Haven't seen most of those made after 2000. Not into comic movies, or any of that crap. I prefer old-time movies, even though I'm from the 70's. 

Last week I finally got around to watching Stanley Kubrik's famous film - A Clockwork Orange .... A rapist/bully/thief goes to prison and gets "special medical treatment" to convert him to good. He gets out, gets beat up, and tries to kill himself... the end.  If you've never seen it, DON'T.  What a piece of crap. How is that considered a famous cult classic?  Guess it had shock value in the 70's, but today it's garbage.  

If I had to pick an old timey movie to recommend - Das Boot.  I recommended it to my nephew recently because he's into old timey movies as well. Came back raving about it. It's a true work of art.

Not me, I didn't count any that I haven't seen start to finish, all 45 on my list I have seen in their entirety.  Also, I've seen most of the movies 3X times at a minimum.

I said 2 or 3 partial. Only said that because I really do not remember if I sat down and actually watched Apocalypse Now from beginning to end. Groundhog Day and possibly Jaws are the other two. I mean Jaws and apocalypse are 40+ years old. I don’t remember if I took a this morning or not.

Kubrik is my favorite director, and I like A Clockwork Orange, but you aren't wrong. I think some of my appreciation comes from watching it as a teenager with my punk-rock loving buddies and feeling like it was verboten. There are a lot of films that were cutting edge or shocking in their day but don't hold up, especially from the 70s.

Das Boot is amazing. Good call. You say "old timey" but it's not THAT old (unless you're under 40). I like some more modern movies with an "old" feel; newer noir pictures like LA Confidential or The Lives of Others. Holy hell both of them are 20+ years old and when did I become my godam grandfather?

The Green Mile.  5/5 for me.  Great story, great acting, great everything.  Dang, I wish I could watch it for the 1st time again.

I've always heard it was fantastic. Should probably check it out.

39. I included Citizen Cain even though I fell asleep all three times I tried. The last time, I woke up just in time to catch the meaning behind "Rosebud" I won't be making a 4th attempt unless I have a film professor sitting next to me explaining why this technique or that one was revolutionary for its time because the movie, on its own merits, is about the most boring movie I've ever attempted. And I don't forsee taking that class.

I like Kubrik too, but Clockwork came off as strange, for the sake of being strange. After watching it I read some reviews and there's people who still rave about it talking about the deep messages about society and whatnot.  I wonder - if they watched it for the first time today, didn't know it was by Kubrik, and didn't know it was a "cult classic", would they really be raving? I highly doubt it.  It's like the Mona Lona painting - if ya didn't know it was considered a masterpiece or who painted it, would you really consider it great art... or would it just be another old boring painting?  At least I crossed Clockwork off the list in my quest to see every "classic."

The closing scene reveals "Rosebud."  It was an odd movie. The plot seemed a bit convoluted, but Orson Welles was really good. 

Welle's was truly a good performer, back in an era where everyone just played over-the-top corny, he actually acted.  Don't see a lot of that in old black and whites. One of his best performances - Touch of Evil.
