The Films I've Never Seen...

I'm still working my way through the MCU collection, but that doesn't mean I'm not also watching other things too, and I've recently been trying to get around to watching all those films that 'everyone' has seen and I haven't. So, yesterday, I watched Die Hard. Yep, that's right, a 1988 classic and here I am in 2018 seeing it for the first time. To be honest, that kind of action thing is not really my style. I've seen the Lethal Weapon films, and they were okay, but I like the TV series a lot better. I'm more for character development, less for the violence and cursing, I guess, but I was just curious about Die Hard.
Honestly? It was fine. I didn't hate it. I head the F-bomb more times than I ever needed to in quick succession, but I guess if you were in that guy's predicament, you'd swear a lot, am I right? Um, it was all kinda nasty with the shootings and the blood and all, but at least now I understand the jokes, parodies, etc. that I've seen in other films and TV series over the years. I have to say, I wouldn't watch it again.
So, now I've done the Indiana Jones trilogy + the newer addition, The Magnificent Seven, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Die Hard, The Chronicles of Narnia films, and more. I think I might be reaching a point where I've seen all those classics (and others besides) that I'm supposed to see... or at least the ones I have any interest in at all!
If you have any thoughts on films you think everyone should watch, let me know. I may have seen them, I may have no wish to see them, but recs are always welcome for consideration :)
