Oops, missed that Star Wars was on there, so I’ll put up Planet of the Apes.

What makes Smokey and the Bandit so fun, is that you can tell that the cast is having a ball making the movie, and you're invited in.
I read somewhere that Jackie Gleason made up most of his dialogue. Very little was scripted.
The sequels were stupid, though.
Back to the topic, I judge a "great" movie if will stop what I'm doing and watch it if it comes on TV.
Even if I've seen it a dozen times, it draws me in.
That's why I don't put Apocalypse Now on my "best" list.
It was OK. But I wouldn't watch it again.
Same goes for The Deer Hunter.
Great acting and all, but just not enough to make me want to re-watch it.

"Duel" is so awesome.
So was "Trapped" with James Brolin.
And these were both made for TV movies.
I wonder if they would have made as big an impact if they were theatrical releases. Just brilliant storytelling and acting.
Both movies are basically a single character trying to find his way out of a nightmarish scenario.

I have seen one of these in full (Star Wars) and bits of the others. They didn’t impress me enough to see them in full.

Godfather 2, should be on the list. I prefer it over part 1, but 1 had the impact. i agree! those are my top two favorite movies of all time... i lump them together...

ExorcistIt just keeps getting funnier, every single time I see it.

My Name is Nobody, They Call Me Trinity, Trinity Is Still My Name. Add to that the Bronson movies and movies Burt Reynolds did. Burt was on Fast and Loud the other night. The years of stunts had causght up with his body.

Also the GM (”Owns....Owns”) of the Charlestown Chiefs in “Slapshot.”
To: EveningStar
No
The Sting?
No Patton?
No Jeremiah Johnson?
Some on their list belong there, while several others don't. Just my humble opinion of course.

Released about a year before he died, Alfred Hitchcock said that watching “Smoky And The Bandit” was one of his guilty pleasures.

I loved the Trinity movies. Nice going!
To: SkiKnee
I just watched a good movie from the early 70’s starring James Coburn . It has two different names, A Fistful Of Dynamite or Duck You Sucker. I also like The Wanderers but I'm not sure if that's from the 70’s. Cool Hand Luke was good but that came out 1967.
