Magister Pontifex MaximusThere were two remakes of The Thomas Crown Affair, the official 1999 one and Entrapment in the same year.
The original had an infamous chess scene.

Return to Form, or Forum in this case!!Tombstone and Wyatt Earp
Though only one was a really good movie.
Black Swan and The Human Centipede
they both made me say "WTF??"
"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won't last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you'll be able to project it on a 20' by 40' screen with perfect quality. I think it's the director's prerogative, not the studio's to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

There were a couple of chess movies at the same time.
I'm betting one is "Searching For Bobby Fischer", but what is the other one?
Knight Moves?

I love chess, mysteries, and Christopher Lambert... but trust me, "Knight Moves" are moves you don't want to make.

This was the movie that my father taught me the #1 lesson of mediocre thrillers.
10 minutes in he took out a pen, wrote down who the killer was, and laid the note face down on the coffee table. At the end he was right!
Do you want to know the killer? Look for the character who doesn't have a good reason for being in the first few scenes.

1989 saw "The Abyss" "Leviathan" and "Deep Star Six" all come out. Scary submarine movies, all inspired by the late 80s mania about finding the wreck of Titanic.
What other matched sets of movies came out at the same time?

The Conspirator / The Lincoln Lawyer
Possibly two totally different kinds of movies (I've only seen the first) but quite confusing as they were both out at the same time. Seriously, didn't the marketers of the Lincoln Lawyer consider this confusion? Couldn't it have been The Mitsubishi Lawyer or something?
This is not a lightsaber. Nor a euphemism.

Yeah, Penguino, I don't think Asylum's copycat films should count. They do that for everything, on purpose.

Hand Of JudgmentThere was a sort of Australia love in the late 80s. Crocodile Dundee and Quigley Down Under came out pretty close together. Also, my wife worked at The Limited (clothing store) on Madison Avenue back then and they had a line called Outback Red. There may have been other Australia-based films back then too.
This sort of second wave of Australia love we're going through currently reminds me of the late 80s.

Missing and Open Range both came out in 2003. I think they were both kinda "Western revivals" at the time, but other than that, they have little in common.
Open Range is the typical gritty-antiheroes-shooting-the-baddies-invading-the-village, while Missing is about a mystical Shaman who's abducted Cate Blanchett's daughter.
