You can post a list of anywhere between 5 and 20 films (or more, but only 20 will be counted) from the year we're covering. The deciding factor in terms of release dates is the RYM list and the top 10 of each year will go on to the final top 100 round. The deadline is September 25th.

The points scheme is as follows:
1. 50 points
2. 40
3. 35
4. 30
5. 25
6. 20
7. 18
8. 16
9. 14
10. 12
11. 10
10. 9
...
20. 1
However, these are the maximum amounts of points. If you want to put certain films on your list but don't want to give them too many points, you can choose to give these less points than in this scheme (but never more) to decrease the impact on the overall results. If you don't specifically state that you want to give (some of) your films fewer points, I will assume the standard scheme.

Here are some lists to remind you of the great (and awful) films released in 1987, from a variety of sources:
IMDb
RYM
Films101
RottenTomatoes

1. Der Himmel über Berlin (Wim Wenders)
2. Full Metal Jacket (Stanley Kubrick)
3. Au Revoir les Enfants (Louis Malle)
4. Empire of the Sun (Steven Spielberg)
5. Hong Gao Liang / Red Sorghum (Yimou Zhang)
6. Raising Arizona (Joel & Ethan Coen)
7. RoboCop (Paul Verhoeven) 15
8. The Untouchables (Brian de Palma) 14
9. Wall Street (Oliver Stone) 10
10. Predator (John McTiernan) 5

Karhozat / Damnation is a 1988 film, right?

1. Wings of Desire / Wim Wenders / West Germany
2. Prince of Darkness / John Carpenter / U.S.
3. Bad Taste / Peter Jackson / New Zealand
4. Matewan / John Sayles / U.S.
5. The Emperor's Naked Army Marches On / Kazuo Hara / Japan
6. Barfly / Barbet Schroeder / U.S.
7. RoboCop / Paul Verhoeven / U.S.
8. Predator / John McTiernan / U.S.
9. Moonstruck / Norman Jewison / U.S.
10. Damnation / Bela Tarr / Hungary
11. Raising Arizona / Joel Coen / U.S.
12. The Belly of an Architect / Peter Greenaway / U.K.
13. House of Games / David Mamet / U.S.
14. Withnail & I / Bruce Robinson / U.K.
15. The Cyclist / Mohsen Makhmalbaf / Iran
16. Red Sorghum / Zhang Yimou / China
17. Blind Chance / Krzysztof Kieslowski / Poland
18. Full Metal Jacket / Stanley Kubrick / U.S.
19. Yeelen / Souleymane Cisse / Mali
20. The Princess Bride / Rob Reiner / U.S.

My only major recommendation that people probably haven't seen yet is Damnation. It's a Bela Tarr film, like Satantango except not seven hours long.

@Gillingham

I thought it was 1988 too but RYM says 1987. IMDB says the first release was 1988. Ruling Stephan?

Also, Aur Revior Les Enfants is excellent, it's a film about a Catholic school sheltering a Jewish boy during the holocaust.

Wings of Desire and Raising Arizona are two of my favorite films but most of you have already seen them.

1. 倩女幽魂 [A Chinese Ghost Story]
2. Der Himmel über Berlin [Wings of Desire]
3. Raising Arizona
4. Hellraiser
5. Full Metal Jacket
6. RoboCop
7. Au revoir les enfants [Goodbye, Children]
8. Empire of the Sun
9. Predator
10. The Running Man
11. Hope and Glory
12. The Last Emperor
13. Masters of the Universe
14. Near Dark
15. Cobra Verde [Slave Coast]
16. The Untouchables
17. Hamlet liikemaailmassa [Hamlet Goes Business]
18. Good Morning, Vietnam
19. Lethal Weapon
20. Beverly Hills Cop II

Lots of movies I've seen as a child. I'm pretty sure that if I saw He-Man movie first time today it wouldn't be near of my top 20.

1. Full Metal Jacket
2. Raising Arizona
3. House of Games
4. Wings of Desire
5. Broadcast News
6. Near Dark
7. Red Sorghum
8. The Untouchables
9. Robocop
10. Pelle the Conqueror

We go by RYM, so 1987.

I watched Wings of Desire and I'm a little disappointed. The later half was pretty amazing, but the first hour or so bored me half to death.

I just noticed that Family Viewing is a 1987 movie in RYM (and 1988 movie in IMDB). While we go with the RYM years I'd say the movie is my new #13.

Damnnnn this year was good. My top 10 looks more like a top 10 of the whole decade, not just movies of 87. All this shit came out in one year? Damnnnnn

1. Hard Ticket to Hawaii
2. American Ninja 2
3. Predator
4. Street Trash
5. The Running Man
6. Raising Arizona
7. Robocop
8. Lethal Weapon
9. Near Dark
10. Hellraiser

11. Eddie Murphy Raw
12. Evil Dead 2
13. Planes, Trains and Automobiles
14. Beverly Hills Cop 2
15. A Nightmare on Elm Street 3
16. Slumber Party Massacre 2
17. Redneck Zombies
18. Surf Nazis Must Die
19. Bad Taste
20. Adventures in Babysitting

That's strange, both IMDb and Wikipedia say 1988. Do you maybe know why RYM says 1987?

Anyway, my revised list:

1. Kárhozat / Damnation (Béla Tarr)
2. Der Himmel über Berlin (Wim Wenders)
3. Full Metal Jacket (Stanley Kubrick)
4. Au Revoir les Enfants (Louis Malle)
5. Empire of the Sun (Steven Spielberg)
6. Hong Gao Liang / Red Sorghum (Yimou Zhang)
7. Raising Arizona (Joel & Ethan Coen)
8. RoboCop (Paul Verhoeven) 15
9. The Untouchables (Brian de Palma) 14
10. Wall Street (Oliver Stone) 10
11. Predator (John McTiernan) 5

Honestly, I'm not sure. It's never been contested on RYM though.
