Not as good as 1968, but nothing to sneeze at IMHO. And no, I didn't forget M*A*S*H, Five Easy Pieces, Little Big Man, or Catch-22; they just lost out on their letter to something I liked better. What I do regret leaving out is Beneath the Planet of the Apes, Two Mules for Sister Sara, Brewster McCloud, Equinox, Woodstock, Bloody Mama, Chisum, The Wizard of Gore, Elvis - That's the Way it Is, The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes, and My Name is Trinity -- especially My Name is Trinity. That was the hardest one to leave out. And feel free to also consider this a big old middle-finger toward Love Story. Can't stand that damn movie...

I really enjoyed looking through this, W.B. I may steal your idea, though 1970 is probably a lot more interesting (at least in terms of poster art) than 1960!
Your more than welcome. And feel free to steal away.
