Since it was titled simply "The Empire Strikes Back" in 1980, maybe give credit for that title here.

Hi, I think I included 'The Empire Strikes Back' as an acceptable answer but forgot to add 'Empire Strikes Back' without the 'The' into the acceptable type-ins. It should work now I think

Thank you :)

I have seen 90% of these movies when they came out - thanks for taking me back in time. Could accept James Bond, given that Star Wars works for Empire strikes back and Indiana Jones works for Raiders?

Hi, I was hoping that it would bring some nostalgia for some people so I'm glad :).

I included the 'Star Wars' and 'Indiana Jones' as acceptable answers because it was in the title, wasn't sure with the Bond one. It is included as an acceptable answer now though

Thanks for your feedback :)

Great selection, some superb years for films there.

I got all but four, two of them I hadn't heard of.

Can you add ESB as type in for Empire, given the four letter abbreviation works for the first one in 1985?

Great quiz though.

Thanks for accepting "James Bond." Way too many titles to try to run through. Also...way too much time.

Level 89

I spent a ton of time thinking about all the bond movies and I didn't even think to try that.

Great Quiz! Maybe accept 'Boot' for 'das Boot'? Articles are usually optional on this site

Level 65

Oof. 7/40 beats or equals 0.8%. On a popular culture quiz I'm never going to expect a score much better than that 17.5% but still I thought more than 1% of takers would be as bad
