Most people have seen a variety of movies, staples include The Princess Bride, Sixteen Candles, Pretty Woman, Citizen Kane, Apocolypse Now, Breakfast at Tiffanys......my favorite old classic is Imitation of Life.
Some of the new stuff out worth noting is The Departed, Little Miss Sunshine, Employee of the Month, and Marie Antoinette

When you say 'Classics' what do you have in mind, cause that covers a lot of ground. Or eras.
Gone with the Wind, Casablanca, Citizen Kane- these are classics, but they're old Hollywood classics. They're from what is known as 'The Golden Age of Hollywood'.
Modern Classics can include anything made during the 60s onwards, like The Godfather, or Star Wars or Silence of the Lambs.
You also need to pick a genre- Comedy maybe? Or Drama?
Here's an excerpt from this book I have called '1001 Movies To See Before You Die'. Of course we really cant see all 1001 of them, but these are good titles (and the year it was released) to start with. Have fun!

The Usual Suspects - One of the best films ever.
Shawshank Redemption - Phenominal movie
Hopscotch - Relatively unknown comedy with Glenda Jackson and Walter Matthau
The Green Mile - Another Stephen King book done beautifully
American Beauty - The great Kevin Spacey
Forest Gump - One of the Best
Godfathers 1 + 2 - Classics 'nuff said.
Anything by Alfred Hitchcock - All classics
Anything Monty Python - If you like British humor these are bibles to life....
There are too many more but these will get you started
Good luck!

Just recently saw Hollywoodland and Running With Scissors. Both are good, Running With Scissors was kinda bizarre though!
