I got to thinking about all the movies I watched down range working 7-12's fixing blackhawks, too tired to do anything except eat then get showered and hit the rack after your shift. We'd trade movies from external computer drives......don't think "we were soldiers" w/ Mel Gibson was mentioned, and Braveheart for that matter, "The Patriot", Apocalypto, "Edge of Darkness" & Hacksaw Ridge , Duvall and Costner in "Open Range" 2003 is a really good western too. Tom Cruise Sci-Fi "Oblivion", "Edge of Tomorrow" and the re-booted Star Trek's come to mind.
 
The current offering from China ..... 'Cause I'm an extra in it!!!!
Every morning I wake up and pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming
 
The mention of Little Miss Sunshine ,brings to mind , a ride buddy and myself are riding up to do Cabot Trail in Cape Breton , stop for lunch at roadside “fair trade, organic “ diner , waiting on our orders and this very familiar fellow and nice looking lady walk in and order , I say hi and they respond , I’m thinking I recognize them but can’t place ‘em , then bam , it’s Alan Arkin ! ..... not who you expect in such a place , chatted for a minute and left them alone , later my buddy googled Arkin and surprise he got a place in Cape Breton and lives there several months every year , who knew .... nice guy , great actor !
 
Shane "shane, come back shane!"
Lawrence o Araby
Midsummer Nights Dream 1930s version
Battle of Britain 1960ish version
To Have and Have Not
Help
Hard Days Night
Wizard o Oz
 
Bogart movies are pretty good I was going to list "The Maltese Falcon" earlier but it slipped my mind.
 
Strange, ..... only one person has mentioned Star Wars, and no one Harry Potter. Surely, these are among the top money makers of all time, and were made possible only with challenging special effects. I am not nominating either one .... just pointing out the anamolie.

Slick
 
I'm a black-and-white movie guy.

"Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream Home" (Cary Grant & Myrna Loy) is another great one...
