The MoFo Top 100 of the 1970s: Countdown

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 1970s: Countdown

I really liked 10 Rillington Place too. Echoing what HK said, it's not really a film that would have made my top 25.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 1970s: Countdown

That makes 17 from my list so far. Chinatown was my no.5 pick. To me, it's an absolute masterpice of film-noir. A classy, complex and darkly humorous all time great.

Seen 78/95

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 1970s: Countdown

From that list of nearly-made-it's i had Wake in Fright, Richard Pryor and The Last Detail. I can't believe the latter didn't make the top 100. Anyway, my prediction is as follows:
1. Taxi Driver...

Barry Lyndon was at number 12 on my list. On reflection, it could have been higher but i'm glad it's featured highly.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 1970s: Countdown

I honestly thought The Conversation would be higher. It was my no. 3 as far as I remember. That makes 11 from my list so far and i expect another 12 to make it.. Seen 68 of the 84.

I see Cuckoo finishing above Clockwork. Pretty much agree with the films in the top 10 though. Not heard much about Barry Lyndon, any guesses?

You're wrong. Rocky IV is the best of the lot. I thought that was obvious.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 1970s: Countdown

Solaris and American Graffiti both made my list. I love them both. Life of Brian was close to making my list, however it got pushed out late on, its a very quotable film. Still to see Cabaret.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 1970s: Countdown

I really wanted to see both these films but didnt get round to it (still), I reckon i would like both and i thought the original Snatchers was great.

That brings me down to 20/32 seen.
