Those all seem like 1980 dates to me. So I am keeping Superman II on my 1980 list

US release date is all that counts in my book and it was not released until the Summer that Raiders of the Lost Ark was....take out the long good friday I dont care I will change my list. Jeez even these best of lists threads can't go untainted. Maybe all thes polls and lists should just go bye bye? Czar you might want to specify in the future US release dates because if a movie opens in say Tasmania 2 weeks before the end of the year it wont count.

But if we got rid of them then there'd be NO posts at all

Will that help when your getting Ferris Buellers Day Off on some lists? As Duke Henry The Red would say "I do not think they'll listen."

I agree when I list movies I go by US date.. but if I was a resident of another country and the film saw a wide release their first I would do the same (EG - Castle in the Sky came out in 84 in Japan, I have it listed as my #1 movie from 89 as thats when it hit the States)

[DrrnHarr]

My list (in no particular order):

* Empire Strikes Back
* Airplane!
* Flash Gordon
* Superman II (I'm putting this on my list because I saw it in 1980)
* The Final Countdown
* Private Benjamin
* Smokey and the Bandit 2
* Ffolkes (a 1979 release in Europe as "North Sea Hijack"but since we are doing US domestic release dates)
* Sea Wolves
* Rough Cut

Almost rans:
* Hopscotch
* Seems Like Old Times
* Any Which Way You Can
* Ordinary People
* Blue Lagoon
* Somewhere In Time
