[tank666]

You put 3 best years for film - choose one? I'm confused or am I being dense?

 

[tank666]

Ah OK I can see heading says best year. 1984 for me

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Ah OK I can see heading says best year. 1984 for me

It's all good my friend. : - )

 

[Contempt]

This is just depressing as fuck... a reminder of just how pathetic modern hollywood has become. How did they go from these amazing movies to the absolute garbage of today, in only forty short years?

 

[Contempt]

Leaning towards '86... but there's no wrong answer here.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Leaning towards '86... but there's no wrong answer here.

Good choice, I picked 86 to.

 

[Streeter]

84 had the most iconic movies maybe ever in any single year (though 96 was big) ever imo so 1984.

 

[Wilmer Digreux]

1984

 

[SoSo]

Wow. This is actually really difficult! This is going to have to be a lunchtime shit contemplation rather than a morning shit one.

 

[AFanNotAFighter]

Went with 1986. Perhaps not better than the other choices but more movies in that year struck a nerve in me than the others.

 

[MLarson]

1982

 

[William Huggins]

1982 for me ......

 

[TheNinja]

84 or 87. I went 87

 

[Krixes]

OMG what the hell happened to Hollywood. So many good movies back in the day.

 

[I Am Legion]

82 or 87 for me.....1987 final answer.... begrudgingly....What a decade for cinema.

 

[Ima5starman]

OMG what the hell happened to Hollywood. So many good movies back in the day.

Quality entertainment is now TV/Streaming. Look at the top 20 shows in 1982

 

[Ima5starman]

Outside of Mash and Magnum PI, not much to see there

 

[rearnakedchoke]

I voted 1984, as it may be the greatest year ever recorded.

 

[Sweater of AV]

'84
