(My) Definitive Movie List

Forum index > Blogs 1 2 Next All

Hey guys,

So I posted this in the top movies thread, but it's something I really enjoy sharing with people so I'd like to get some feedback on it.

This is a list I've been working on for quite some time now, I'm adding movies ALL the time. Cinema has been a big part of my life, I basically see every mainstream movie that comes out and plenty of other foreign/indie/generally not well known stuff.

Originally the plan was to just make the list MUST SEE movies, with some sort of rating system, but that was just impossible (especially for someone as OCD as me). So this is just a plain list of movies that are, in my personal opinion, ones that you should watch.

I'd love to hear your opinions on this list. What am I missing? What doesn't belong? What obscure movies are you happy to see?

+ Show Spoiler [The List!] +


Hopefully you'll find some real gems you haven't seen before thanks to this list!

edit: Yes, I know, I'm completely lacking Kurosawa. I have some serious catching up to do in that department.

I noticed you have Full Metal Jacket and Platoon but no Hamburger Hill?

Good list.

EDIT: Just because I am a nerd i would suggest watching Godzilla : King of The Monsters. Nerdy choice,but it is an amazing film.

Nice list! Most of my top movies are on there, but i think you should definitely add "V for Vendetta" and "The Lion King".

A very very good brazillian movie called "Tropa de Elite" should definitely be watched by a movie buff, especially if you enjoyed city of god. You'll probably only be able to find it through torrents.

Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005)

This is such a good movie. It's so relevant and it captures the spirit of what good film making is so well.

I think Office Space should definitely be up there.

EDIT: I second The Rock, and also think National Treasure should be up there (not too sure about the sequel though).

how can you have Houl's Flying Castle whcih was a piece of shit and had garbage VA (Kumira Takuya LOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLL wtf stop using garbage RLactors for this shit 99% of them fucking blow and cant act even in their dramas) but not have Grave of the Fireflies or Porco Rosso, which are superior Gibli films

I mean Porco Rosso is debatable but Grave of the Fireflies definitely is not.
