List of oscar eligible movies pre-1997

I've been able to find lists of eligible movies from 1997-last year. Anyone know of lists before that?

Wouldn't that be pretty much every movie released each year?

No, it only provides the 5 nominees for best picture, 5 best actor, 5 best actress, etc.

What I am looking for is the list of 300-400 movies that were eligible for consideration each year.

Every movie released in the calendar year is eligible. Yes, Catwoman was eligible for an Oscar.

I think any movie that is over 40 minutes long is eligible.

Uh, I guess you could just go to IMDb and get a list of every movie ever and the year it came out.

Hey guys I was hoping for a list of every movie ever made in China, set in China, or featuring a Chinese actor (all of China; including Japan and Korea). Thanks!

Here's a really good site that might be able to help you. It's been called earth's biggest movie database. Now go and do your own work.

Wow, you guys are so witty.

IMDB does not have the lists I am looking for.

Maybe I should change my question to a list of DVD talk members who aren't jerks about it and actually read and understand a question before they reply with snarky comments.

Calm down. You're not looking for any specific list - thousads, literally thousands, of films are eligible every year. It's not everyone else's fault if you can't specify exactly what you're looking for.

Ahhh, that's not true. Only 250-400 movies each year are eligible. For instance, the link above lists 244 movies for 2000, whereas if I search in imdb for 2000, I get 24344. Not every movie released each year is eligible.

Yes, Palaver, that is exactly what I'm looking for. Unfortunately, that list only goes back to 2000. I've been able to find 1997-1999 in various other places.

"Guys, do my work for me!"
"You're asking us to list a minimum of 300-400 movies for each year, from the early 1900s on? Get bent."
"OMG you guys are such smartasses I was just asking 4 some help!"

Calm down. I'm not asking you to compile the list. I'm just asking if anyone has a list handy, like Palaver.

I've already done plenty of searching and have lists from 1997-2005. I was just asking if anyone else has any other lists.

Why are you getting so worked up about me asking if you have any useful links?

Because you got all worked up over people telling you to do your own work...so I kind of thought "getting worked up" was the theme for this thread. Boy, do I feel awkward.
