To make this list a movie had to be made in 1987. Obviously many movies made in 1986 earned box office dollars in 1987. On the other side many movies made in 1987 made money in 1988 and later. This page will looks at over 200 movies made in 1987. The movies are listed in two massive tables that lets you rank the movies from Best to Worst in six different sortable columns of information.

ok so foreign films can be a bit odd date wise in terms of when they show up at the Academy Awards so I’ll post this here but you need to go to your 1985 list and update the count there:
Best Director
Nominee: Lasse Hallström – My Life as a Dog
Best Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium
Nominee: My Life as a Dog – Lasse Hallström, Reidar Jonsson, Brasse Brännström, and Per Berglund based on the novel Mitt liv som hund by Reidar Jönsson
sorry a bit sloppy with these Oscar nominations that were missing in that I didn’t state clearly which were nominees or which were winners in each comment. 🙁
