I posted a thread like this years ago on Film General, got a reasonable amount of replies, thought I'd try it again. It's been years since I posted on IMDb's Film General, as I spend most of my time (as Thor-Delta) on the TV boards and Music General.
Anyway, what is your favourite film for each of the above years? Yes, they had films in 1896.

1926 - The General
1936 - Modern Times
1946 - It's A Wonderful Life
1956 - The Searchers
1966 - The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
1976 - Taxi Driver
1986 - Big Trouble in Little China
1996 - Scream
2006 - The Prestige
2016 - La La Land
Can't claim myself as an expert on many of these years except the most recent one so obviously it's not the best list possible... yet.

@darkprofile I'll check out Démolition d'un mur. I love extremely old demolition footage, and I love 19th century actuality shorts, so this should be a winner for me.

It depicts, for the first time, the magical, spiritual power of camera, provided you see it from the right perspective. Watch Now You Tell One as well. It's on youtube. The intertitles are in French, but the film is visual enough to be enjoyed. |

"Sorry, I don't watch films released after 2008"
Why is that?

@silentsiren totally agree. I find the modern films soulless.

1946 - The Harvey Girls
1956 - Giant
1966 - Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
1976 - The Omen
1986 - Betty Blue
1996 - Fargo
2006 - This is England
Not the best list as I haven't seen many from 1946 - 1976.
2016 is missing because I've seen two films: 'The Girl on the Train' and 'Fantastic Beasts', they were OK but I'm sure there are much better films I've yet to see.

Yes, they had films in 1896. 1916 - 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea 1926 - 3 Bad Men by John Ford 1936 - The Great Ziegfeld 1946 - The Yearling (even though I know"The Best Years of our Lives" or "The Razor's Edge" are probably better films). 1956 - The Ten Commandments 1966 - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly 1976 - Rocky 1986 - Ferris Bueller's Day Off off (Even thought I know Platoon is a better film, and possibly Top Gun) 1996 - Primal Fear with Ed Norton and Richard Gere 2006 - Either "The Departed" or "Casino Royale" 2016 - Hell or High Water or Manchester by the Sea |
