So, I have made a huge list of some great movies everyone should see if they haven't already. I tried to pick more obscure films people may not have heard of, movies people may have forgotten about and some classics. There are children's movies that I loved growing up, b-movies, brilliant documentaries, hilarious stand-up. Then at the end are some t.v. shows that are good (some are better know and some not so well know)---there also some forgotten gems in there. Pretty much the good, the bad and the cheesy...but they are all movies I really love and hope people get to see a few and enjoy them.
