Actually this list is extremely solid, though I love most all the Tarantino movies.
It's also missing American History X. I think that, LA Confidential, American Beauty, Pulp Fiction, Usual Suspects, are my top 5.
If you like action, The Terminator and Aliens.

Thanks! Awesome list, i'd say i seen a little over half the movies you posted. American Beauty is great!! I've been meaning to watch L.A. Confidential.. The Silence of the lambs and Whiplash for a while now i think i'm gonna go with silence of the lambs right now thanks again!

Tarantino movies are such classics that I felt it was almost redundant to include them. American History X is a good call.

I saw the new Terminator on IMAX today and it was awesome. I posted about it in the media forum, and if you look at the imdb message boards for the movie you will see me, but if you liked the first two, you will like it.

I can't watch the new one yet because I live in China and it might not get released here. Am planning on flying to Hong Kong soon to watch it actually, until then I'm trying to avoid all spoilers and trailers
