    Literally have not seen half the movies on the list.

    My list would have movies like Casablanca, The Quiet Man, The Thin Man and Slapshot. And lately the Marvel Universe movies.

    Been meaning to watch Nobody's Fool for quite some time.

    Chris,

    I think you'll like "Nobody's Fool." The Richard Russo novel it's based on is also very good.

    I've seen all of the films you listed above with the exception of Slapshot. I have seen very few, if any, of the Marvel Universe films.

    My list is dated. I need to catch up.

    Cool Hand Luke
    Devil's Brigade
    Midway (the original)
    In Harm's Way
    Great Escape
    Patton
    The Longest Day
    To Catch a Thief
    All the Bourne movies except the last one - it was horrible...

    A bit a theme in the middle there...

    Vince,

    Good choices. I have only seen the first Bourne film and so need to catch up. I've never seen Devil's Brigade but have heard it is good.
