Ladies of the 90s Tournament – Round 1: Alicia Silverstone (3) vs. Neve Campbell (6)

Previous results: Whedonites, Members of the Buffyverse, SMGeeks...whatever you want to call them, they got wind of this here tournament, and in doing so, sent home one of the early favorites to win it all (despite this being a movie-related tourney, kids!), as Sarah Michelle Gellar destroyed Winona Ryder, 91-29. On the bright side, the tourney got its matchup high in votes... Click here to view the updated full bracket.

Alicia Silverstone


Comments: Neither one of today's Ladies had all that big of a film career in the 90s (or, well, beyond), but each was in our collective consciousness for pretty much the duration. Silverstone gained fame thanks largely to three mid-90s Aerosmith videos - namely, "Cryin'," "Crazy," and "Amazing," all of which she played the lead in. That combined with her earlier turn in the Fatal Attraction-lite The Crush nabbed her the lead role in Amy Heckerling's Clueless, a surprise hit at the time that launched her to stardom...which she never capitalized on.
90s Highlights: The Crush, Clueless, Blast From the Past

Neve Campbell


Comments: Meanwhile, Campbell has comparatively has a much more successful film career, but has never fully been able to escape two roles: first, her starring role as Julia Salinger on TV's Party of Five, and second, as Sydney Prescott in the Scream series - a well she's returning to in the fourth installment, due next week.
