^^ Accidental double post.

Ummm...Fight Club, Pulp Fiction, Star Wars 4-6, Lawrence of Arabia, Taxi Driver, Terminator 1 and 2, The Big Lebowski, Fargo, Forrest Gump, The Graduate, The Tresure of Sierra Madre (I think it was made in the 40s, but whatever), The Italian Job from the 1960s, and Empire of the Sun.

I also like Nosferatu from the 1920s.

Okay, my list continued cause I totally skipped a lot, and I'm gonna mention some films that were pre-50s because...well, they deserve to be mentioned:

Clerks, Goodfellas, A Clockwork Orange, Schlinder's List, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Life Boat, Rear Window, The 400 Blows, The Bicycle Thief, Dr. Strangelove, Blade Runner, M, Raging Bull, Beetlejuice, The Shining, Dog Day Afternoon, The Shawshank Redemption and pretty much all the 2D animated films that Disney put out.

I know I'm forgetting some more, which is annoying. :\

And I forget The deer hunter, Apocalypse now, Platoon, Midnight express and much more.
