Many of my favorite films are silent. I haven't seen a lot of the movies that make people say, "What! How can you call yourself a film major if you haven't seen that movie?!" even though I just graduated with a degree in film. Also, I wasn't that impressed by The Godfather Part II and haven't seen Parts I or III.
Want a list?
The General, Nosferatu, Sunrise, The Golem, The Maltese Falcon, Dog Star Man, Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, all those Pixar movies, Waking Life, Almost Famous, Some Like it Hot, The Hulk, American Splendor, the first Star Wars movies I guess, Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, Dog Town and Z-Boys, X-Men 2, Citizen Kane, It Happened One Night, Coffee and Cigarettes, Hellboy, Singin' in the Rain, 28 Days Later . . .
and other assorted fluff, especially if it's in black and white, is based on a comic book or came from a director who got started making avant-gardy indie films in the '90s. | | Television | I don't have a television.

I also liked Boy Meets World before it sucked.
