A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

ANOTHER QUESTION FOR THE AFI: While poking around IMDB, a question comes to mind--in modern times, has there been a better overall year for film in the U.S. than 1998? During that year, the following films saw release in the U.S.--Elizabeth, Shakespeare in Love, Saving Private Ryan, Primary Colors, Life Is Beautiful, The Thin Red Line, Gods and Monsters, A Civil Action, A Simple Plan, Pleasantville, The Truman Show, Out of Sight, There's Something About Mary, You've Got Mail, Enemy of the State, The Wedding Singer, Ever After: A Cinderella Story, Pi, Rushmore, and A Bug's Life. Sure, not everything was great, as it was also the year of Armageddon, Deep Impact, and Patch Adams, but that's a darn fine record.
