I'm still undecided even as I type this. The 70's and 80's both were pretty even when I go back and look.

Of course the 70's movies listed are awesome but the 80's has a pretty damn good list in its own right.

Brazil
Amadeus
Raging Bull
Blade Runner
Raiders of the lost ark
Das Boot
The Empire Strikes Back
The Blues Brothers
Spinal Tap
Caddyshack
Ghostbusters
Scarface
The Terminator
Platoon
The Killing Fields
Glory

Tough call for me but 2/3rds of my top ten movies of alltime are from the 70's so I guess i'm inclined to agree. Loathsome Pete made a good point, dialogue was on a better level in earlier movies because special effects/graphic violence/nudity were not included.
