Damn, I'm feeling really unusually in touch with my gender here. I count only 4.5 good movies on the top list (Pride & Prejudice, Tangled, Brokeback Mountain, Beauty and the Beast; Sound of Music gets a .5 because I don't care for it but acknowledge it's a classic).
Das Boot, Rashomon, The Bridge on the River Kwai, The Thing, M, Seven Samurai, and Lawrence of Arabia on the other hand, are all indisputable classics, while Blade Runner 2049 is excellent modern cinema.
Funny, I’m feeling less in touch with mine. I’ve seen maybe two on the bottom list (only one fully), enjoyed one, and haven’t even heard of half of them. Although there are three that I would like to see at some point
Meanwhile on the top list, I’ve seen most of them, and enjoyed most of the ones I’ve seen. But maybe that’s because the ones on the top list were released within my lifetime.
