I'm sure I'm not the only one who sometimes wants to watch a movie but has NO idea what to watch...
So why not make a massive movie list with other TBTers?

So why not make a massive movie list with other TBTers?
Here is what to do:
- Suggest a movie!
But don't just post the title and say it's awesome.
Include the genre, the date of release and the plot
(no spoilers, you can also link to an external website that has the plot).
If you can, list a few similar movies.
That should help viewers know if they might be interested in watching it!

Watership down is based on a famous novel and has a very touching story.
If you think this is going to be cute and rainbows...
then I am going to dissepointing you.
According to lapine culture and mythology, the world was created by the god Frith, who represents the Sun. All animals lived harmoniously, but the rabbits eventually multiplied, and their appetite led to a food shortage. At the prayers of the desperate animals, Frith warned the rabbit prince El-ahrairah to control his people, but was scoffed at. In retaliation, Frith gave special gifts to every animal, but some animals he made predators to prey upon the rabbits. Satisfied that El-ahrairah had learned his lesson, Frith also gave the rabbits speed and cunning; while many would seek to kill them, the rabbits could survive by their wits and quickness.

In October 1957, after the launch of Sputnik, a giant alien robot from outer space crashes into the ocean near the coast of Rockwell, Maine, and wanders onto the mainland and into the forest, where it becomes entangled and trapped in the power cables of an electrical substation. Nine-year-old Hogarth Hughes follows the trail of destruction through the forest left by the robot, finds it, frees it, and befriends it. The Iron Giant, which has lost its memory, accompanies Hogarth back to the house where he lives with his widowed mother Annie. The Giant tries to sustain its energy by eating off the ties of the nearby railroad tracks. Alarmed by the sound of an oncoming train, Hogarth tells the Giant to repair the tracks. But it takes too long, and the train collides with the Giant. Hogarth hides the damaged robot in their barn, and soon discovers that the individual parts of the robot are self-repairing.
It has a very Studio-Ghibli vibe to it, but it isn't. I still love it the same though. Here is a summary:

The two leading actors are Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (same as Shaun of the Dead). It's also the second film in what is called the "Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy", with Shaun of the Dead being the first and The World's End being the last.

Based on a true story
Years earlier, a puppy is sent from Japan to the United States, but escapes when his cage falls off the baggage cart at an American train station. Professor Parker Wilson finds the abandoned dog and when the station controller refuses to take the puppy, he takes it home with the intention of returning the animal to its owner. Initially, Cate Parker does not want them to keep the puppy. Parker learns that the dog is an Akita. The dog has not been claimed when he returns to the station the following morning, so he takes him to the college, where Ken, a Japanese professor, suggests that perhaps the two are meant to be together. He translates the symbol on the collar as 'Hachi'—Japanese for the number 8—signifying good fortune. Parker decides to call the dog Hachikō. Parker attempts to play fetch with Hachi, but he refuses to join in. Cate receives a call from someone wishing to adopt the puppy, but having seen how close her husband is with Hachi, she tells the caller, "Hachi has already been spoken for. "

The story begins in summertime. Sara Goldfarb, an elderly widow living alone in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, spends her time watching infomercials hosted by Tappy Tibbons. After a phone call announces she will be invited to participate in a game show, she becomes obsessed with regaining the youthful appearance she possesses in a photograph from Harry's graduation, her proudest moment. In order to fit into her old red dress, the favorite of her deceased husband Seymour, she begins taking a regimen of prescription weight-loss amphetamine pills throughout the day and a sedative at night. Despite Harry’s warnings about amphetamine dependence, she passionately insists that the chance to be on television has given her a reason to live. When her invitation does not arrive over the fall season, she increases her dosage but begins suffering from amphetamine psychosis, hallucinating that she is the principal subject of the game show and her refrigerator is a menacing, living monster.

That's right foo's, Pulp Fiction #1 movie of all time. It's got drama, suspense, intrigue, comedy and cool. Released in 1994, it popularized Samuel L Jackson, and brought John Travolta back from the dead. Written and directed by the most incredifun director of the ages, Quentin Tarantino. The plot is simply guys being cool guys. I dare you to think of a better way to describe it if you've seen the movie. I shouldn't even have to write this, as it should be a rite of passage for any human being graduating from infant school.
This is a Japanese film about a paranormal investigator investigating ghosts, psychic powers and cults. Eventually the three subjects come together in a really bizarre fashion.
I would suggest this film just for the fact that it broke the mold of the typical Japanese horror film. There's no girls with black hair crawling out of TVs to kill people. There's no little boys that sound like a cat. There's no jump scares.

This is basically a collection of short horror films, with the only connection between them being that they are on VHS tapes that are being watched by some guy. The film's parts are a bit hit-or-miss. You'll love some of them, others you'll think sucked. But I think everybody agrees that the vampire story is the best one.
There's also a V/H/S/2, which is not as good, in my opinion.

At first glance, this looks like a run-of-the-mill horror flick. A group of teens decides to go camping in the woods and they start being killed off one by one. However, the group finds out that their deaths were planned by a company that controls the monsters. This film uses the cliches from horror films, while at the same time turning them on their head.
A man finds out he's good at killing and goes on a killing spree. Everybody's a target, from men to women to children. He films his murders, and it's obvious the takes pleasure in it.
This film is done in a documentary-style, but it is very graphic. It's also not officially out, as the director decided to forego its mass release to instead push Quarantine, a crappy remake of the Spanish film [REC] (which is also amazing).

This is a film about a young boy who has problems that are a gift. Not a gift, but a curse, he'd say. He can see dead people and it makes him scared. He gets psychological treatment by his mother's request (his mother doesn't know about how he can see the dead, she just thought he was acting weird), but something about his psychologist is strange, and only his patient knows.

The film is about a family finding a feral woman and taking her captive. The father wants to bring her into normal human civilization (or so he says) and needs the entire family's help for that. Even though it seems like this feral woman might be inhuman with the way she acts, it eventually becomes clear that this family has very dark secrets to keep.

Two guys decide to cut class one day and end up in an abandoned psychiatric hospital. While they're there, they discover a naked young woman who can't speak. While one of them expresses interest in using her, the other one refuses and leaves. The next day he hears about how she got raped, and the one guy tried to kill her several times without success. Dubbed "Deadgirl", the woman is used and abused over and over again, not only for sexual pleasures but also for the rush of killing someone.
The film is very gory, and it's fairly sick in its content. However, I think a lot of people can learn something about human beings by watching it.
