Depends entirely on the person's taste...
Off the top of my head, maybe three Russell Crowe such as: Cinderella Man, Gladiator, and either A Beautiful Mind or Master and Commander
If I go the Robin Williams route, I'd probably recommend Patch Adams, The Awakenings, and either Jacob the Liar or Bicentennial Man
If animated is the way they want to go, then probably Bolt, How to Train Your Dragon, and either Kung Fu Panda or Prince of Egypt.
If they are looking for war, then probably Enemy at the Gates, Saving Private Ryan, and the third could be just anything like...Black Hawk Down, Thin Red Line, We Were Soldiers, etc etc etc
As for non-CGI animation, I'd probably say Road to El Dorado, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, and The Lion King... so many quotes...SO MANY QUOTES...
Um... If we're going space, then probably Armageddon, Red Planet, and something like Apollo 13
I mean...I've wasted my life on so many movies...YEARS WORTH OF TIME...that I would literally just have to ask them what kind of movies they liked (Specific titles/genres and why), and then make recommendations based of what I know about their taste preferences.

AsifinPassing: Waste of time... yeah, that's what most movies are these days. Instead of "I have a story I would like to tell through people acting it out," most movies these days are "This is the kind of story people will pay to see, so let's make more of them."
That's why all the movies I can really, wholeheartedly recommend are old ones, made back when they actually told good stories.
So... how's the latest Avengers movie shaping up?
