And it's kind of cheating cuz it's not technically a movie but the mini-series Over the Garden Wall is a must for the fall and all together runs about 2 hours
Some random movies I like off the top of my head:
The Princess Bride
Terminator 2
Kate and Leopold
Dogma
Memento
Oculus
Catch Me If You Can
Galaxy Quest
Matchstick Men
Kung Fu Hustle
Whiplash and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri are the two best movies I've seen in a long long time
The Austin Powers movies are fun if you are looking for something light with broad appeal
Me and a couple friends from Lemmy have also been having a movie night lately! We watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang recently, one of my favorite movies of all time so I suggest that one.
Bullet Train is pretty fun. I'm a big fan of one set films.
Galaxy Quest is a MUST. Same with Clue.
You know I've never seen Galaxy quest. I should put it on my watch list anyway
I haven't responded in an hour because I've been sat here in shock
FUCKING WATCH IT!
Like... Listen. I know I'm a nobody. But trust me on this one thing. Trust me.
Puss in boots the last wish.
It’s really weird just how good that movie was
The new Knives Out is coming up. The first and second deserve a rewatch.
The first Matrix, too bad they never made any sequels.
The Mask of Zorro is my all time top guilty pleasure.
Bram Stoker’s Dracula is great and incredibly horny.
Princess Bride.
Hot Fuzz, gets better every time you watch it.
Labyrinth, yes plz.
Muppets Christmas Carol, later in the year, but like the best Muppets movie.
Wallace and Grommet, any but Curse of the Wererabbit is my favourite.
Rocky Horror Picture Show, depending on the group.
Similarly, The Room. Set up some spoon emojis 🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄
Anything with Tom Hanks. Apollo 13, Forrest Gump and A Man Called Otto if you need somewhere to start.
one of my favorites to suggest is a classic called Paper Moon.
It's black and white and has that slower pacing of some older movies. I think it also stands up and has the kind of comedy that endures. We watch it every year around the holidays.
You can also have a look at what some other watch parties are showing.

You can also use an online service to keep a wish list of films or see other people's lists. Many people use Letterboxd or Trakt. I've just started using the fediverse service NeoDB.
