***You have a pretty decent list I'd say, but Spring Breakers IMO was garbage. I NEVER quit watching a movie half way through but I had too. It was like a long music video and not a very good one at that. I had no connection what so ever to the characters. But to each their own I suppose.

1870s

Officialy, cinema haven't been thought up yet, but already many attempts at making photos move has been taken.
Muybridge's The Kiss (1872) is pretty kinky (and therefore amazing), although it's even questionable whether it can be considered cinema.

1880s

The birth of cinema. In this decade camera was almost only used to record actuality.

I've seen quite a few, but Roundhay Garden Scene is the best. Accordion Player is pretty cool, too, though. Monkeyshines is perhaps the first experimental film ever.

1890s

Still a lot of actuality, but first feature films emerge. The birth of many genres, like comedy or horror.

I've seen dozens from the decade, but nothing beats Duel au pistolet (1896). Other titles worth mentioning:
Das boxende Känguruh [The Boxing Kangaroo] (1895) - man gets f*cked by a kangaroo
Escamotage d'une dame chez Robert Houdin [The Vanishing Lady] (1896) - great Méliès short
La France qui travaille [France at Work] (1895) - wonderful documentary
In the Grip of the Blizzard (1899) - blizzard apocalypse!
Un homme de têtes [The Four Troublesome Heads] (1898) -
Méliès losing his head
The Miller and the Sweep (1897) - best of Brighton School!
Dickson Experimental Sound Film (1894) - first sound experiment!
Annabelle Serpentine Dance (1895) - dozens of films like this, a lot of them with beautiful hand-coloring
Après le bal [After the Ball, the Bath] (1897) - first erotic film! so kinky!

1900s

Cinema starts to tell stories. Birth of many genres (sci-fi, western etc.) and further development of techniques. Cinema starts to be perceived as art.

Dansa Serpentina [Serpentine Dance] (1900) - perhaps the most beautiful from the bunch
Le voyage dans la Lune [A Trip to the Moon] (1902) - the ultimate masterpiece of the 1900s
La vie et la passion de Jésus Christ [The Life and Passion of Christ] (1903) - amazing and very ambitious, aiming to show the whole life of Christ!
Coney Island at Night (1905) - one of the first eye-candies!
La poule aux œufs d’or [The Hen That Laid the Golden Eggs] (1905) - amazing fairy tale ending with the counsel of cosmo-chickens
Pickpock ne craint pas les entraves [Slippery Jim] (1909) - better than a lot of Melies! Best Chomon!
Molière (1909) - a wonderful biopic
The Airship Destroyer [The Battle in the Clouds] (1909) - striking sci-fi!
The Great Train Robbery (1903) - great western! The last sequence is kvlt
Rescued by Rover (1905) - groundbreaking! The camera moves!

1910s

Rapid bloom of cinema all around the world. The incipience of national cinematographies. First masterpieces.

Afgrunden [The Abyss] (1910) - Asta Nielsen discovers acting and dances erotically in this groundbreaking melodrama marking the beginning of Danish hegemony in world cinema that will last until the end of WWI
Ved Faenglets Port [Temptations of a Great City] (1911) - the paragon of them all movie paramours Valdemar Psilander in yet another masterpiece of the golden era of Danish cinema
L' inferno [Dante's Inferno] (1911) - outstanding special effects in this Italian adaptation of Dante's Inferno
Сумерки женской души [Twilight of a Woman's Soul] (1913) - Yevgeni Bauer introduces surrealism and deep focus to Tsarist Russia melodrama some dozens of years before others
Amor pedestre [Pedestrian Love] (1914) - hipsters decide to show only the legs of lovers in one scene etc. years before another hyper-hipster Bresson decides to only show somebody's hand
Hypocrites (1915) - the first American female filmmaker Lois Weber crushes the overrated Griffith's Birth of a Nation with this three-times shorter, yet better hellluva movie, continuing her streak started with 1913's Suspense
Les Vampires [The Vampires] (1915) - Louis Feuillade proves there's no one better when it comes to photoplay series, improving the ideas used in the already-amazing Fantomas
Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages (1916) - Griffith proves he's better than Weber and perhaps not even a racist with this incredible grandiose spectacle of technical novelty (although the crane shot was used before this in 1914's Cabiria)
J'accuse! [I Accuse] (1919) - Abel Gance proves that there simply is NOBODY better creating the best French Impressionist Cinema movie ever and one of the greatest silent masterpieces ever to grace silver screen
Himmelskibet [A Trip to Mars] (1918) - marks the end of Danish cinema reign and heralds the beginning of new trends in sci-fi cinema

1920s

The rise and fall of silent cinema. The era of dozens of masterpieces. Silent cinema reaches its highest point and becomes the ultimate visual story-telling medium, soon to be partially destroyed and rebuilt in a different form by sound cinema.

