I did think of that one, but i haven't seen it, so I've no idea if it's a "must see" or not. (I suspect not. ???)
-
I got this by receiving the wrong Hammer 2 on 1 dvd from an Amazon order! :D
I wouldn't say a "must see" ,its very similar to Hammers first two Quatermass films.
Hey i've now done Q as well!! :D

Great movie.
I saw this again after several years recently and was disappointed to discover that Michael Caines famous line "Stop throwing those bloody spears at me" in his trademark cockney accent ( like "Play It Again Sam" in Casablanca ) wasn't there and is a fabrication. :(

D-Duck, You Sucker
What was your favorite scene in DYS?
-
The over-sized stage coach when the snotty passengers were belittling Rod Steiger. And Coburn aimlessly wandering the desert exploding mountains. Found that rather surreal.

I spent 20 whole minutes coming up with my list. Finish yours!!! :P
Remember... "MUST-SEES", that part makes it the hardest.
-
Some of these might not be my first choice, but they would have been mentioned several times by now.
A - All the President's Men
B - Bridge on the River Kwai

F - For a Few Dollars More

N -
O - Once Upon a Time in the West
P - A Passage to India
Q - The Queen
R - Rent
S - Sunset Blvd.
T - Terminator 2: Judgment Day
U - The Untouchables
V - Venus
W - The Wind and the Lion
X - The X-Files Movie (not that great, but in lieu of anything else. . .)
Y - Young Frankenstein
Z - Zulu
Dammit, that's all I can think of for now. . .
-
However, even harder than listing great movies...
List movies YOU OWN for each letter of the alphabet. With letters such as X or Q, if you don't own one, list one whose title starts with the letter that comes before that.
Example...
P - choose two movies for P
Q - if don't have a movie for Q
R
S

As you may know (since i told you it something like 458 times), I'm at work, and it's quite boring. So I'm loghgind and unlogging myself the whole day, and while calling these ******* firms that never answer, I'm thinking to it :)
What's is strange is that for "U", "M", "O" and some other letters, I have at least 2 or 3 movies and it's hard to pick up just one... and for other letters, impossible to think to a MUST SEE movie.

Yeah i know what you mean. I had a hard time choosing between Breathless, Band a Parte, Belle de Jour, and others. With P i had trouble choosing between The Piano, Platoon, Pulp Fiction.. etc.
And the Hardest was maybe S, Saving Private Ryan, Singin' in the Rain, Sanjuro, The Seventh Samurai..
And... with Q, Quills was the only title i could think of... not that it's bad, it's just not a "must-see" compared to the others.

How could i forget high noon and my name is nobody?

"Q", the Winged Serpent if your stuck. (Yes, Im kidding.)
Casino is a must see movie ? Obviously we all have our opinions, but Casino ?

!!!
What's wrong with casino? it is flawed (the structure of the movie has something wrong, DeNiro's character isn't very developped, and sharon stone is may be too stupid) but it is definitively a must see movie, if not a masterpiece (it's in my top 20).
The camerawork and the editing are among the most brilliant ones that will ever be done, the acting is absolutly great, the way the story is told is incredlibly inovative... everytime i watch the movie, I'm like :o :o :o :o :o :o how the hell does Martin Scorsese do THAT??? :o :o :o

I'm a big fan of Casino myself.

Z?????
For a few, there are no answers. Some of the films I listed, I don't even give five stars. This is because they're important, none the less. The Departed, for example, gets 4/5 from me, but because it got such high critical acclaim, a film buff should see it.

Q... I don't know a good movie for Q. Quo vadis? is very good in book, but I haven't seen any movie version which is worthy to it...
U? Only one movie title comes me in the mind, Umberto D., but I don't know if it is good or not...

I thought of Quo Vadis?, but I don't know if it's any good. The only thing I could think of for U was Unbreakable. Y and Z have me baffled.

U - Unforgiven or The Untouchables (prefer the first)

Good idea. I'll use Unforgiven.

Is that Lucio Fulci?

I'm a big fan of Casino myself.
IMO, Casino's way better than "Goodfellas". Just my opinion, though.

Yep
IMO, Casino's way better than "Goodfellas". Just my opinion, though.
But Pesci's voice gets so annoying in Casino
