Terminator 2!! How I loved that movie, and still do :) Jurassic Park, The Matrix, The Sixth Sense and I would also agree with The Blair Witch Project-funny my husband and I were just talking about that movie!
I would add The Lord of the Rings to this mix, and Braveheart.
But I fear you're absolutely right, and have been lamenting this very idea for some time. It is possible it's because of our age...though I haven't heard my teenage children get particularly excited over any movies lately so...terribly sad. I hope we're proven wrong!

Hey there, @dreemit! Man, I've missed you!
You mentioned Lord of the Rings! That trilogy is my favourite film of all time (as I see as one movie chopped up into three). And yes, even though they were also taken from pre-existing source material, they were instant classics to the nth degree!
I'm with your teenage children on that (even considering the age difference). I never can excited and passionate about movies like before. A lack of originality? Too much exposure before release? Something is definitely not right and it's a crying shame that those rapturous "feelings" may never return within our lifetime again.
Bless you and hope you're keeping well. :)
