´´Whhooooo! ZZZZZooooosh!!! Bang! Bang!! Whizz! Pow! Kaa-boooom! Zap Zap Zoooommm!! AArrrrrghhhhh! Nooooooo!!!!´´

 

Any top 5 70s list that doesn't have Network on it is a poor list.

 

Not fair... The decade is absurdly stacked

 

I know, but that's how brilliant Network is. Each list should have GF and Network. The other three are totally subjective.

 

I have to see this network film that you speak of. You have me intrigued now

Better than Avatar...

Just fuckin with you, I'm done with that.

Seriously, it's a must watch. One of the best movies ever.

 

YOU HAVE MEDDLED WITH THE PRIMAL FORCES OF NATURE MR.BEALE!!!

 

You're television incarnate, diana; insensitive to joy, indifferent to suffering, all of life with you is reduced to the common rubble of banality.

 

I'M A HUMAN BEING, GODDD DAMMIT, MY LIFE HAS MEANING!

 

That film has become frighteningly less and less satirical as time has gone by

 

"We know... that the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat! And we sit watching our TVs while some local news caster tells us that today we had 15 homicides and 63 violent crimes, AS IF THAT'S THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSE TO BE! We know things are bad, worse than bad! They're CRAZY!"

 

It bored me to death back in the day. Of course I was just a teen at the time and didn't give a shit about this kind of film.

 

Peter Finch was fantastic
