Re: How many yearly #1 films have you seen? For the past decade or so, I have generally tried to avoid the yearly #1 film - - it is one of the most reliable predictors of crappiness.

Re: How many yearly #1 films have you seen? I like the way that list goes into the future, too. And it is interesting to see how many big money-making films have been lost to history. This once more proves that real quality is judged by time, not instant success.
Starting in 1930, I have not seen:
1930 Tom Sawyer
1932 The Most Dangerous Game
1936 How to Become a Detective
1939 Gone with the Wind
1943 This is the Army
1947 Forever Amber
1948 The Snake Pit
1949 Samson and Delilah
1956 The Ten Commandments
1957 The Bridge on the River Kwai
1958 South Pacific
1959 Ben-Hur
1962 The Longest Day
1963 Cleopatra
1966 The Bible
1971 Billy Jack
1973 The Exorcist
1976 Rocky
1978 Grease
1986 Top Gun
1987 3 Men and a Baby
1990 Home Alone
2000 How the Grinch Stole Christmas

Re: How many yearly #1 films have you seen? Three Men and a Baby is the most random #1 I've ever seen. Directed by Spock of all people. But Hey Cheers and Magnum were the two biggest TV shows at the time, and of course The Gutt!. People forget that almost 50 million turned in for the end of Magnum. Also an extremely underrated and entertaining film.

Re: How many yearly #1 films have you seen? I'm confused by it. Wiki has Fiddler on the Roof as the #1 film of 1971, and Billy Jack isn't even in the top 25?
IMDb says it received a limited release in the US in May 1971, and later a re-release in 1973.

Re: How many yearly #1 films have you seen? Perhaps the-numbers added the re-release to the original year. Its not the most accurate site.
