    @Bovidae I've never even heard of 12 Angry Men

    I watched the 1997 remake. A bit of a slow burn if I recall but very well acted and written. It all takes place in one room (the jury room)

    Back to the future and Shawshank are two movies I would never change the channel for.

    Die hard 1 and 2, revenge of the nerds, the Martian, Taken, Bourne Identity probably in thst list too.

    @canefan the Tony Danza one?

    I saw that too. Not bad, but not memorable either.

    Die Hard has barely aged. Still a bolted on classic. I like them all, Bruce Willis is a boss

    Yeah. Jack Lemmon, George C Scott too. It felt like a play, I wonder if it was adapted? I think I switched onto it one day, a decent watch but I wouldn't do it again

    Princess Bride, probably all time fave
    Always watch Shawshank when I am scanning channels and it is on, regardless of where in movie it is
    Point Break also a top 5 contender (not to be confused with a movie made recently with same name) probably seen this more than nay other movie too
    Happy GIlmore, love it!

    Depending on mood, I reckon I could swap out another dozen or so movies into/out of my top 10.

    Is that the one with Andre the Giant in it? Maybe I have seen it but it doesn't register as any good? (Either that or I have seem a clip of him in it so many times that makes me think I've seen it)

    He’s a genius, does his best not to look like one though

    I agree, but I think the Dean is a genius character too. Apparently Downhill is a disappointment though.

    I have never watched Forrest Gump from start to finish. I didn't hate it when I first tried to watch it but I was at that point where movies like Pulp Fiction and Shawshank were changing my idea of what an outstanding movie was. The schmaltz in Gump was a bit too much. But it's not a bad movie. You can throw Benjamin Button on the list of overblown crap fests that I started watching and never finished though.
