[Gatefan1976]

I would be here forever trying to decide on this

[hedwig]

I've seen all the films (to date) that I want to. Who knows what will come out in the future that I simply must see.

[The Urban Spaceman]

Difficult. But I think something along these lines:

1) The Shawshank Redemption
2) The Great Escape
3) The Abyss
4) Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind
5) Dances with Wolves

Though I might exchange either The Abyss or Dances for The Graduate. Difficult call...

5. Apollo 13
4. LotR trilogy (extended editions)
3. Star Wars OT
2. Star Trek: First Contact
1. The Godfather

[mi_guard]

If there was such a list, I would make sure not to ever ever watch any of these movies

[Lady Midnight]

"West Side Story"....For the talent.
"The Day the Earth Stood Still"...To learn compassion.
"Von Ryan's Express"...To understand sacrifice.
"Stalag 17"...To embrace honor when those around you have lost sight of the word.
"Brian's Song" (1971 version)...When you need a good cry.

And I am going to add a 6th one here for all of you that need it....
"The Great Escape" (the true telling)...when you need a real hero, when you think all the work you are putting into something is a waist of time, when you wonder if life is worth it, when you are about to give up, when you think you have no viable talent, when you think you are trapped...learn about the 50...who didn't give up and died so that you might be here to continue.
