I agree with you 100%, we don’t want to make the same mistakes twice.

I’ll throw my hat in the ring and give my list in no particular order:

Seven Samurai

Borat

Close Encounters of the Third Kind

War of the Worlds (2005)

The Godfather

I was 8 years old when I first saw the film and it scared me so much it left in me a permanent fear of aliens and once I got older I grew to love the film and aliens in general.

Tbh the battle on the hill is enough to make it a great film for me because it involves the ultimate dilemma: which child do you save?

It’s a choice no parent should ever have to make and the entire scene in general shows how hopeless it was against the Tripods.

Close Encounters is amazing and iirc some of the plot points were taken from reality.

I always get hate for this but Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

For years I heard it be revered as the best comedy film of all time, it was hyped up so much, then I finally saw it… And didn’t even laugh once.

That taught me that hype is a powerful thing (look at Cyberpunk for instance), because whatever our mind comes up with, will never live up to the actual final product.
