The first decade of talkies... pre-Hayes code... when Betty Boop was sexy, conduct could be adult, and funny was funny. Movies got more refined after 1939, but not better.
If it wasn't for bad taste, I wouldn't have no taste at all.

It's the 90's for me
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

It's quite obvious that the 80's wins

Glad to see there's at least one other who thinks this is so.

Was a tie between 90s and 00s, voted for 00s. I have about 15 movies that were made before 1990, out of those 15 have only watched 8, so the other decades werent really a choice for me

While I really like the 90's, I think the 80's wins due to flicks like Scarface, Raiders, Star Wars (even though I hate them now, I did love them before knowing who Lucas was) Alien(s), etc.

Now if we're talking porn movies, there's no question. 1900's ( I kid I kid). The 80's by a freakin' landslide!

For those my favourite period is the seventies. Real movie with trained actors (they can act), quality script, professionally made, ...

A lot of the adult movie of this time are better than the mainstream one, by exemple "The Opening of Misty Beethoven" is one of the best movie made in this decade and I count mainstream film too. A lot of those movies are lost or cut to pieces, but nothing beat the fun to listen them. This is movies that you watch from the beginning to the end, because you care about the story. The eighties one are ok, but not so good a lot of them are just masturbation material.

But it's not that bad to look at Tracey Adams, Samantha Strong or Keisha

I voted for the 1990s as that is when I went to the movies often and have memories of some great movies. But it was a toss up witht he 2000s as well.

The 80's for me. Perhaps since I grew up mostly in that decade, but there are soooo many great films.
