Man, there are some pretty... pretty heroin addicts. It was a vogue drug, remember.

Also I was going to comment on Est's apparent zeal for heroin cinema. I'm surprised Trainspotting didn't take '96.

Surgoshan:
My criterion?  Which movie from that year would I/do I own?

1981 - Raiders of the Lost Ark
1982 - Blade Runner (I already own Conan the Barbarian, which is a surprisingly cinematic piece, for all that the plot sucks balls; The scoring is perfect.  However, I think BR is the superior film.)
1983 - A Christmas Story
1984 - The Gods Must Be Crazy
1985 - Back to the Future
1986 - Ferris Bueller's Day Off (Narrowly beating F/X and the Transformers movie.)
1987 - The Princess Bride.  No contest.
1988 - Die Hard!
1989 - Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
1990 - Tremors
1991 - Silence of the Lambs
1992 - My Cousin Vinny
1993 - True Romance
1994 - The Shawshank Redemption (narrowly beating Pulp Fiction, PCU a close third)
1995 - The Usual Suspects
1996 - The Birdcage
1997 - The Full Monty
1998 - The Big Lebowski
1999 - Run, Lola, Run (Just beats Office Space)
2000 - O Brother, Where Art Thou edges out The Whole Nine Yards
2001 - Gosford Park
2002 - Super Troopers
2003 - 28 Days Later...
2004 - The Incredibles
