agreed, the second golden age of cinema was the seventies, but movie trends don't exactly match decades. my argument would be that this period started in '67 with Bonnie and Clyde, when falling boxoffice meant studios were more willing to experiment, and ended in '82 with the failure of The Thing and Bladerunner, when corporate Hollywood stopped experimenting and became 'safe' again - i blame Lucas and Spielberg for this even though their blockbuster mentalities started as experimentation, that became the norm.
