Movies To Watch Before You Die(taking votes)

[foxycritter]

This list is going to be different from simply "movies I like", these movies I believe are extremely memorable and have a place on a list like this because of their impact on culture and/or cinema as a whole.

Forrest Gump, The Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, The Princess Bride, The Godfather part I and II, Fight Club, Alien, The Shining, Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan, The Big Lebowski, 2001: A Space Oddyssey, In Bruges, Pretty Woman, Casablanca, The Outsiders, Taxi Driver, Moonrise Kingdom, Memento, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Star Wars (Original Trilogy), It's a Wonderful Life, Citizen Kane, The Jazz Singer, The Wizard of Oz, Fantasia, Gone With the Wind, Rebel Without a Cause, Some Like it Hot, Psycho, Airplane!, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Blade Runner, E.T., Toy Story, Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2, Jurassic Park, Moonlight, 12 Years a Slave, Dallas Buyers Club, Cast Away, The Truman Show, Dead Poets Society

WHEW that's quite a list! I truly believe all of these films were extremely influential in a multitude of ways; storytelling, technological advances, changing public perception/bringing things to light, giving voices to the voiceless, and just making their mark on culture.
