Schindler's List

Well in my oppinion it also had inluence on films like XXX which is spawning a sequel.

Wizard Of Oz - to think that film was made in 1939 is unbelievable. The fact it still stands up today is even more astounding.

Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs - it pretty much started the whole epic animation movie. Without this film, we wouldn't have the likes of Pixar doing what they do.

Last but not least, this is my most influential film of all time:

STAR WARS.

If this film never got made, simply put, the film industry would be COMPLETELY different. First of all, without Star Wars making Lucasfilm all that money - we wouldn't have had Pixar as it was a division of Lucasfilm. Innovations in technology would have different, if made at all, like the move to digital. Industrial Light and Magic and Skywalker sound. We wouldn't have had Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park or Terminator I don't think.

Ladder 49

How The **** is Ladder 49 Infulential? It came out 4 months ago?

Yes Stars is one of them no question asked!JM

I'd say almost no movie can match Star Wars in the impact it had on society and the movie industry. There may be better movies, but none had the impact it had.

That's a fair few off the top of my head. All influenced in some way by Bond.

Influencial films, well I've kinda made a case for Bond. However i would say Star Wars and The Seven Samurai are probably the two most influencial.

The Matrix; effectively brought Bullet-time to mainstream and probably will have an effect upon future movies and their special effects.

Isn't THE most influencial, but certainly is influencial.

Suck my ass. Like any of the movies that you like are influential. "Oh the movies I watch influence me to kill people with katanas and rape them."

****in make fun of me if you will for being influenced to be a firefighter, go ahead. Loser.

Do you know what influential means? I'll give you time to look it up.

This thread is more on the lines of movies that have had an impact within the movie industry itself rather then movies that have influenced you personally.😬

But anyway if ladder 49 has influenced you to become a firefighter good for you.👆
