1970s movie suggestions!
Added 2025-06-10 15:00:14 +0000 UTCEvery week, there will be a post asking for movie suggestions from a different decade!
Only 1 movie suggestion per person, if you suggest two, both will be disqualified. Similarly to previous posts, please ❤ every comment that contains a movie that you want to vote for. PLEASE LIMIT YOUR COMMENT TO ONLY MENTION 1 MOVIE. Also, movies that are suggested a second time will only count as 1 vote (so if two people suggest the same movie and both comments get 8 votes, it will only count as 9 votes (the comment with the most votes + 1 for the extra suggestion)).
For these posts, the top 4 movies will be put on a poll on YouTube (YT only allows a maximum of 4 options). I will determine the top 4 comments the following Tuesday when the next post is up.
I ask that you please limit the runtime of the movies to 3h (I've seen that there are some movies that are longer, and I am not up for that monumental task quite yet).
For this post, please suggest movies that were released between 1970-1979 inclusively. Any genre goes!
Next Tuesday, there will be a post for 1980s, the Tuesday after that for 1990s, etc. The poll for the decade will be up on YouTube the following Tuesday evening or Wednesday at the latest.
I feel like there's a better way to do this kind of suggestion/voting, but I'm not too sure what that is. I'm open for suggestions!

Thanks for giving my choice of The Sting a like. If you want to really help the cause, scroll down to Henkan's post for The Sting and give him a like. Since he already has the most likes adding to his count will help the most. Also, if you submit The Sting as your choice that will add to the overall total.

2025-06-10 15:32:56 +0000 UTC"The Three Musketeers" (1973) - What I consider the definitive telling of Alexandre Dumas' Musketeers saga. Directed by Richard Lester. Stars: Michael York as D'Artagnan, Oliver Reed as Athos, Richard Chamberlain as Aramis, Frank Finlay as Porthos, Charlton Heston as Cardinal Richelieu, Faye Dunaway as Milady DeWinter, Christopher Lee as Rochfort, Raquel Welch as Constance, plus many, many more. "The Four Musketeers" (1974) picks up and concludes the story where this one leaves off. Although it technically isn't a sequel as it was filmed at the same time and because the run time was so long the producers split the movie into two.
