Obviously there are a lot of movies missing from Metacritic, and because I know that the further back in time you go, the harder it must be to find reviews, I thought I would start by suggesting a few additions from the somewhat recent 1970s...

Animal House
Annie Hall
The Conversation
The Last Picture Show
M*A*S*H
Nashville
Network
One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
Taxi Driver
Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory
A Woman Under The Influence


Anybody else have any suggestions?

How about ...

Love Story
Rocky
Smokey and the Bandit
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Grease
Kramer vs. Kramer
The Sting
American Graffiti
Dirty Harry
Jaws
SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER!!!

Hey, KT, Saturday Night Fever is in there! And yes, if we can find at least 6 or 7 quality reviews (reviews from our list of 39 critics) for an older movie, we'll add it. However, keep in mind that it's tough to find good reviews for films released before 1990.

Oops I got lazy ... I was checking to make sure I wasn't suggesting things that were there, but then I got so excited about Saturday Night Fever that I didn't ...

Also, it seems like this will kind of get taken care of naturally, as movies get released or re-released on DVD, I imagine they'll go up on the site.

Well, keep up the good work.
