And still more great films emerge despite the length of the lengthening list already posted.

I never rated Munchausen as terrible, quite the reverse. (except financially!)
But then I loved Time Bandits too, and that's not to everyone's taste.

Fairly scattered,
But apart from the Kubrik, as with many other postings here, your tastes are frighteningly young
to this old-timer.

To scatter your tastes more you may have to go back in time, to the great B/W era,
or perhaps to some more classic science fiction?

Now you ARE making me feel old, sitting here at controls of this new-fangled Babbage engine.

See my earlier post for some titles to check on the IMDB, but it does depend on taste.

Casablanca, for drama and romance.
Some Like it Hot, for comedy.

You've opened the door a crack with Jurassic Park and Galaxy Quest!

Can't I even tempt you with a Kubrick? 2001, a Space Odyssey.
Not a space hero shoot 'em up. And if The Shining is on your list...
