Not that I recall, and I was 22 then, so I probably would have.

I remember a woman with the three boobs freaked me out. Sharon Stone was still hot then.

It was the year of Vanilla Ice's "Ice Ice Baby" and MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This," and in the theaters, Home Alone was the top-grossing film of the year.

The George HW Bush era was a cultural low point in the United States, after some great music and films produced in the Reagan-era.

You’ll love this but it is not fiction.

I remember that movie in great detail!

I still think it wasn't produced however.

Most people killed in a single movie or something like that.

Great movie. Interesting bits from wiki:

A script was written for a sequel, which after modification became Minority Report.

The movie was novelized by Piers Anthony, which I also did not know.

This is one movie I will always remember. We saw it between second and third phase of boot-camp on Paris Island. Can still remember the drill instructors stopping the movie half way through just to mess with us. Those were the days.

How could you disagree that scenes like this aren’t a classic:

This one line:

failing to regain his mojo with Starship Troopers (which, while awesome, hardly scored at the box office)

... makes the whole article suspect.

Blue skies on Mars.

Yes it still is one of Arnold's best movies.

Yeah, there was. Arnold capped his wife in the forehead. A lot of feminist groups threw a fit about that. There were also some complaints about the grossness of the movie. The scenes when he pulled the bulb out of his nose and when the faces and eyeballs started popping out in the Martian atmosphere cause the most complaints, IIRC. The guy was wrong about that movie being Arnold's swan song. The next year he did Terminator 2.
