Pulp Fiction has topped a new magazine poll to find the best film of the past 25 years.
The Quentin Tarantino cult favourite beat the Lord of The Rings trilogy and Titanic to land at the top of Entertainment Weekly's New Classics list.
The publication claims the 1994 film "opened a new universe of mainstream storytelling".
Also on the movie list is Toy Story, Saving Private Ryan, Blue Velvet and Hannah & Her Sisters.
Meanwhile, The Silence of The Lambs was named the best movie poster, The A-Team nabbed the best TV theme song and The Simpsons beat The Sopranos and Seinfeld to land the best TV show on the small screen New Classics list.
In music, Prince's Purple Rain was named the top album, ahead of Lauryn Hill's The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill and Achtung Baby by U2.
And J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire came in second on the New Classics books list, behind Cormac McCarthy's The Road.
Finally, Madonna's wedding dress-clad appearance at the 1984 MTV Video Music Awards beat the opening credits of TV show Sex & The City for the top Pop Culture Moment that Rocked Fashion, and Angels In America was named the top stage show of the past 25 years.
