The
year
2023
was
a
huge
one
when
it
came
to
movies
and
the
box-office.
As
fans,
we
saw
not
one
but
two
movies,

Barbie and The
Super
Mario
Bros.
Movie,
both
gross
over
1
billion
dollars.
In
addition
to
those
two,
there
was
a
bevvy
of
films
that
captivated
audiences
worldwide. Oppenheimer
(which
was
released
on
the
same
day
as Barbie)
was
a
smash
that
left
people
in
complete
awe.
We
were
blessed
to
see
new
installments
added
to
franchises
that
we
have
grown
to
love
with
the
releases
of Guardians
of
the
Galaxy
Vol.
3,
Fast
X,
Spider-Man:
Across
the
Spider-Verse
and
Mission:
Impossible
–
Dead
Reckoning
Part
One.
Wonka,

The
Little
Mermaid and
even The
Color
Purple gave
us
a
blast
from
the
past
as
remakes
of
classic
films.
Down
the
line,
when
we
look
back
at
the
year,
it
will
definitely
stand
out
as
a
great
one.

Another
year
that
we
can
say
the
same
thing
about
is
1999.
There
is
a
host
of
bonafide
classics
that
made
their
way
onto
our
screens.
The
fourth
film
of
the
groundbreaking

Star
Wars
series
was
released
and
blew
every
other
film
out
of
the
water
numbers
wise.
Two
of
the
world’s
favorite
animated
characters,
Woody
and
Buzz
Lightyear,
got
a
sequel.
Thanks
to
Laurence
Fishburne,
Keanu
Reeves,
Brad
Pitt
and
Edward
Norton,
action
movies
were
in
high
demand.
Funny
men
like
Martin
Lawrence,
Eddie
Murphy,
Jim
Carrey,
Rob
Schneider,
Michael
Myers
and
Adam
Sandler
continued
to
solidify
themselves
as
household
names
with
films
that
still
make
us
cry
of
laughter
to
this
day.
Fantasy
films
and
psychological
thrillers
left
their
mark
also
as

The
Green
Mile and The
Sixth
Sense showed
there
is
always
a
new
boundary
you
can
push
in
the
film
world.
No
matter
what
your
cup
of
tea
is,
in
1999
there
was
something
for
you.
To
celebrate
these
films’
legacies,
we
put
together
a
gallery
of
films
that
are
turning
25
this
year.
Let
us
know
your
favorites
and
if
we
missed
any
in
the
coments!
