    Yeah, because most of my remaining films are Japanese movies that no one's ever heard of, or those ubiquitous "nature attacks" movies (giant ants, sentient ants, killer whales, tarantulas, forest animals, dolphins, cockroaches, etc.). Good lord there were a ton of nature attacks films from the 70s. As a kid I loved them (and some, like the aforementioned Squirm, are pretty good schlock), but no one would mistake them for "the best of the '70s."

    (But I still have a few gold nuggets up my sleeve)

    We could use more animation here so:

    Second:
    Pete's Dragon

    Nominate:
    Charlotte's Web
    1973
    Charles August Nichols, Iwao Takamoto

    I was a kid in the 80s so a lot of my 70s movie experience was in movies intended for kids.

    Grrr...I got in late and I still have some really great films to nominate. The list of films so far only reinforces, for me at least, that this is the best decade of film of all time.
