Bladerunner
Unforgiven
There Will Be Blood
The Shining (yeah, read the book, think the movie's better.)
The Empire Strikes Back
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Alien

Sure there are many others, but these spring immediately to mind.
 
Ladyhawke.... one of those movies I knew all about but never actually had seen until fairly recently. Fun movie.

If you like that, check out a Filk Music artist named Julia Ecklar. She has a song called "Ladyhawke" based on the movie, sung from the perspective of Mouse.

I loved Bottle Shock!
 
Some day you've really got to get out to our part of the country, good sir!

I'd really like to do that.

I loved Bottle Shock!

The movie was very loosely based on the true story. Reading the book gives a much better picture. That said, it is a fun movie. My favorite wine movie is "A Good Year" with Russell Crowe and Marion Cotillard.

Oh, and I did forget to list one of my all time favorites -

The Outlaw Josey Wales

The Outlaw Josey Wales

This is one of my favorites Clint westerns, along with The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Those two are filled with bada$$ lines ;D

In Outlaw, there is the scene where this bounty hunter comes back into a bar and tells Clint he is wanted by the law:

Clint: Reckon I'm right popular. You a bounty hunter?
Bounty hunter: A man's got to do something for a living these days.
Clint: Dyin' ain't much of a living, boy.

Clint, of course, proceeds to shoot him dead making it a true statement. Maybe I never grew up, but I love that movie as much now as the first time I saw it as a teenager.
