70s for me.

The movies that made me pick the 70s are the following.


Superman I(Hackman, Reeve]
Enter The Dragon[Bruce Lee]
Serpico[Pacino]
Scarecrow[Hackman, Pacino]
Godfather I and II[Brando, Pacino, De Niro etc.]
A Clockwork Orange
Taxi Driver[De Niro, Kitel(spelling)]
Rocky[Stallone]
The Exorcist
Star Wars
The Deer Hunter[De Niro, Walken]
The French Connection[Hackman]
Dog Day Afternoon[Pacino]
And Justice For All[Pacino]
The Poseidon Adventure[Hackman]
Mean Streets[De Niro]

I'm young, I was not around when these movies came out. I'm 23 now, but believe it or not, these are the movies I grew up watching on tv. As young as like 13 years old, I have seen all of these movies a bunch of times each already, and a lot more. Of course I saw other movies from the 80s and 90s growing up, but this is the decade that has some really unforgettable films for me.

I can name all of my favorite movies from the 70s-90s honestly and just make a super list, but I just had to go with the 70s.

Not a bad list, with Clint Eastwood as one big omission.

City of Lost Children was a French arthouse film, not a B movie at all. And I wouldn't say that Hellboy was Perlman's "big break". It was maybe his first major leading role but he is and always will be more of a character actor than a leading man because of his massive big face.

i know he was in lots of movies before hellboy but his first bigbreak in a major leading role was hellboy. the guy who directed hellboy also did one of the "blade"movies & perlman was in a supporting role as a vampire henchmen. when the script for hellboy was given to the hollywood powers that be, they didn't want to use perlman they wanted to use a star like brad pitt, affleck, etc. he turned around & said he wouldn't release the script or make the movie unless ron perlman was the star...respect to the director for his loyalty...can't recall who the director was...
