None of those are comedies, and I would put at least one comedy into the trio.
My vote would be Blazing Saddles.

The shaking "shooting hand" gag from Gene Wilder is a family staple.
I tried showing that movie to my Gen z little sister and she was mortified the whole time.
It truly was a different time.
Off the top of my head:
- Pulp Fiction (1994)
- 12 Angry Men (1957)
- The Departed (2006)
- The Fifth Element
- The Matrix
- The Room
I will not be taking any questions.
+1 for The Room!
Terminator 2
Lord of the rings trilogy
Pulp fiction
I have no single favourite movie - three very different movies occupy my #1 spot:
- The Fifth Element
- The Shawshank Redemption
- The Princess Bride
Notable runners-up include Terminator 2, Arrival, Aliens, Dune(s), and The Life of Brian.
- The Godfather III
- The Matrix Revelations
- Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith.
These are also my favorites(I'm retarded)
Oof, tough one. Probably:
- Reservoir Dogs
- 2001: A Space Odyssey
- The Matrix
-
Brazil 1985
-
The matrix 1999

Nausicaa valley of the wind 1984
Glad to see some Nausicaa appreciation! Such an awesome movie!
Yeah I saw warriors of the wind when I was very young and never knew the name of the movie but would go up to videos stores in the 90s and basically discibe the movie. Girl on a glider chases after giant bugs. No one knew what I was talking about. Then when Disney did the release with news dub in 2005. I saw a ad for it on TV at like 2am and freaked woke my parents up and everything.
It's too bad we had to get worse voice acting to get the whole plot. For anybody that would like to compare, Warriors of the Wind is available on archive.org
Trainspotting, Mary Poppins, and Eraserhead.
I don't know why but it's so funny to me seeing Mary Poppins next to those other two movies lol
I got a weakness for Dick Van Dyke Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
The shawshank redemption, 12 angry men and apocalypse now.
I definitely recommend The Truman Show.
Terminator 2, Home Alone, The Matrix
- Interstellar
- The Dark Knight
- Avengers: Endgame
Ask me any other day and my answer will be different, just highlighting a few GOATs this tread is neglecting.
1: Raging Bull
2: Citizen Kane
3: Dr. Strangelove
Army of Darkness Big trouble in Little China Rambo First Blood
I don't know, but one of them is definitely Ikiru.
Me too
High and Low The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly True Lies
- The Raid 1/2
- Everything Everywhere All at Once
- Whiplash
Seven Samurai, Blade Runner 2049, Chungking Express
- Everything Everywhere All at Once
- Babylon
- The Grand Budapest Hotel
New hope. Empire strikes back. Return of the Jedi. Honestly I consider the original 3 Star Wars movie as one movie in 3 parts.
