Cool list Mars. Ok, I'm leaving out Sci-fi/Horror movies like Aliens or Predator, gangster/crime dramas like French Connection or Heat, or superhero flicks like Batman Begins or Avengers. IDK why, I just am. Other than Die Hard, I'm focusing on contemporary Westerns, War movies, and Martial Arts flicks.

Die Hard
Young Guns
Enter the Dragon
The Eagle Has Landed
Guns of Navarone
Tombstone
Way of the Dragon
Force 10 From Navarone
3:10 to Yuma
Where Eagles Dare

Some epic war movies out there: Saving Private Ryan, Apocalypse Now. Those are great films, but can't say I love watching them. Same for the Bond films, John Wick, the Jason Borne series---all entertaining films, but idk, just don't love them. I used to rent the Bronson Death Wish movies all the time in high school. I haven't watched those in yrs. I gotta re-visit those.

If James Bond 007 movies count, then it would be Dr. No, followed by Goldfinger.
