Anyone else think a particular year sucked, movie-wise?

[BakuryuuTyranno]

Iin the UK, The Mist wasn't released until '08, The Last Winter wasn't released theatrically (and most likely was also delayed), I remember '07 as "the year devoid of any good theatrical releases".

That thought is kinda strange. Does anyone else consider any given year terrible, movie-wise?

     1984- lots of dreadful, 3-D sci-fi drive-in fodder.

[Kaseykockroach]

Every year after 1978.

Luckily,1984 also had this masterpiece...

I think there were just too many mediocre films after about 2000.

[Rev. Powell]

This year, so far... 

[JaseSF]

Most of the 2000s seem pretty bad to me.

[Psycho Circus]

The past 15 years have been pretty wretched in my opinion...

[claws]

     1984- lots of dreadful, 3-D sci-fi drive-in fodder.

Seriously? I'll take 1984 over anything released since the mid-90's.

Isn't this list awesome or what?

Every year after 1978.

Yes.  Unfortunately 1970 - 1979 was the last decade that had any real movie mojo.

Perhaps, but Ghostbusters came out in 1984 so that redeems the rest of the year easily. 

[Doggett]

The Late 90's.

Just teen comedy nonsense. Rom coms...


The Sixth Sense that was pretty good. And The Faculty.
Im really struggling to think what else, if anything, I liked.

[JaseSF]

The 90s did give us:

12 Monkeys
Dark City
Gattaca
Contact
Cube
L.A. Confidential
Being John Malkovich
The Truman Show
Man on the Moon
Ed Wood
Jurassic Park
Terminator 2
Pi
Starship Troopers
Event Horizon
The Iron Giant
City of Lost Children
Ringu

Doesn't seem so bad a decade to me honestly. When we get to the 2000s era though, I have trouble thinking of stuff that isn't superhero or CGI animation related.

How about:

THE TRIPLETS OF BELLEVILLE
THE SECRET OF KELLS
BAD LIEUTENANT: POCNO
BATTLE ROYALE
DONNIE DARKO
ENTER THE VOID
ADAPTATION
ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND
KUNG FU HUSTLE
MIRRORMASK
OLDBOY
PAN'S LABYRINTH
PAPRIKA
AMELIE
SHAUN OF THE DEAD
A SERIOUS MAN

I would say 1966- though it was a weird year, because the year had: Manos; Night Train to Mundo Fine; The Wild World of Batwoman, but also The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly; Fahrenheit 451; Django.
