  Heya - does anyone know of a site which will tell me the top 10 movies being watched in the cinemas for a given month in the 1980s? My Google-fu is letting me down on this one, only finding USA charts (which are usually several months ahead of the UK, ET being a famous example).

  I couldn't find historical monthly charts on there, unless I'm missing something?
  
  Edit: Oops, yes I did - but they only go back to 1997.

  There is "Den Of Geek" - not what you wanted, but you might find goodish!

  Hmm, let's try another approach - anyone know of any British publications which reviewed films being shown in cinemas back in the 1980s which are online (or might be online)?
  
  I've looked in The Times and Sunday Times archive, and they were VERY sniffy about cinema releases, so their coverage was rather incomplete.

  Just had an idea - which movies which got released during December in the 1980's did you look forward to?
