While it's definitely a partial survivors bias, I can't really name any recent movies that stand out as timeless classics. Avengers Onfinity War/Endgame was a massive point in time, but hardly something to watch endlessly even now. Star Wars is still clinging to movies made nearly 50 years ago. Spider man had a moment being the first post covid movie, but the film isn't memorable. Kingsman has been a great revival of the spy movie genre, but it's not masterpiece level. You could make a case for The Dark Knight, but it's easily just as memorable due to Ledger's death than the film's quality.

Don't know if we're counting animated movies but I feel like the Spiderverse movies will be a timeless classic.

Id say it has a chance, I'm not sure it stands up to peak Pixar levels, but it does a great job telling a story while honoring comics in general.

The first Dune movie was pretty good imo
