Other than polarized filters and ND filters are there any filters used commonly by landscape photographers?

Graduation ND filters and Reverse Grads are good for sunsets.

When shooting on black-&-white film ,  I use red , orange and occasionally green  [ not all at same time]  to manipulate the grey rendering of landscape colours .
Of course ,  I know most digital cameras these days typically have a mode for achieving black-&-white images with built-in digital filters to achieve basically the same result .

While I have all of the above, and more.  The ones I use most are 6 stop ND, Reverse graduated filter and polarized filter.  That's it for me.

Polarizers, A big stopper, and a few other ND's for me.  Polarizer is what I use the most.  The ND's are usually for clouds and water motion.

I had a Lee filter years ago, I used to get a blueish tone from it, how are the new filters in that regard?

I haven't bought any new ones.  Just have a big stopper I use for specific uses.

I use B+W for the rest of my filters.

My Lee Big Stopper must be at least 10 years old.  Love this filter.  Mine does give a slight blueish tone, but that is easy to fix in post.
