Answer 3

I'd base the list on which movies influenced Hollywood the most. What movies gave other movies their formulas to copy, that did it first and best.

Off the top of my head I'd pick
Cimmeron 1932 version
all quiet on the western front 1933 version
Stagecoach
Citizen Kane
King Kong
Peeping Tom
Maltese Falcon
and let's say Jaws, Star Wars and Animal House for 10.
