    Hmmm..... it would be:

    LoTRs
    Fight Club
    The Godfather Part 1
    Braveheart
    The Ten Commandmants
    Ben-Hur
    Gladiator

    This are all Good. Bad and Ugly, I have to think sometime later.

    The Great Escape
    -----------------
    Great film with some awesome moments. Steve McQueen. I highly recommend you see it, even if just for the opening soundtrack.


    Some others.

    The Rock - damn good movie, with Sean Connery.
    Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
    Star Wars (original 3, especially The Empire Strikes Back)

    Aw heck. Too many to list em all.

    Uh... okay, here we go...

    Saving Private Ryan
    Gladiator
    The Thin Red Line
    Apocalypse Now (both versions; the redux is a "better" movie, but the origional has a stronger effect on my mental state.)
    The Big Lebowski
    Bullitt
    The Wild Bunch
    Alien (the first one)
    Blade Runner (When I am in the right mood- and the Director's cut, only. The Ford voiceovers are horrible.)
    Death Hunt
    Dead Alive
    Easy Rider
    Up In Smoke
    Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas
    the Fistful of Dollars series
    Once Upon a Time in the West
    Once Upon a Time in Mexico
    The Wild Bunch
    Ravenous
    The Thing (John Carpenter's best movie- if you watch it, watch it in black and white; visually, it works much better)
    The Godfather part II
    Hard Times
    High Plains Drifter
    Kelly's Heroes

    And, lastly, my favorite movie of all time,
    Zorba the Greek!
    I always feel great after I see that movie.

    Be intent on loyalty
    While others aspire to perform meritorious services
    Concentrate on purity of intent
    While those around you are beset by egoism

    Here's my list in no particular order,

    Jarhead
    The Rock
    Platoon
    Blackhawk Down
    Kingdom of Heaven
    Gladiator
    Fight Club
    Under Seige I
    Judge Dredd
    Demolition Man
    Equilibrium
    Missing in Action I
    Rocky I, II, III, and IV
    All the James Bond films
    Khartoum

    and finally Notting Hill, which is extremely out of place in this list, but is listed only because I've always believed I would meet the perfect woman in a bookstore.
