Easily.
If you're 19 years old and just recently became interested in film, yes
Someone’s in a mood
One of the worst actually. Star Wars finally snapped it out of the funk, though.
The best decade for film was the 1980s and if you disagree, you're mentally handicapped, like Tarantino.
>muh Star Wars
>muh 80s blockbuster renaissance
lol you should join Red Letter Media with those takes
Wow interesting take, 23-year-old!
Says the funkopop manchild who worships gay Wars LMAO
>h..how did you know my age?
Don't ask.
dialate
it's gotta suck to grow up in an era of totally shit media so i understand your frustration and jealousy, zoom zoom
So you admit you only think highly of it due to nostalgia
Maybe watch movies other than Ghostbusters and Back to the Future, manchild
Worshipping the 80s is almost as cringe as worshipping the 70s. It screams "I just got into film last week!"
t. sour grapes
All your entertainment are the doshit verion ot 80s stuff
>goting into film
What the frick are you talking about. You put the film on, you pasively consume it as the lowbrow entertainment it is meant to be and then move on.
Films predating Star Wars in the 70s - The French Connection, Godfather 1 & 2, The Exorcist, Jaws, A Clockwork Orange, Barry Lyndon, Rocky, The Sting......I dont know anon, I think you may be talking shit.
Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, Network, the Wicker Man, Get Carter.....
Taxi Driver Nig Nog cut
The French Connection suggs.
The Exorcist is ok, yet overrated.
All the Godfathers are overrated with just II being great.
Jaws is great, I'll grant you that. Clockwork sucks but has some neat synchronicities.
Rocky is also kino, but the 80's blew that away with just the 1986 year.
worst taste ever, Jaws was the start of dull and safe summer blockbusters
-t. Anon who thinks being bored is experiencing high art
Jaws and the first Rocky are pretty boring, yes
Rocky can be boring, no joke, but Jaws is perfectly paced, TV cut or theatrical.
Yes, by a fricking mile, it will never be equalled again.
No
Perhaps.
Yes.
It's definitely better than what we have now even if it isn't the best (which is really just a matter of preference).
no, there's like 2 dozen good films and then everything else is shit
Worst actually, on average. Actually it has probably been a steady decline since then but the 70s was a quantum leap in dog shit film.
70s is the easy answer and is probably true for American movies but worldwide the '60s is unmatched and smart American directors were beginning to do interesting shit even within the studio system (e.g. Frankenheimer)
No, that would be 90s and it's not even close, don't at me.
No, you just remember all of the good films while all of the many many shitty crappy films have been forgotten by time and can't be found on DVD or streaming because nobody cares.
/film/ already solved this, the correct ranking of the decades is:
20s > 60s > 70s > 50s > 2000s > 2010s > 90s > 80 > 10s > 40s > 30s
Definitely for crime movies.
