Jurassic Park, Shawshank Redemption and Toy Story 2.

Silence of the Lambs would have been my fourth choice.

Hopkins is fantastic though, one of cinema's greatest ever villains.

But I'll do that for you.

Not a bad set of finalists but some are more campy and ubiquitous than "good" (Scream, Titanic, Aladdin).

Truman Show, Toy Story and Goodfellas would all be in my top ten from the decade, though... along with:

American Beauty
Fargo
The Big Lebowski
Pulp Fiction (HOW did this not qualify?!)
Jackie Brown
Beauty and the Beast (BY FAR the best Disney film of the decade, piss off with your Hamlet remake )
Se7en

Very true.

I actually think the forum has done quite well to get this final line-up.

Besides, Scream, I think all the others have strong arguments to be the best film of their year.

Of the two Spielberg films from 1993, I think Schindler's List is better, but I think Jurassic Park is also a worthy winner of that year.

Well done forum. You judged well.
