'Let's set 'Emma' in a modern high school!' Does this sound the obvious kind of movie gimmick that everyone uses nowadays? Perhaps, but it's an inspired idea all the same.

Jane Austen's characters, and her readers, and the society in which her novels are set, like Jane Austen herself, are HEAVILY conscious of class and social standing. No atmosphere quite so snobbish exists in the modern world. EXCEPT, that is, in the corridors and courtyards of the right kind of high school. And where else in the modern world would you find so many people who seem to spend all their time calling on one another?

I was reminded of how well Heckerling moulded 'Emma' to fit a modern setting when I saw the idiotic 1998 version of 'Great Expectations', adapted by someone who somehow failed to notice how important all the stuff about class and snobbishness was. It's clear that Heckerling understood her source. She isn't afraid to make changes - even radical changes, if the modern setting requires as much - and no character exists MERELY because they have an analogue in Austen's novel. (The most crucial thing is that the Emma-equivalent be sufficiently charming; and so she is.) The result is a film which is winning and satisfying, whether or not you know anything about the source material.

What a decade, am I right? I realize that everyone is all about '90s nostalgia right now, but there's a reason for that: the '90s were awesome.

There was great music, terrible fashion, and of course, some of the finest films Hollywood has ever produced. It was a hell of a time to be alive, and an even better time to be a kid. Watching helped shape my vocabulary, as I'm sure it did for many of you, and that's due in part to the plethora of great.And while choosing the very best is not easy, I think one way to put it in perspective is to list the defining movie quote for every year in the '90s. When doing so, you can see how much the. Films shifted from the playful, goofy family movies of the '80s to the heavier, bigger budget fare seen in theaters today. But through all the turmoil, there still seemed to be a new line every year that everyone you knew, from your parents to your friends at school, was saying on the regular. And if you can't quite remember what those lines were, don't worry.

I've got 'em all right here. So take a look at this list of the quotes that defined each year of that. 1990 — 'Keep The Change, Ya Filthy Animal' ( Home Alone). The middle of the decade was packed with good quotes, so this was no easy choice.

There was the 'All right, all right, all right' of Dazed and Confused to the 'I didn't kill my wife! I don't care' of The Fugitive to Jurassic Park's holy trinity of 'Hold onto your butts,' 'Clever girl,' and 'Life, uh, finds a way.' But it's The Sandlot 's memorable insult that has stood the test of time better than any of them.1994 — 'Life Is Like A Box Of Chocolates, You Never Know What You're Gonna Get' ( Forrest Gump).

In many ways, 1994 was Jim Carrey's year. Ace Ventura ('Alrighty then!' Plane shift: ixalan vampire.

), The Mask ('Sssssmokin'!' ), and Dumb and Dumber ('So you're telling me there's a chance!'

) all premiered that year, but not even his triple effort, nor the Lion King's 'Hakuna matata,' could top Forrest Gump. The movie could make up a top 10 list of '90s quotes all by itself thanks to the likes of 'Stupid is as stupid does' and 'Run, Forrest, run!' , but the chocolate line remains the movie's most iconic line.1995 — 'To Infinity.

( Toy Story). Here's my dark horse. Now before you send me mean tweets calling me an idiot, know that 1998 was almost completely devoid of movie quotes. The blockbusters like Armageddon and Saving Private Ryan? No big quotes. There's Something About Mary?

Long on memorable scenes, short on memorable quotes. The Big Lebowski? Tons of quotes, but nobody was saying them in '98 as this film's popularity didn't catch on until years later. And remember, Adam Sandler was not yet as controversial he would become in the next decade, so he earned his spot on this list. Plus, if you don't think that everybody was talking about high quality H2O in '98, then you're the devil.1999 — 'I See Dead People' ( The Sixth Sense).
