There’s loads out there, popular films everyone has watched but for some reason they just don’t interest you.. I’ll start..

Blade (any of them)
Highlander
 


ET....yes, really (but probably because I simply slept through it)
Lord of the Rings
Rocky 1,2,3,4....
Star Wars
Did you enjoy Rocky 5? I thought it was the worst of the lot - surprised you started with that one.

My Mrs has never seen The Sixth Sense, but knows the ending.

Haven't seen #5 either...just wasn't sure how many there had been 🤔

Must admit, there are not that many 70's or 80's films I would go out of my way to watch. Just something about the cinematography and/or the editing or, maybe, just the era. It's just a 'me' thing and I am sure there were many excellent films made during those two decades but not many stick in these old memory banks.
 

Working with a 20 year old that hasnt seen 246 of the IMDB top 250.

Kids today!
Thanks for this - just had a quick trawl through the list and it's interesting to see how few films from the 70's/80's make it into, certainly, the Top 50.

Aside from The Godfather, Apocalypse Now, One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest, Back to the Future....all classics of their own genre - there seems to have been a dearth of watchable or memorable movies. Perhaps this was because of the lack of funding as the halcyon days of the cinema dipped considerably for a couple of decades and with the advent of home videos the profitability of big budget films was not the same for the studios. I don't know but it seems that things didn't start picking up again until the development of CGI and surround sound which gave cinema goers a whole new perspective and experience,?
