    Making a list of films I'd like to collect. Please help?

    I'm creating a list of films I would like to get a hold of. With your help guys I'm sure this list will rock.

    Thing is the films I am looking for have a certain criteria. This is why I need your help. I don't exactly know the criteria myself. The best I can do is say to you guys that what I am after would maybe fall under the Fantasy or Science Fiction of film. Here are a few films that fall under this criteria of mine and hopefully you'll get the certain theme I am asking for.

    The Labyrinth.
    Dark Crystal.
    Never Ending Story.

    Flight of the Navigator.
    Short Circuit.
    The Goonies.
    D.A.R.Y.L.
    Batteries not Included.

    As you can see the films are kinda old. Does anyone see what I'm looking for? I've separated the first three from the rest as I believe they fall under "Fantasy" maybe? While the rest are Science Fiction? Star Wars goes without saying.

    Now there are a few more resent film I know of like Pirates of the Caribbean, Big Fish and Narnia etc. Those films are welcome if you feel it should really be mentioned but try and stay with the theme of films in the above list. I'll make a separate list of films that are more resent.

    Also, discussion of any of the films is welcome.

    Thanks in advance.

    Edit: Updated list,

    Classic Sci Fi.

    Flight of the Navigator.

      Stargate SG-1? Yea, I did enjoy the show. That would fit into a more resent science fiction series right? Doesn't fit well into the list but still interests me.

                  Not enough cartoons on that list.

                  Flight of the Dragons - might be harder to find but worth it if you can get it. Science vs. Fantasy ftw
                  The Last Unicorn - easy to find and awesome.
                  Secret of NIMH - I love this movie.
                  The Hobbit - no explanation needed
                  LOTR Cartoons - weird but still cool to watch and see a different interpretation.

                          Blade Runner
                          Donnie Darko

                          The Stargate movie is kinda lame.

                              You guys are legends. I'm going to Wiki all these film (well the one's I haven't heard much of) and get back to the thread and update it or something.

                              Thanks again. This list is going to rock.
