Well an easy one : You should all watch "La Jetée" from Chris Marker. It's the best sci-fi movie ever and with only one single moving image :p

I watched it recently and I am really impressed that movie was filmed in 1962. It is short and worth to see, people.

I was gonna recommend Life is Beautiful, but it has been already XD While I think of something else I'll recommend 1, 2, 3, 4 and5 to the russians: if you haven't watched them already, you really should. (Couldnt' decide on one :P)
EDIT: dang, came back to recommend Equilibrium, but it was already recommended. My search goes on. ><
EDIT2: and Children of Men too... Q_Q

That movie is a true emotional rollercoaster. The beautiful and sweet way their romance unfolds, and then..one of the most heartbreaking movies ever made. Are those others all Russian-language?

Little Big Man http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065988/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_62 It is in my top 5 and the most obscure in there so that is why I picked that one from my list of greats. It is an amazing tale and still stands good today despite its age.

Oldboy from 2003 is a very nice movie.

Since the majority of the classics are named alrdy i will just go with some underrated comedy Stay Tuned
groundhog day was alrdy mentioned but bill murray made another great classic
Scrooged
if u liked Kung Fu Hustle kind of humor than i would suggest Kung Pow: Enter the fist

Stand By Me (1986)
Also, The Breakfast Club. People like to bash it, but it's still one of my favorite movies.

Anime is not for everybody, and I don't think that movie will be the better to introduce someone. I like Satoshi Kon but his movies are... specials, you know :P Tokyo Godfathers is more "normal" and can appeal to more people

I love movies that are, in a way or another, tributes to the cinema itself, so if I'd need to choose something more "occidental" I'd recommend Cinema Paradisso insetad.

Alongside Miyazaki he is one of the best anime directors.
i kind of agree, not everyone one will enjoy it, his movies always have a portrait of an otaku, usually represented in the worst kind of way
Millenium Actress on the other hand shows a person that as fallen deeply in love with an actress, but it's a heartwarming movie with a relatable character
Millennium Princess is probably one of his most accessible movies.

I am too lazy to go through the whole topic, but just dropping my 2 cents:

Oh damn there are so many very nice movies out there in the world.
I really enjoyed watching "Daddy´s Little Girl" or the "Rambo"-Movies.
But as I need to mention one movie I would say "Fast and Furios 7". Maybe not the best movie in the world but..yeah..go and watch the "Fast and Furious"-movies and then watch the 7th part. The background of the ending is just so fucking impressive. So pls go and watch it^^
PS: Or when u are from Germany then u need to watch "Das Boot" it´s just a must-watch :D

+1 Run Lola Run is so good, I can still remember the very first time I saw that movie as a teenager and became obsessed with it for a brief period haha

This is England is really good. Along the same lines is Quadrophenia (probably most famous due to The Who)

Fight Club was really awesome. Star Wars for me is most epic space movie

Easy. Name 1, pick 1 and watch it. Can be a classic, and indie movie, a short film or your favorite movie.
I really think that everyone should watch Fight Club. A life-changing film.
Now its YOUR turn.
