Ok people. Calm down. My inbox is flooded, the chat messages wont stop, and my phone wont stop ringing. The people are demanding a new top 10 list. Well it's that time again. We are about to embark on a journey through the greatest decade of movies, the 70's. So gentleman hold on to your dicks and ladies strap in those tits.
10. Jaws (1975) Steven Spielberg
"You're gonna need a bigger boat."
The grand motherfuckin daddy of all summer blockbusters. Intense, suspenseful, and even today, keeps people afraid of going in the water.
9. Chinatown (1974) Roman Polanski
"I dont get tough with anyone...my lawyer does."
A web of intrigue, murder, and calculated conspiracy. One of Nicholson's best performances of his career.
8. The Exorcist (1973) William Friedkin
"Your mother sucks cock in hell!"
The movie that every horror movie today seems to be ripping off. Billed as the scariest movie of all that and thats exactly what it is.
7. The French Connection (1971) William Friedkin
"Are you shitting me? That car is dirty!"
Greatest crime drama ever. One of the finest chase scenes in movie history. Gritty and dirty...just the way I like it.
6. The Deer Hunter (1978) Michael Cimino
"You're so full of shit, you're gonna float away!"
A saga of friendship and the damage brought on by war. Brutally realistic scenes that will never leave you.
5. Rocky (1976) John G. Avildsen
"He doesn't know it's a damn show, he thinks it's a damn fight!"
Probably the greatest feel good movie of all time. This film revolutionized how an audience percieves the story of an underdog.
4.One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (1975) Milos Forman
"You guys complain how much you hate it here and then dont have the guts to leave!"
Jack Nicholson steering up shit in a mental institution. At his best when attempting to get through to the patients who have given in to conformism. The nurse is the GOAT villain.
3.Apocalypse Now (1979) Francis Ford Coppola
"Part of me was afraid of what I would find and what I would do when I got there."
The best war movie of all time. A beautiful and brutal film. Captures the unfathomable horror and madness of war.
2.Taxi Driver (1976) Martin Scorsese
"You talkin' to me? Well I'm the only one here. Who the fuck do you think you're talking to? "
Theres so much I want to say about the greatness of this movie, but I will keep it short. A movie about a Vietnam vet who suffers from insomnia and takes a job as a cab driver. This is a character study of a man that slowly slips into insanity. Travis wants to wipe the violence of the streets of his city, and with nobody left to turn to and no friends, his inner demons take over.
1. The Godfather (1972) & The Godfather, Part 2 (1974) Francis Ford Coppola
"I'm going to make him an offer he cant refuse."
Yes I cheated by putting 2 movies together. I dont even know what to say. Im sure @Galanis could say it better than myself. These are the greatest movies ever made. The magnum opus of cinema. Masterpiece.
If you disagree with my list, please PM me your address so I can send you a box full of dog shit. If you have not seen a movie on this list, just pick and choose and thank me later.
