You people act like I said no good movies were ever made in the 70s.

I do think many of the examples are starkly overrated by baby boomer types, though. Which probably account for the vast majority of the responses in this thread. Should have known better.

No we're acting like you said it was the worst decade for movies, and in order to say something so incredibly stupid, you must not know jackshit about films. So we're going to ignore you.

Yep.

Godfather I and II, Jaws, Star Wars, Apocalypse Now, Taxi Driver, Rocky, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Deer Hunter, Halloween, Dirty Harry, Grease, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Annie Hall...all our favorites as fans of movies...starkly overrated.

We won't have to worry about him anymore guys.

I think he just got banned. He posted a thread over on the OT that had a nude woman in it. It was not porn, just nudity. Got whacked with the quickness.

And dude got fricking hammered in his own thread right here. Wow.

Were you talking about the quality of the prints (grainy), shape (non-wide screen) or are you saying the plots & acting was terrible in the 70's?

If the latter is the case you are making, what are some example of great movies?
