>>212007930 Right and those are 4 movies. We need 50. 1982 though easily has a very strong top 50. I'd be interested in a top 100 though. I bet after 80 is gonna be a struggle.
1982 is a very special year because you get Cafe Flesh. And not only that but you also get Liquid Sky. Isn't that crazy? In addition to everything else you get Cafe Flesh and Liquid Sky. What a crazy fucking year. Still gonna hit a brick fuckin wall at 80 though. Maybe 70.
>>212009667 1994 is surprisingly weak and I bet 1999 is stronger but 1994 still gets Tit and the Moon. It literally breaks board rules for me to say why it's so good.
>>212007638 (OP) Best modern years are as follows 77 82 94 99 07 13
Of those, 07 and 99 are considered the best for "le real" cinema, and of those two 99 has the best overall films, the best best films and also huge blockbusters.
>>212009868 1994 gets attention because of the films it put forward for the 95 Oscars. Pretty much the best Oscar batch (77 is close). 82 was a massive blockbuster year for Gen X fags. 99 just has the largest variety of kino. 07 and 13 get mentioned because everything after 99 has been weak, but they had strong entries. But they don't come close to 77 for instance.
>>212010602 1977 is shockingly atrocious. 20 films would be a challenge. If you named 20 films I guarantee you one of those under scrutiny would he mediocre as shit. And we need 50-100 solidly good films. The 70s are officially the most overrated decade in history. It's not reality. Just someone else's sentimentality.
>>212011970 I don't get it. What's the big deal? Is The Last Emperor really that good? I've never seen it. I'd agree that's a great year but not necessarily because of the Oscar picks.
>>212010426 I'm starting to think people were blowing smoke up each others asses over kubrick, some of his movies are great, some are bad. Even the good ones have some whack shit in them.
>>212014113 lmao this dood thinks people still have imdb accounts. i dont even catalogue and rate films on an online profile, but even I know people use letterboxd
>>212014113 E.T. was actually the very first movie I saw in the theater. Right across the street from where Spielberg held all of his test screenings through 1942.
>>212014305 Well that person accused me of not having seen it. I saw it in the theater in the mall where part of True Stories with David Byrne was filmed.
>>212014280 I dont really know what point you're trying to make? that I or OP has forgotten popular movies we've likely seen? Im not even OP, but he started the thread by saying "top 50". His premise for the thread, then the top 10 being iconic movies he likely knows by name and off-hand, doesnt really lead to the insult you're trying to make. Not trying to be mean but are you ESL? That would explain a lot here.
