Can you update your poll? You've left off One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and The Deer Hunter.

This is a hard Poll...

I voted Jaws because it has re-watch value more than The Godfather. Even though I love the Godfather, Jaws is a "fun ride."

JRS03 · 06-05-2009, 05:51 PM

I had to stop somewhere....no I didnt forget The Deer Hunter, Rocky, Patton or one of my own personal favs Saturday Night Fever. Just chose other...

OARmaster · 06-05-2009, 05:55 PM

I chose other. I am a bit surprised that actual Best Picture winners were not included while one which were only nominated or not nominated at all are included.

BoomerKS · 06-05-2009, 05:57 PM

Where is Taxi Driver and All the Presidents Men? Days of Heaven?

I would have skipped the poll and just did an open opinion question

The 1970's might just be the undisputed king sh*t decade for American movies. It is impossible for me to pick a favorite, since so many of my all time favorites were made during this period. A top ten would even be hard.

Moefiz · 06-05-2009, 06:02 PM

Godfather II...in my book

Gaius Marius · 06-05-2009, 06:07 PM

No Alien

My vote is Star Wars.

Jaws comes a close second, with Alien #3.

MCT · 06-05-2009, 06:09 PM

Star Wars would be my choice but I have to go with Godfather II. Just a pure work of art.

Cremildo · 05-09-2025, 06:36 PM

Alien.
