Hmm,
Usually with movie montages I can recognise about half, often more than half of the movies involved.
This time I’m being generous at claiming I recognised five.

Rambo - Not sure which one
Toy Story - Not sure which one
Speed
Cliffhanger

and one other I can’t remember.

I guess I don’t tend to watch theses sorts of movies.

Smerk the cutest dragon
Lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist
In Western Australi

Little Accipiter loved that girl enough
He told her jokes and crazy facts
And other forum stuff

Smerk the cutest dragon:
Traveled cross the sea,
To hunt her prey in foriegn lands,
And snuggle with Acci!

Smerk the cutest dragon
Is getting married now they say
Though little Accipiter
Has yet to name the day.

I’m kind of with Sharruma here.  But then I suppose this cliche tends to occur more often in crappier movies, and I tend not to watch those if at all possible.

I recognized a few more than that.

Platoon
My Cousin Vinny
Terminator
Patch Adams

Recognized some others not from having seen them but from the actors involved.  Can’t think of names though.

I got a few, but towards the end, I had no idea.  Full list of movies used, in order.

It’d be nice if they would release a list of the movies used in the video.
