What are the top ten most recognizable films of all time?

• My Guess
• Most Star Wars movies
• Jurrasic Park
• Jaws
• Titanic
• Wizard of Oz
• Most Harry Potter Films
• Superman: 1 and 2
• ET
• The Lion King
• The Godfather
• Any Lord of The Rings film
• Majority of Walt Disneys Animated Films including Pixar.

The Maxtrix should be somewhere here.

• Star Wars iV
• The God Father
• Apocalypse Now
• Any Harry Potter Movie
• Jaws
• Wizard of Oz
• ET
• Any LOTR movie
• Matrix
• Jurassic Park

I think fight club would be up there, maybe saving private Ryan as well.

Wizard of Oz is somewhere at the top if not number 1.

Titanic and the Godfather are both definitely up there

Star Wars

Titanic

The Godfather

Gone with the Wind

The Sound of Music

The Ten Commandments

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Jurassic Park

Indiana Jones maybe?

Superman (In general not a specific one)

Titanic

Lord of the Rings

Matrix

James Bond

Toy Story

Both i guess.

• Star wars (the saga in general)
• Jurassic park (the saga in general)
• Wizard of Oz
• Matrix (the saga in general)
• Home alone (1 or 2)
• E.T
• The nightmare before christmas
• 101 Dalmatians (live action)

• Shrek (the saga in general)
• The mask
• Pretty woman
• Back to the future
• Adams family

There are so many titles that anyone could guess easyly by viewing the first few minutes of the movie (excluding the opening title)

@jb681131: The Live action version of 101 Dalmatians is more recognizable then the original animated version?

It is not an ordered list. Lost of Disney animated movies would certainly make the top of an ordered list, but it is hard to classify these things.

Ok i see..Good point..Why did you choose the live action version to be your list in the first place? It seems a bit out of place compared to the other films on your list.

@jb681131: I can't imagine the live action version of 101 being as recognizable as the others. Seems like an outlier.

Rear Window ( one of my favorite movies of all time)

LOTR trilogy( superb fantasy)

Civil War(the comic book movie I have waited for)

The Winter Soldier(the fighting)

TDK(superb villain)

Matrix trilogy(awesome story)

Sin City(just awesome art)

Shawshank Redemption(friendship)

Léon(antihero)

Whiplash(because of my own musical background)

There you go...

Well, show it to anyone, and the person will be able to name the movie. Maybe not give you details of the movie.

Show Matrix to my grand-parents and they won't have a clue what they're looking at. Or show Pretty Woman to any kids/teens they won't have clue either.

A recognizable movie, is a movie you see it, you know what the story is mainly about. A most recognizalbe move, is when many generations and categories of people can recognize the movie.

Batman 89

Scarface

The Matrix

@mindleech: sounds like you just said movies you like, rather than recognizable. But I also really like whiplash

haha

Yea I went in too personal.

But I have that universal taste amongst my firends, so why not.

It'd be way too hard to choose a top 10

Ok I'll try to list 10 that no one has yet:

2001: a space odyssey

West side story

Rocky (most of the series)

King Kong (any version)

Alien (1-3)

Friday the 13th/nightmare on elm street

300

Pulp fiction

Cast away

Goodfellas

Yea i wholeheartedly agree with your definition of most recognizable films..But the live action version never gave off that vibe to me..The cartoon sure..It seems based on my personal experience that most people have seen the cartoon and barely know about the live action films existence..This is especially true among young people born during and after the 90s..The situation might be completely different in the UK though..Where the opposite might be true.

@jumpstart55: I don't know which is more popular where, but the cartoon is much older, and they even made a 102 dalmatians live action movie. Just to mention.

Fair enough i guess..Besides the animated film which was my first introduction into the 101 Dalmatians canon..I was aware of the 102 film way before the 96 live action films..lmao..So i guess it all depends.

Depends on who you are asking but the majority of people

The Lord of the Rings (As a Franchise)
Titanic
Jaws
