    A movie someone has to watch "in their lifetime" is a very different thing to telling someone to watch the best movies ever. While there is overlap, a movie to watch "before you die" or before you are no longer a human being, has to be something that instills a great deal of human emotion within you.
    Whether it be a sad movie, a happy movie, a funny movie, a goofy movie, a movie that shows the evil of humanity, a movie that shows our undying goodness, these movies have to be ones that can guide you through life and help you to understand and reflect on the world we're stuck with.

      I like that list. Fight Club is the most misunderstood movie ever, but people love it anyways because their subconscious mind knows, what it is all about and the message is goddamn right. In short: it is about modern society being a society of hypocrites, which makes you sick if you try to identify with the role you play in it. the narrator became sick because of that, identifying with his ego, with the things he owns, and with the role he played in that society of hypocritics. nobody can help him, because nobody knows what causes his suffering. not even the doctor, so a self-healing process is induced: a psychosis. a hallucination (created in his subconscious mind) (which the narrator doesn't know about) (it's Tyler Durden of course) shows him what is the root of the problem and what he needs to change in his life to end the suffering. and it works out. that was a short explanation. your welcome people.

      But, to be fair, the author says in the description that these are his favourite films, so there's no problem, it's his choice.
      Hence this comment. It sounds like a list for someone who hasn't seen many films in their life, unless they didn't like some of the greatest eras of cinema such as the new wave (especially French one), Hong Kong films from the 90s, Japanese films from the 50s and 60s, recent Korean thrillers, etc etc.

    I appreciate your honesty as you didn't hesitate to include the superhero movies. People gotta accept that not including superhero movies in such lists does not make you cool. It just sometimes shows that you're trying too hard to be cool by not including such magnificent pieces of movies. Wherever the appreciation is due, it should be given. There are DC & Marvel movies worthy of making their spot in such movie lists. 'The Dark Knight Trilogy', 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier', 'Avengers: Infinity War' and many such movies deserve their place in these lists.

The only superhero film that i would consider as a top 50 film would be the dark night cause that is a good film, which doesnt use the “formula”.

However your title stated *_50 Movies to Watch Before You Die_* which is something else altogether. If the 50 movies one must watch before they die do NOT contain a single Black & White film, a Foreign film and NOT a single movie before the 1980's (I guess they did not make great _must see_ movies back in the 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's) then that list is way off the mark.
