Eh what?
you say alot of movies were shit at that point?!? How dare you, sir, how very dare you! :(
Unless you're talking about Bond movies specifically, then yeah, the 1970s Bonds generally weren't that hot.
Yeah- the Bond movies from the latter 70's for certain. I'm also looking at Lucas' THX1138, and a lot of movies from then fledging directors that were just crap. Sure there was good stuff, but it seemed a time when plot started going out the window in favor of big aspolsions and OMG ANOTHER CAR CHASE!! Westerns were particularly terrible with several noticeable exceptions - same for the horror/suspense genre (can't remember when Hitchcock checked out...).
I guess I mean it in the same way that I would say, "80's music was shit" - there was The Cure and such, but the good bands were greatly overshadowed by the Go-Go's and Poison. There are nuggets of gold there, but lots of crap to dig through to find them.
Or maybe it's just always that way. :p

I think saying 60's music was shit might be a closer analogy to saying 70's movies were shit than saying 80's music was shit would be.
