Knowing what I know now, I'd save myself a lot of time and avoid Hayek, Lacan, Baudrillard, Zizek, Spencer, and probably Singer too.
Chronological order
>>9334169
just useless/repetitive or what
>>9334177
i want to go philospher by philosopher not work by work, or maybe that's a bad idea
Schopenhauer, Shakespeare and God is all you need.
>>9334179
Its his personal opinion, they're just contraversial. You should atleast give them a shot.
>>9334157
Start with the Greeks.

assume everything written before hege has been read
Marx is needed for all the 20th century continentals/marxists. Husserl is needed for Heiddeger and the existentialists. Freud is also really important for the 20th century guys. If you're going the analytic route you'll probably need Frege.
Honestly, that list is way too big though. If you actually read a "couple of major works" from each author that list is going to take you like half a decade.

>Hegel > Schopenhauer > Nietzsche > Husserl > Heidegger > Sartre > Beauvoir > Merleau-Ponty > Barthes > Foucalt > Derrida
That would be one route
>Hegel > Stirner > Marx > Bakunin > Freud > Jung > Lacan > Adorno > Baudrillard > Zizek
That would be a more political/critical theory one. Obviously they overlap a lot.
>Darwin > Thoreau > Russell > (early) Wittgenstein > James > (late) Wittgenstein > Searle > Quine > Rorty
Chomsky and Singer can be read whenever.
I've only read The Republic , where do I go from here?

Tangentially related, but is there any reason to bother with Baudrillard if I've read Debord? I've read a couple chapters of Simulacra and Simulation and looked some stuff up on him, and it seems like an exact copy of Debord's work but slightly easier to read. The entire time I was reading I felt like I was just reading an essay on Debord or something.
