Dr. Strangelove is a timeless classic that will always be relevant and it's a masterpiece.
12 Angry Men. It's been decades since it came out and it still holds up.

I will add this for Trooper: Any movie with John Wayne in it (even the one where he plays Mongol Genghis Khan).
Moonlight-a true game changer
You must be joking.
"The Avengers"???? Really????
Not one Western in the list? Almost anything by Ford or Hawks. Skip almost anything after the cavalry trilogy ("Sergeant Rutledge" is the exception), ditto "El Dorado". "The Comancheros" is fun. Of course, "the Magnificent Seven", "The Bravados" (very nice twist at the end, not to mention a luscious young Joan Collins), "Arrowhead" (Chuck Heston as an Indian-hating scout)
Only "Private Ryan" in war movies? Where's "The Longest Day", "Tora", "Guns Of Navarone"
I could go on.
Blazing Saddles just showed up on NetFlix - I watched it for the first time in its entirety last night. Mel Brooks correctly mocked male homosexuals mercilessly - like the bunch of Kansas City faggots they are.
Since he couldn't write a proper ending he had the western characters crash a musical dance scene - again, male homosexuals being as prissy and as full of flaming faggotry as they are in real life. Well done, Mr. Brooks.
It is a great movie that could not be made today.
The Edge of Seventeen (2016) was good.
Bridge of Spies
Trying to think of recent ones.
Titus, Moonlight was boring as hell.
The main character was so passive, it was painfully slow to watch. Except for scene when he is smacking that douchbag with a chair--that was good.
I liked the drug dealer and his girlfriend, but sort of sad the only decent characters in the movie were the drug dealer and his girlfriend and his friend who betrays but then befriends him again.
Almost nothing before the 90s and nothing in black and white.
How do you list movies everyone must watch before they die without "Birth Of A Nation"?
Or "Bugs Bunny Nips The Nips".
I'm proud to say I've never watched most of those.
Don't plan to.
I do like Forrest Gump.
Shawshank redemption - depressing as hell but a great ending.
Get busy living or get busy dying.
American Beauty? I had the misfortune of seeing that one. Wish I could un-see it.
My standard list
Get Smart (2008)
Notting Hill
The Proposal
Two Weeks Notice
You've Got Mail
Laws of Attraction
Music and Lyrics
"In Harm's Way" - Otto Preminger war film with John Wayne & Kirk Douglas
"Shindler's List" is tough to watch at times due to the brutality, but a great film
"Godfather" because, hey, it's "Godfather"
Agree about "Blazing Saddles" a great film that's too non-PC to be made again
Another non-PC entry: "Animal House"
I can't think of a single movie that everyone should watch. The fun movies are fun if you like them. The "good for you" movies are medicine you don't need.
My dad particularly likes a movie called "The Gods are Crazy". I think that if there is a movie everyone should watch, that's the movie. Watch that one.
Binge watch all the seasons of Hogan's Heroes.
Synova- "The Gods Must Be Crazy"? Follows the bushman on his quest to find the end of the earth to throw away the evil thing the Gods had sent his tribe.
That was one of our family regular movies when all the cousins would come to visit when we were little. My mom watched it in a sociology class in the early 80s, which is how our family found it.
It is an excellent film.
I can't believe nobody said 'The Mask'!! Don't we all wear masks, MR. IPKISS?
Moonlight
Brokeback Mountain
Milk
Philadelphia Story
Boys Don't Cry
Dallas Buyer's Club
These are the movies we're told that should care the most about seeing. Doesn't matter who played in them.
Amirite, Titus?
I've seen most of the list. I might have missed it, but I would add Some Like It Hot. I'm also fond of It Happened One Night.
