 Re: List Your Favourite Film of Each Year
I've used the-numbers release date info before. It has fewer and fewer releases the further you go back, but it usually has a lot of good ones. Also, I think you can sort individual years on imdb by number of votes and ranking, which could help see what the most people have seen and what people like the most, but I could be wrong.

 Re: List Your Favourite Film of Each Year
I'll go back to the year I was born. But consider that since I've only been a really serious movie watcher for a few years now, most of these picks aren't "authentic."
1990: Goodfellas 1991: Beauty and the Beast 1992: Unforgiven 1993: Schindler's List 1994: Forrest Gump (toughest year to pick since I also love Pulp Fiction and The Shawshank Redemption) 1995: Apollo 13 1996: Fargo 1997: Titanic 1998: Saving Private Ryan 1999: American Beauty
2000: Traffic 2001: Moulin Rouge 2002: Minority Report 2003: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King 2004: Million Dollar Baby 2005: Munich 2006: The Departed 2007: There Will Be Blood

 Re: List Your Favourite Film of Each Year
I've seen too few movies so:
2011: Super 8 2010: How to Train Your Dragon 2009: Half Blood Prince 2008: Speed Racer 2007: Ratatouille 2006: Dead Man's Chest 2005: King Kong 2004: Incredibles 2003: Finding Nemo 2002: The Two Towers 2001: Monsters Inc. 2000: Perfect Storm 1999: Toy Story 2 1998: Enemy of the State
Animation tends to be my favourite though hence the heavily-skewed list.

 Re: List Your Favourite Film of Each Year
OK, this is my list of favorite films of each year -- not what I would consider the "best" film for each year but instead the film that I personally enjoy the most from that year.
It tends to be heavy on comedies. Guess that's just my style.
The frustrating thing, as some have noted here, is that some years were pretty darn terrible and other years had so many good films it is almost impossible to choose one.
1920 The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari 1921 The Kid 1922 Nosferatu 1923 Our Hospitality 1924 Sherlock Jr. 1925 The Gold Rush 1926 Son of the Sheik 1927 Metropolis 1928 Steamboat Bill, Jr. 1929 The Cocoanuts 1930 Animal Crackers 1931 City Lights 1932 Horsefeathers 1933 Duck Soup 1934 It Happened One Night 1935 Bride of Frankenstein 1936 Modern Times 1937 The Awful Truth 1938 The Adventures of Robin Hood 1939 The Wizard of Oz 1940 His Girl Friday 1941 Citizen Kane 1942 To Be Or Not To Be 1943 Casablanca 1944 Arsenic and Old Lace 1945 Spellbound 1946 It's a Wonderful Life 1947 Monsieur Verdoux 1948 The Treasure of the Sierra Madre 1949 Adam's Rib 1950 Sunset Boulevard 1951 Strangers On a Train 1952 Singin' in the Rain 1953 Roman Holiday 1954 Rear Window 1955 Mister Roberts 1956 The Searchers 1957 12 Angry Men 1958 Vertigo 1959 North by Northwest 1960 Inherit the Wind 1961 Judgment at Nuremberg 1962 To Kill a Mockingbird 1963 The Birds (A terrible year) 1964 Dr. Strangelove 1965 Help! 1966 A Man For All Seasons 1967 Bonnie and Clyde 1968 2001: A Space Odyssey 1969 Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid 1970 M*A*S*H 1971 A Clockwork Orange 1972 The Godfather 1973 American Graffiti 1974 Chinatown 1975 Monty Python and the Holy Grail 1976 All the President's Men 1977 Annie Hall 1978 Deer Hunter (Another poor year) 1979 Apocalypse Now 1980 The Empire Strikes Back 1981 Raiders of the Lost Ark 1982 ET 1983 Return of the Jedi 1984 Amadeus 1985 Brazil 1986 Platoon (Another meh year) 1987 The Princess Bride 1988 Who Framed Roger Rabbit 1989 Do The Right Thing 1990 Goodfellas 1991 The Silence of the Lambs 1992 Malcolm X 1993 Groundhog Day 1994 The Lion King 1995 Toy Story 1996 Fargo 1997 Austin Powers 1998 Saving Private Ryan 1999 South Park 2000 O Brother Where Art Thou? 2001 Moulin Rogue! 2002 Gangs of New York 2003 The Return of the King 2004 The Incredibles 2005 Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 2006 Children of Men 2007 Ratatouille 2008 The Dark Knight 2009 Inglorious Basterds 2010 True Grit
