Jim Emerson's 102 Movies For Basic Movie Literacy
I am just re posting this here so I can find it later, I think it's pretty a good list although pretty dated (it looks it was written in 2006 and most recent movie on the list is from 1999). I have seen 40 of the movies and about 20 of them have been on my "watch list" for some time. There is also a few by directors I like that haven't looked into yet, and a few I just haven't heard of or don't have an interest in watching.
