The Hollywood censorship code ended in the late 60s and it was before Cable and Home video dumbed movies down in the 80s.
Also directors gained more control over their films in the 70s allowing them to bring their vision to life. Before that the studio system was very restrictive and went as far as editing the films.
Literally all of these are either made by pedophiles or are incredibly reddit-tier cringe.
Not a single kino on this list. KYS.
Seriously.
left field movies performed well into the late 60s (leading up into the decade) and studios sought to exploit niches that ultimately overlapped with the interests of the 70s arts and crafts community.
trying too hard
you forgot about the mountain of shit out there too
70s kino is the only redeeming quality of the boomers
meh. you could name 20 great films from any decade. 70s is overhyped.
fuck off fedora
name 20 from the 2010s
There was also a ton of shit in the 70s. You have the benefit of the filter of time. Everyone stopped talking about the shit movies so it retrospect it seems like every movie of that era was great. There are still plenty of great movies coming out, they just don't always get wide releases.
It's subjective. Like he could but then you would say those were not your kind of films.
League of Decency had been dead for about 15 years by 1980... that's when people stopped trying to make the great american movie and focused on making a hit
The theory is that after 15 years, a movement becomes historical. So Neo-Noir trails off in the 1950's and you end up with a Chinatown roughly fifteen years later. The Monster movie dies off and it's resurrected as a psychological monster movie in the 70's. American graffiti could really be set fifteen years before.
What a tryhard little faggot you are
New Hollywood. If you were a famous director or had a famous director friend who would vouch for you, film companies would hand you a blank check to make a movie.
>movies in the 70s
>The King of Comedy
Look up the period of "New Hollywood".
not a 70s movie but still fits under the "New Hollywood period from the late 60s to very early 80s.
You notice that movies from 1980-1995 fall into a much more comedic style of character study or fantasy-horror. Then from 1995-2010 you have huge amount of disaster films.
2010 to 2025 may comprise a style in the future.
>2010 to 2025 may comprise a style in the future.
christ i hope not
There wasn't any more kino in the 70s than there were any other decade. I too can cherry pick the greatest 20 films of a decade and make it look fantastic. What no one sees is all the shit that was quickly forgotten.
idk. Spielberg, De Palma, Carpenter, Eastwood, Mann, Ferrara, Malick etc. kept making great american films after 1980.
Even 70s porn was kino. Prude retards and the dumb SJW shits still had no grasp on anything beyond losers hanging out in libraries.

Studios just let film-school kiddies run wild cause all the baby boomers were growing up and wanted to see 'cool' movies, not the boring old movies their parents wanted to watch.
80s films look so much better tho espically the arthouse stuff
> I too can cherry pick the greatest 20 films of a decade
Do it. Pick 20 movies from the 80's, 90's, or 2000's.
>HARD MODE: 2010's

>disillusioned generation begins to question their place in the world in the face of rapidly changing society and technology
is it really so hard? everything is cyclical. the only downside to the current generations is everything has been mined to death, we need a new medium of expression.
>I hope not
It's inevitable because of the economic downtown, critics will figure out how the stories parallel the economic realities and the way people use social media.

Yeah but they shift from making personal projects like Close Encounters to E.T. the extra terrestrial. Malick didn't direct from 1980-1995... and when he comes back with The Thin Red Line, it's in a deeply Classical style. My theory is that without the Gothic influence of the League of Decency, filmmakers naturally relied on more Classical influences.

I would say video games, but faggot SJW hipsters latched onto and currently have a stranglehold on the independent market and will actively fuck you over if you don't fall in lock-step with their bullshit. Then you have the hollywood equivalents like EA, Ubisoft, etc.

I thought you guys said it was supposed to be hard. Are you sure you guys just don't watch that many films?
no problem
like half of those range from mediocre to bad
name them with detailed reasoning then.
>Empire Strikes Back
>Return of the Jedi
>The Thing
lol
Turin Horse and The Tree of Life are the only good movies on that list
>asks for detailed reasoning
>without giving his for choosing such shit movies as kino
drive, BR2049, pseud horse, whiplash, the master, her, the hunt
>with detailed reasoning
can’t be fucked to type that shit out
>drive
Combined arthouse with a mainstream action film to create meaningful and emotional experience.
>BR2049
amazing followup to the original film while still having its own identity
>turin horse
its frickin bela tarr, 'nuff said
>whiplash
intense character study, amazing performances by the two leads, especially Simmons
>the master
lowkey PTA's best film, very underrated
>her
possibly Joaquin Phoenix's best performance, timeless film that will still feel futuristic and cutting edge for decades to come
>the hunt
conveyed a delicate subject with suspense, great ending
Again, what's the problem?
>not liking the thing
batman vs superman: dawn of justice
Reminder that The New World and Revenge of The Sith are the two best films of that decade.
>incendies instead of sicario
Prime Mélissa Désormeaux is kino but Sicario played out infinitely better.
Also, where's Inherent Vice?

Sounds like a booming time.
Directors had way more freedom to experiment. It's simple as that and now studios control everything except for a few auteurs who have clout.
