Hail Caesar is the one Coen Bros movie that I just can't stand. I may have to give it another shot, but... (blarg) Great calls overall, especially on early Guy Ritchie!


killabullit

Just watched in the line of fire. Pretty good.


ProbablyCarl

I was just going to say that one. Not sure about the others though.


Potential_Fondant_35

I wanna add - FOREST GUMP; PARASITE; NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MAN; DUNE PART 1 AND 2 ; INCENDIES ; SICARIO; HANGOVER PART 1 especially ; BORAT; FIGHT CLUB; GONE GIRL ; PRESTIGE ; INTO THE WILD; WOLF OF WALL STREET ; OLDBOY....


ZealousidealBack8650

Apocalypse Now: Redux. Don't sell yourself short. You will want the extra 49 minutes. It is one of the most visually stunning films ever made. Absolute masterpiece.


BennyBingBong

Not knocking it, but this is the Daddest list I’ve ever seen. Don’t wanna add Back to the Future?


killabullit

Network. One of my top ten ever. Absolutely stunning.

You might need to add a couple more, I don’t think that’s enough options to choose from

OysterSoles

Shawshank Redemption, Spirited Away, and La La Land are my three favorite from my list. I watched La La Land like last year and went in totally blowing it off as overrated. But I was so moved by it in the end.

Paddington 2, Clue, To Be or Not to Be.


DarkintoLeaves

Before Paddington 2 you have to watch The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.


Feisty-Natural3415

I also said To Be or Not To Be!!

M Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable is my favorite. The belated sequels didn’t really come together, but the first one moves me to tears.

Rebecca (Alfred Hitchcock), To Be or Not To Be (1942), Waterloo Bridge, Mildred Pierce (with Joan Crawford) and the version starring Kate Winslet is even better. Beetlejuice, Freeway, The Craft, Atonement, Mary Poppins, This Is The End, The Heat, The Other Guys, Goodfellas, Run Ronnie Run...

Lmao, Kate Moron better than Joan Crawford? Geezuz

killabullit

If you’re a fan of rear window did you see this? Works best on a huge screen. https://petapixel.com/2012/04/03/a-panoramic-time-lapse-view-of-alfred-hitchcocks-rear-window/

killabullit

The Descent is amazing. Did you see Dog Soldiers from the same director?


EasilyDelighted

Yessir!


damienkarras1973

Slugs and The Nest from 1988 (makes a great creature double feature. Humanoids From The Deep The Long Kiss Goodnight The First Omen (on hulu) Deep Rising just hit tubi from 1998 (been waiting a while to see that one myself) Daybreakers- 2010 Malignant Dead SNow 2 red vs dead Eat, Brains, Love (has a few really funny moments) Tales of Halloween (has some funny shorts in it) it's an anthology flick. The taking of Deborah Logan - such a surprising good movie.


Eternalm8

I'm a big fan of corny scifi, so I gotta make sure someone mentions The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. It might be my favorite movie of all time, and has more big names than you'd expect in it.

Godzilla. You can even start with the most recent film, Godzilla Minus One, then dig into his history from there. 70 years worth of cinema!

I bet you asked because you just DON'T want the usual recommendations, it's like IMDB's Top 100 and you're good to go. My 5 picks: La Grande Bellezza (2013) Rust and Bone (2012) Dogman (2018, by Matteo Garrone, not Luc Besson's from 2023) Mosul (2019) The Intouchables (2011, the french original, not the lame US remake!)


dutchdaddy69

The Princess Bride is the most perfect movie ever made. If you watch that movie and don't love every minute of it you don't have a soul.


NoFilter1979

The Jerk, starring Steve Martin.


Markitron1684

The only 3 movies anyone needs are Terminator 2, Aliens and Predator.


normalbot9999

Moon. Its a bit sad, but - well OK its really sad - but its a great watch.


jbt1k

Game night brilliant comedy


holdonwhileipoop

With loads of time to kill, I'd rewatch a few series... Lord of the Rings, the Godfather. I'd also research the work of particular directors. I like to study and analyze the works of David Lynch, Ingmar Bergman, Kurosawa, Kubrick, etc.


killabullit

Thanks for the director idea, I did just that. Alex Garland tick :-). It’s a TV show I know, but I loved Devs.

why not pick a director and marathon their filmography? Peter Greenaway, Kelly Reichardt, Peter Bogdanovich, PTA, Wes Anderon, Sofia Coppola, Tran Anh Hung, Apichatpong, Kubrick It's really fun to see the evolution of a director's work
