I just don'y appreciate them like I should. I feel weird knowing I haven't seen 90% of the best out there.
Give me 10 must see movies. I promise I haven't seen most

You've seen Star Wars right? Holy Grail?

I'll give you a good diverse list for you to watch:
1) The Godfather Parts I and II
2) Star Wars
3) Almost Famous
4) Lawrence of Arabia
5) Casablanca
6) Pan's Labyrinth
7) Spirited Away
8) City Lights
9) Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail
10) One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
11) Die Hard
These are films judging from what you've said in previous posts that I don't think you would have seen, and I've tried to get every genre I can on there. All these are good examples on what you can expect from a certain genre. This is something most film nerds do is attach to some genres more than others. I think this is a good start, but I wouldn't say these are the 11 best films of all time or my top 11 films of all time. Hope you enjoy these and some other suggestions in this thread.

I'd pull up that 200 Movies That Don't Suck thread, start with the first, and work your way down.
