You have the honor of showing Equestria their first movie made from our world. Everypony who is everypony will be at the premiere, including all your favorites and are very eager to see what it's like! Now the big question, what movie made by humans would you show to the ponies of Equestria?
Would you show them a beloved classic? A cut classic? Or a more modern one to show them how far our technology has come? (Gravity, Pacific Rim, etc.) Pick related is the start of one of our most iconic film series, so I would pick that.
Keep in mind, ponies are very emotional, so be careful which movie you choose.

The greatest film ever made.
>>26192604
I'll show them a classic.
>>26192604
I show them Citizen Kane. They have no exposure to all the films that were influenced by it, so they'll be amazed.
>>26192833They would be bored.
>>26192604
I'd show them only the greatest work of film that we as a species have ever produced.

This is actually a very interesting question, and it isn't as simple as simply picking my favorite movie. As you mentioned "everypony who is anypony" will be there, so I have to take that into account. We want something with a reasonably wide appeal that won't horrify ponies with more delicate sensibilities. Ideally it would be something that could provoke a variety of emotions, to showcase a wider array of what we have to offer. Songs would be nice too, since that is a major part of pony culture.
That being said, I'm showing them Disney, and more specifically The Lion King. It doesn't rely on any knowledge of human behavior or activity, nor does it portray any species that are found in Equestria (with the exception of some zebras in the background a couple of times). The ponies can laugh at the jokes, cry when Simba's dad dies, and thrill at the power struggle lifted directly from Hamlet. Nobody will be offended or horrified. An enjoyable time to be had by all.
I don't imagine I'd be able to watch Crank with ponies any time soon.

Terminator 2, because it is literally a movie about friendship and the magic that results.

A Disney princess movie. a hand drawn classic one to set the standard properly, before moving on to other movies.
>>26192604
I'm going to be a smartass and choose this one
The Road
Freddy got fingered

>>26192604
I would show them whole back to the future trilogy.
I would say the second one, but it doesn't really make sense if you don't watch the first one and it leaves you hanging hard if you don't watch the last one too.

This movie. It will move them beyond words and well into tears, helping to show how humans manage to cope with life on Earth despite it being so shitty compared to Equestria and perhaps garner their respect for our mental and emotional fortitude. Because at the end of the day, we are all connected. Every little thing we do may have far reaching consequences that can manifest in the most seemingly unlikely places long after we die. Whether those consequences are good or bad is not important. Only that it mattered at all in the grand scheme of things is what is important.

What else?
Robin Williams fanboy coming through
for some reason, i got the feeling that this would terrify them
>>26195128
No. Those poor ponies wouldn't be able to take a feel of that magnitude.

Saw First to the Finale. Edited so that its one long film, make sure to magic proof and bar the doors. They must watch... or eat all the eggs.
>>26196235
Other Mother in natural form sure as fuck terrified me.
Great flick, though.
Any Burton fans here?
>>26192604
>everypony who is everypony
so nopony? I can't think of anypony who is everypony
>>26192604
I'd show them this :^)

Don't think I need to say much about this one...
>>26197301
Wouldn't they need to watch the TV series first?

The trick there is to show a handful of Pre-Cane films and then Cane itself
>>26193213
They haven't had the chance to become dirty filmic casuals like yourself yet
>>26192604
I would show this masterpiece.
>>26192604
and this one
This should be obvious.
"Mama always said..."
>>26197761
This or Iron Giant
>>26197804
Superman.....
I have a feeling a lot of these movies would need to be prefaced with a brief explanation of certain human world things. Like Iron Giant needs a little background explained (Cold War, robots aren't real, etc).
A Serbian Film.

Those movies are too scary for little ponies.

Faust worked on that movie. That would be a huge paradox.
