Classic/popular movies you've watched for the first time recently?

Unsure if it's a "classic" although it certainly has a place of honor in the horse girl canon, but I only saw Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmaron for the first time about a month ago. I really liked it! The animation is lovely and I like how they mostly avoided having the horses speak, apart from body language (could have done without the narrator though). The soundtrack was cheesy but I liked it, and I think the themes of freedom and anti-colonialism were very well done. Just a really good horse movie overall. I have not seen the sequel, it looks horrendous Dx

I also only saw Millennium Actress pretty recently, and that one was great as well. I liked the blending of fantasy and reality and the love story at the core of the film was a very sweet one. Very cool movie!

currently working through the lord of the rings movies (:

I haven't seen Lord of the Rings since I was small and I've been dying to rewatch them again soon. It's been so long it might as well be my first time watching them. I really love the way those movies were made and I love Peter Jackson's stuff, so I hope I like them as an adult.

i've watched fellowship and two towers so far (extended cuts) and i'll probably watch return of the king tomorrow. i'm enjoying it although i'm normally not huge on fantasy settings

I haven't seen those since I was 8! I should probably rewatch them

Speaking of Lord of the Rings, I just watched those movies for the first time recently! I had made it most of the way through the theatrical versions before with my best friend, but we never finished. However, we ended up going with my mother to see the extended versions in theatres recently! I loved the movies (and also fell in love with Legolas )---they were absolutely splendid and very moving. Peter Jackson did a wonderful job---for most of Return to the King I was literally on the edge of my seat.

i finally watched the truman show for the first time! i knew the twist from pop cultural osomosis and all that, but it was still an absolute rollercoaster from start to finish.

I've only watched the Hobbit since I watched it in school once.. but LotR is on my list!

Most of the "cutural classics" I haven't watched or like watched recently, stuff like Star Wars or Back to the Future or the Princess Bride (second favorite movie) or Scott Pilgrim (first favorite movie)

The most recent one was the 1990's Clue movie, and dang does it still hold up! I absolutely love the last line of the "true ending" version because it almost feels like one of those memes, he's like "it was me, in the cellar, with the pipe" (i dont remember the actual location/item) and its so good aaa
