Late X. Early: Tom Swift, Ender's Game, Dune, Larry Niven. Later, Atlas Shrugged, The Dispossessed, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Hemingway, Harry Potter, Hunger Games. NOT Catcher in the Rye, it's navel-gazing cruft that Joyce did far better.
OG Star Wars trilogy, OG Star Trek movies and TNG/DS9 series, ET, Alien(s). The Big Lebowski, the Shawshank/Pulp/Gump Oscar race, Saving Private Ryan, The Matrix, Old School, Gladiator, Bladerunner, Braveheart. We lived through the 2nd golden age of historical epics and the first of big budget scifi, a well as some truly great soundtracks.
We largely grew up in the great television desert but X Files, Seinfeld, That 70s Show, Friends, and early ER stand out. Band of Brothers is the best thing ever put on a screen of any form imho.