Körkarlen [The Phantom Carriage] (1921) - Victor Sjöström strengthens his position of a king of Swedish cinema and creates one of the greatest silent films
Der müde Tod [Destiny] (1921) - Fritz Lang from Germany does not fall behind creating one of the greatest humanist masterpieces of all time
Человек с киноаппаратом [Man With a Movie Camera] (1929) - Soviets can't be any worse! Viertov masters his idea of kino-eye in this super-fast and super-modern city symphony
Броненосец «Потёмкин» [Battleship Potemkin] (1925) - Eisenstein, believing in kino-fist instead of kino-eye, rises Soviet Montage to its extremes in this incredible masterpiece
Обломок империи [Fragments of an Empire] (1929) - a relatively unknown director, Fridrikh Ermler, creates a masterpiece on war, human memories, relationships and... communism
Napoléon vu par Abel Gance [Abel Gance's Napoleon] (1927) - Abel Gance does not give up after his mangum opus of the 1910's and makes another masterwork, this time it's a glorious pean in the name of Napoleon and France
Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927) - Murnau comes to America and paradoxically makes his best film, the best romance movie of all time
La passion de Jeanne d'Arc [The Passion of Joan of Arc] (1928) - Danish Spartan makes one of the most expensive (yet so ascetic) movies to this time, Falconetti gives the best performance known to man
The Last Command (1928) - von Sternberg's directing, Bert Glennon's cinematoraphy and Emil Jannings' acting combined to create a masterpiece one of its kind!
Greed (1924) - Erich von Stroheim attacks with a behemoth of a film that gets brutally butchered by producers, but later remastered for all of us to behold its amazing glory

And that only covers the silent era. In my next post in this thread I will cover the first era of true sound cinema and the war years of 40's and as well as the incredible 50's. We will see about the 60's.

1930s

Thus came the first decade of sound, although sound films were already being made in late 20's, silents were still made in some parts of the world until the mid-30's - i.e. in Japan due to huge popularity of Benshi.

City Girl (1930) - Murnau reinvents the romance of Sunrise and breathes new life into it
Земля [Earth] (1930) - Dovzhenko ends his Ukrainian Trilogy with a collective poetry genre specific only to him and maybe Eisenstein's Old and New
M (1931) - the sound era seems no obstacle for yet another Fritz Lang's German Expressionist masterpiece
Trouble in Paradise (1932) - Lubitsch's playfulness and kinkiness resulted in perhaps the best romantic comedy in cinema history
La grande illusion [Grand Illusion] (1937) - Renoir's gentle approach to war in contrast to many harsh Remarquesque (see what I did here?) flicks popular in the 30's is something to behold
Olympia 1. Teil – Fest der Völker [Olympia Part One – Festival of the Nations] (1938) + Olympia 2. Teil – Fest der Schönheit [Olympia Part Two – Festival of Beauty] (1938) - two-part masterpiece funded by Nazi party remains to this day one of the best spectacles of its kind ever recorded
Le quai des brumes [Port of Shadows] (1938) - Marcel Carné creates this haunting Poetic Realism prophecy only a year before WWII started
Angels With Dirty Faces (1938) - After he's made dozens of films in Hungary and America, Hungarian immigrant Manó Kertész Kaminer directs this humane masterpiece
残菊物語 [The Story of the Last Chrysanthemums] (1939) - Mizoguchi makes his first masterpiece from a tragic story with world class cinematography (in Japan that was usually far behind in technical terms!)

1940s

Not necessarily covered in my list, the important post-war masterpieces were made in the 40's. New genres spawned right from the smokes of war: Trümmerfilm, Italian Neorealism...

簪 [Ornamental Hairpin] (1941) - Shimizu directs this striking beauty of a movie according to mono no aware philosophy
Vredens dag [Day of Wrath] (1943) - Dreyer talks about witch trials in his trademark ascetic style
Les enfants du paradis [Children of Paradise] (1945) - Marcel Carné directs his magnum opus
The Grapes of Wrath (1940) - John Ford being John Ford
晩春 [Late Spring] (1949) - Ozu starts his Noriko Trilogy, Setsuko Hara confirms her status of the most beautifiul woman alive
The Spiral Staircase (1945) - Siodmak directs this proto-giallo with utmost respect to Dorothy McGuire's beauty
Key Largo (1948) - Humphrey Bogart becomes the paragon of badassassity in this John Huston masterwork
White Heat (1949) - great goodbye to gangster film from two of genre's greatest: James Cagney and Raoul Walsh
酔いどれ天使 [Drunken Angel] (1948) - for the first time two greats - Akira Kurosawa and Toshiro Mifune team up to create a Japanese gangster film masterpiece
Partie de campagne [A Day in the Country] (1946) - Jean Renoir starts, but never finishes this rural masterwork

1950s

???

Find out after MoFo 50's Countdown!

1960s

The best decade in history of cinema was also the decade of novelty. National New Waves spread all across the world with fresh filmmakers willing to bring something new to the world of film. Japanese New Wave, Czechoslovak New Wave, French New Wave, Hungarian New Wave, New Hollywood and many, many more...

To be continued...
