Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Some others on my list of classics I didn't see mentioned...

Jeremiah Johnson
Breaking Away
Lawrence of Arabia
The Cheyenne Social Club
The Magnificent Seven
The Great Escape
 
How about every season of South Park? Those are classics :D
 
The Hunted
Bourne series
Zeitgeist series
Predators (minus the AVP)
Remember the Titans
Johnny Q
Man on fire
 
In no particular order:
The 13th Warrior (The only Antonio Banderas movie I ever liked)
Conan the Barbarian (The first one. It carried more of the feel of the books.)
King Arthur (A grittier version of the Arthurian legend. Get the director's cut.)
The Edge
The Shawshank Redemption
Blazing Saddles
Young Frankenstein
From Paris with Love (good action and a twisting plot)
To Have and Have Not
Casablanca
Shrek
Shrek 2
The Outlaw Jose Wales
Pale Rider
The Sting
 
Sharpe's Complete Collection starring Sean Bean - expensive but very worthy.

Depends, I appreciate a good zombie movie, but some are hard to watch. Others, like the one in Kentucky where the nuclear rain makes every dead thing come back to life (including the chopped in half dogs), are okay in a corny kind of way.

Sci Fi channel zombie flicks though, I could never get passed the whole "brains" chanting.
 
Some good Comedies are The Princess Bride, Strange Brew, What about Bob?, Stripes, The Great Outdoors, Uncle Buck, Galaxy Quest, Heartbreak Kid, Hots shots and some other random ones... The Prestige, Body of Lies, Apocalypto, Miracle, Bourne Trilogy, Lord of the Rings +1 To Jeremiah Johnson, Blues Brothers, Caddyshack, so many but those are some of my favorites
 
Mongol: The Rise of Genghis Khan


Literally off the beaten path: shot in Mongolia, they had to build roads to get into some of the locations. Beautiful film. There is a sequel which I haven't seen.
