      I'm shocked how little people know about blue collar and it being one of the greatest movies I've ever seen,

    This is a really interesting show where they talk about the biggest hits of 1978, their personal favourites of 1978 and their least favourites of 1978. Patrick Shields' says this is his favourite of the Siskel & Ebert special shows because Gene makes an interesting point at around the 10:51 mark about blockbuster hits like Star Wars, Saturday Night Fever and Grease that are more likely to out crowd smaller films like Straight Time, An Unmarried Woman and Autumn Sonata. It's a trend that's been going on for nearly half a century.

      fun simpler movies will always have a wider appeal. Not everyone is in the mindset to watch serious films. Ebert says it best as 2:10
      will say where things are, films arent really appreciated they used to. Films used to feel like the peak of entertainment in American society not as much anymore. it really depends all where streaming is going. its looking like we'll just round about back to just having a cable like system but its just on Demand

    I'm honestly amazed at Siskel and Ebert's worst films picks. Medusa Touch is very grim in tone, but pretty effective - horror movies were a huge blind spot for both critics, while The Wild Geese is a perfectly decent action movie, even if the cast are somewhat elderly for their roles.

  • @haroldbelfast

    In no particular order:
    Capricorn One
    Animal House
    Lord of the Rings (Bakshi)
    Dawn of the Dead
    Heaven Can Wait
    Invasion of the Bodysnatchers
    Superman
    Midnight Express
    The Last Waltz
    Corvette Summer
    The Deer Hunter
    Starcrash (for its sheer cheesiness)

    I I have never seen Grease. And I doubt I ever will. But I have made up for it by watching Animal House twenty times.

      This foreshadows their frustrations with the 80s well. Although they loved Jaws, Star Wars, and Superman, these films marked a steady decline from the heady highs of the late 60s/early 70s that made their jobs such a delight.

    Yep enjoyed Jaws 2 immensely it doesn't surpass the original but it did have more attacks than the original kinda like Friday the 13th in the ocean

    The real greatest movie of 1978 is Blue Collar starring yaphet kotto Richard Pryor and Harvey Keitel

      I think Jaws 2 is a 3 out of five. Not a bad movie but still not a great one
