    What modern movies are destined to be come classics?

    here you list movies made between 1990-today that you think will become classics.

    here's my list.
    The Truman Show (1998)


    Starring:
    Jim Carrey
    Laura Linney
    Ed Harris
    Noah Emmerich
    Natascha McElhone

    Truman Burbank (Carrey) is TVs biggest personality...........
    .........only he doesn't know it. He was one of 5 unwanted preganncies that was chosen to have his entire life aired on TV, live, and uncut. He is the first person to be legally adopted by a corperation. Christof (harris), the creater of the show, controlls Truman's life, and is pretty much God to the set. Everybody around him is an actor, and he lives in a giant dome on the Hollywood mountain in LA, with the sun and stars controlled by a giant crew with computers in a giant tower disguised as the moon. Truman on the other hand, thinks he's living a normal life, he gets up, goes to work, goes back home to his wife (Linney) and goes to bed, and occassionaly, he hangs around with his lifetime friend (Emmerich). But some very small happenings are starting to tip Truman off, and Truman starts believing that his life may not be what he thought it is. Christof is trying despiretly to keep Truman from finding out his world is fake, and that every moment of his life is being televised to the world. But Truman is already at the point of no return. Rent the Movie and find out the rest.

    LOTR most likely. I doubt the Truman Show will though it was pretty good.

    IMO, National Treasure should at least come close to a classic in a years' time.

    On the shore lay Montezuma

    National Treasure was just a sorry attempt to jump the gun before the 'Da Vinci Code' came out just so they could get socially accredited with symbology based films.

    War Of The Worlds
    Sin City
    Crash
    Million Dollar Baby
    TOYNBEE IDEA IN KUBRICK 2001 RESURRECT DEAD ON PLANET JUPITER
