Just realized I forgot my 2nd nomination.
I’m surprised no one has yet mentioned Apollo 13, the visuals of the oxygen tank exploding and taking out a chunk of the spacecraft and the shots of earth from space were fantastic
Anyone nominated The Hunt for Red October yet… Just asking is all :0)
Sound of music and Quadrophenia.

Done n dusted…bit of a blonde moment:blonde_woman:
or did u mean:mask:
Animation movies included ?
I’d say Into the spiderverse
And probably any of the LOTR films
Days of Heaven should probably get a mention.
Néstor Almendros was good enough to convince people Malick had anything interesting to say after Badlands.
Deliverance is beautiful, too. Vilmos Zsigmond. it’s like a Bob Ross painting but there’s all kinds of nastiness nestled behind the trees.
So yeah , the return of the king.

Has Avatar been nominated? Shite film but visually stunning.
Argh how dare you lump me with nominating that, when I can think of a good few others which are also stunning visually (to me) but also far better movies.
And no Airplane is not a nomination by me
Anyone mentioned Lawrence of Arabia? Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon? Apocalypse Now? Fitzcarraldo?
The shining has to be in there, if not already nominated, I would put that in … will have a think about a second choice…
Apocalypse Now is a great shout!
Blade Runner and Blade Runner 2049.

Do we really need all three LotR films?
Alrady nominated 2, but if you’re desperate and willing to accept more than 2, I would like to throw into the ring The Perfect Storm.
Hero
the good the bad and the ugly
crouching tiger if the mention of Hero already has it nominated

Thought of a second one, in addition to The Shining -
Michael Mann’s Heat - aside from the shooting scene in the street outside the bank, generally throughout the whole film it is incredible, the dulled colours, the framing … everything is just visionally stunning!
