FYI, we haven't named a Best Picture winner, and I'm racking my brain for the next round trying to figure out what it was.

Pink Floyd's The Wall (I think I lied about my age to get in to this when I was a senior in high school... or, more precisely, the summer before I was a Senior in High School... Wait... that makes it 1983... Damn... too late...)

Gremlins only came to mind for me because the PG-13 rating turns 33 this year, and I know that Gremlins was one of the movies that precipitated the rating's creation.
Fun fact, since we've been talking about him during this game: Steven Spielberg was the person who suggested to the MPAA that they create a rating between PG and R.
My last guess is The Terminator.
