    Jaws, it's a classic.Unfortunately however it was cheapened by brutal sequels.

    Have to be Close Encounters which I saw at the flicks as a 14 year-old, a couple of weeks after seeing StarWars (which had been a real disapointment.) CE3K on the other hand changed the way I thought about - no not UFOs'- movies! and what could be acheived with special-effects and music. Pity about the so called Special-Edition which was no such thing...

    mine has always been E.T. ever since I saw it first. It's probably one of the first movies I saw and I've never looked back. Years later when I thought about it I realised it brought a new meaning to friendship. Duel was pretty good for a first attempt. Then you'll always have the fantastical Jones Trilogy

    E.T., with Saving Private Ryan as a close 2nd place.

    Don't usually go for Spielberg movies - especially if they're PG.

    But JP is one of my favs - because of its groundbreaking cgi which was used sparingly to great effect.

    Also enjoyed AI and Schindler's List for being untypical of his work.
