This is a challenging question. You would want to cover most genres and try to cover the classics but not too much. I'll try.
1) a classic hollywood epic like Lawrence of Arabia
2) an action movie like Die Hard
3) a sci fi movie like 2001 or Terminator 2
4) a movie about making or enjoying movies like The Player or Cinema Paradiso
5) a slapstick movie like modern times
6) a documentary movie like Hoop Dreams
7) a romantic comedy like Breakfast at Tiffany's or better off dead.
8) a western like The Good the Bad and the Ugly or The Searchers
9) a biopic like The Doors
10) a war movie like Saving Private Ryan or Bridge over the River Kwai
Alright fuckers come at me.

>lumping completely different movies into the same category
>variety above all
There's much more, but those two points are damning.
>>71173351

>>71173373

>>71173412
>>lumping completely different movies into the same category
are you memeing that Terminator 2 isn't Sci Fi or that The Player isn't a movie about making movies?

It's not something I watch 100 times but it is a must-see. Partly because it was so ahead of it's time. Science Fiction was the stuff of late night drive in movies before 2001 made it legit.
Also I think it might not be as impressive to us in 2016 because it was copied by so many others but I think it stands up as a must see.
Feel free to name another must see Sci-fi...
>>71173223
thats an impossible question to do justice to with that little info
>>71173540
I agree its worth a watch and it was ahead of its time but it didn't do anything for me
>>71173560
This desu. If they watch blade runner and aren't impressed, you know they will never truly appreciate film.

>I agree its worth a watch and it was ahead of its time but it didn't do anything for me
I would be open to swapping out Blade Runner, Total Recall or THX1138. Those are IMO much more enjoyable movies. Or we could go hipster and put in Metropolis.
Maybe substitute one of the points for a Propaganda Movie such as Triumph of the Will, Battleship Potemkin, Birth of a Nation, Munich or Argo.

>>71173987
not nearly as flawed as bladerunner
for example, bladerunner had nothing driving it except a series of set pieces, and a few pages from a short story
the particular movies I posted are almost perfect

About me? Sorry, I'm a ghost.

the style is part of the substance lad, and the subtext and symbolism compacted so heavily into such a simple story (without being pretentious) IS the brilliance.
there are so many references and ideas, and so few of them are actively highlighted for the audience. its supposed to be a challenge.
i will grant that its flawed, but not really for the reasons that you mentioned.
