So I'm watching basic instinct at the moment and wondered if you guys had any classic films suggestions.

Lazy Sunday vibes

Not as "fruity" as Basic Instinct but most of the old Ealing comedy films are just right for a lazy Sunday. Gentle, easy-going and no evil plot twists or leg-crossing shockers

Rear Window is a Classic. Watched it a couple of months ago. Great show. 12 Angry Men is brilliant.

'Zulu' and 'Waterloo' do it for me in terms of 'classic'. Not to everyone's taste, I guess, but I am a History nut...

Definitely go for something 80s. John Hughes or Spielberg. Goonies is a great shout.

There and to the left a bit

So many classics from all eras - from old black and white comedies (Norman Wisdom, the Ealing ones, I'm Alright Jack etc), the classic war films of which TV over Xmas has been full of them (Where Eagles Dare, Dirty Dozen, In Which We Serve and more), Carry On etc etc right through to modern classics like Shawshank, The Green Mile and yet more besides
