That, that is quite a list.

I've seen most of them, but you forgot Event Horizon, Mel Gibson's Apocalypto, and the TV series Andromeda, imo. (That series deserves a movie, although most people don't like it due to crappy soundtrack and story, I believe it goes deeper than that.)

I LOVE Princess Mononoke I think everyone should watch that movie atleast once. I grew up watching it and I still do watch it from time to time. The movie has a lot of the same things like tree spirits etc.

Whoa, a big list. I haven't seen all of those.

I agree with the most, disagree with a few.
