What are some movies that scream 90's?

In terms of the clothes, music, language, and overall feel, what are the most 90's movies you can think of?

I'm thinking Can't Hardly Wait and Cruel Intentions. Can't Hardly Wait, mostly because of the stereotypes; Cruel Intentions because, even though it was released in the last few months of the 90's, it seemed to encompass so much of the 90's - the biggest stars, the incredibly popular soundtrack, and the pursuit of power and social status that became so prevalent at that time.

What are some of yours?

Live action kids/family movies:

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie
First Kid
Richie Rich
Camp Nowhere
Bye Bye Love
Harriet the Spy
Good Burger
Rookie of the Year
The Mighty Ducks(1-3)
Space Jam
Small Soldiers
Jumanji
Kids for Character

Others:

Men in Black
Dumb & Dumber
Scream
I Know What You Did Last Summer
American Pie
You've Got Mail

A lot of my choices have to do with the outdoor and indoor activities more than anything, especially the kids/family movies listings. People were living in a whole different world back then, compared to now.

The Faculty (1998) comes to mind. The minute you see Josh Hartnett's hair, you know you're in for a nostalgic blast.

Good list Harajuku

I agree with Home Alone, Babysitters Club, and House Party for sure.

I chose one from each year that hopefully hasn't been mentioned, that highlights the 90s best and showcases the different types of movies being produced each year. I think more than anything, the humor is especially fitted to the year, coz a lot of it just turns very bad and weird later on.

1990 – Ghost
1991 – Terminator 2
1993 – Hocus Pocus
1994 – Dumb and Dumber
1995 – Babe
1996 – Romeo+Juliet
1997 – Men In Black
1998 – Rush Hour
1999 – 10 Things I Hate About You
