re: UNSTICKY PLEASE - 100 Movies We Agree Don't Suck: 80's Edition

Lonesome Dove was originally a TV series. It's not a movie. Or are we gonna rank the Thornbirds?

And, I've always had a one movie per director rule for MWADS as a method to be more inclusive. There's just too many good movies to get them all, I'm trying to get a sample. I like my list to have balance. I thought about violating it for the 80s list, particularly for the Coens' Raising Arizona, Miller's Crossing, Blood Simple, and Barton Fink dilemna. I'm tortured by it.

I can break it (and did for Nolan in the 90s list), but it's just a personal guideline I use to be inclusive and make difficult cuts. Like cutting They Live.
