Favorite Movie from the Year you were Born.

[S.A.A.D.]

The Terminator (1984)
A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)

 

[Sawyer]

Yeah... all films that don't do much for me. Except I haven't seen Wayne's World.

Sharon Stone spread her legs though.

Remedy that. Immediately!

 

[Hound55]

To an extent. I like BR, but I don't love it like B89. Now if it was '89, then I could say either B89 or Last Crusade.

'89 was a golden year goddammit.

Not just a golden year but pretty much a golden weekend... About 3 or 4 biggies came out pretty much the same time (Honey I shrunk the kids and Lethal Weapon 2 were the others)... Can remember a Weird Al Yankovic interview where he talked about his cult hit UHF and the timing of its theatrical release.

 

[nite-owl]

Die Hard
My Neighbour Totoro

 

[SuperFerret]

The fact that you other 84's haven't mentioned the only movie worth mentioning from that year disappoints me.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

 

[Jochimus]

Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope

Same here; Smokey & The Bandit comes in a close second for me.

 

[Golgo-13]

1974 - Foxy Brown (Pam Grier )

 

[Metallo]

For me this is the obvious answer

But THIS is a very close second.

[bullets]

1982

 

[Figs]

Either Raiders of the Lost Ark or An American Werewolf in London.

Some other ones worth mentioning...

Scanners
The Road Warrior
The Howling
Clash of the Titans
Superman II
Escape From New York
Taps
Das Boot(original release in '81)
The Evil Dead
Heavy Metal
The Great Muppet Caper

[redfirebird2008]

Man ... do I feel old now ...

1972 The Godfather

Do I win a prize or something?

Holy crap.

 

[steintym]

Holy crap.

Let me guess ... Parents were born in '72? t:

 

[redfirebird2008]

Let me guess ... Parents were born in '72? t:

Bwhahaha, nah. But the scary thing is there are some kids on here who might fit that description. Makes me feel old at 25.

 

[steintym]

Bwhahaha, nah. But the scary thing is there are some kids on here who might fit that description. Makes me feel old at 25.

I know ... Most of the movies being posted in here I actually saw in the theater when they came out.

 

[Franklin Richards]

 

[redfirebird2008]

Even older than the Godfather guy.

 

[Kane52630]

Damn, this is hard. Either Hoop Dreams or Pulp Fiction.

Woah you were born in 94?

Not that I'm much older than you, this just took me by suprise.

Yeah, I'm one of the youngest on SHH.

I call bulls*** on that sir.

Home Alone (1990)

(Edward Scissorhands was a very close 2nd)

 

[CBGB]

Schindler's List & Jurassic Park, '93

 

[Frankenmation]

Back To The Future, 1985. Of course.

 

[Killgore]

I was born in 1975 so it is Jaws of course.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

Either they don't do much for me or I haven't seen them.

This, especially the former.

Batman Returns doesn't do much for you?!?!

To be honest, I hated Batman Returns.

Remedy that. Immediately!

Yeah you need to fix that. It's still my favorite film of Mike Myers.

1974 - Foxy Brown (Pam Grier )

Yes, Pam Grier was hot.

 

[redfirebird2008]

To be honest, I hated Batman Returns.
