won best picture, best supporting actor (Samuel Jackson) and best director. 😅. Pulp fiction has so many quotes and scenes that are iconic. Nobody cares much about Forrest Gump other than the special effects in the film. and people quote Samuel Jackson lines in pulp fiction. No one remembers that the old man of Ed wood won 🥴
Too bad the music was pretty boring in 1994. Some iconic albums and hits but an overall dull year when compared to the other years of the 90’s
I much preferred Forrest Gump to Pulp Faction , I don't think using the F word every other sentence is a example of great or witty dialogue
1994 The year I Graduated High School, I'll NEVER Forgive The NEWS for Spoiling Mufasa's Death scene in 1994 when The Lion King was still in Theaters, Just Shut up about that, It's a DISNEY Film, and there's USUALLY at least 1 Dead Parent in a Disney Film. And Mufasa's Death Scene for me was Meh, Sure it's a sad scene, but I knew it was Coming. The Lion King was Hamlet with Lions. Yeah I never saw Forrest Gump, or Pulp Fiction, give the award to The Shadow. The right touch of Grit, with a Batman Type Character. Yeah I found out about the deaths of Mufasa and John Candy at The same time. What? I said that I wasn't gonna forgive the News for Spoiling Mufasa's Death Scene, It should've been more than Meh, but because it was Spoiled, I was cheated out of My tears. It's why I will NEVER watch Old Yeller, I know the Dog Dies. You Didn't Mention The Santa Clause. Scott Calvin: So we go down this road and we hit I 94. Interstate 94 Referencing The Year The Film came out.
It's pronounced Cannes.
Come on how dare you not mention any of the jim carrey classics
Film bro me- Pulp Fiction is the best film of 1994
Non film bro me- Dumb and Dumber is the best film of 1994.
Forest gump might be the most overrated film of all time imo
