Which classic / famous / beloved films have you not seen? ironclad Send a noteboard - 26/10/2010 09:46:38 PM
And why!? Maybe you plan to and it just didn't happen yet, maybe you decided not to long time ago.

Mine are:

The Godfather.
Not one of them. Mafia stories do nothing for me, usually. But I keep telling myself to catch it next time it's on and always forget or don't bother.

Casablanca.
The final scene is so famous that it feels pointless to sit through the whole film when you know how it ends. Plus I often have a hard time relating to the themes and the making of old films.

Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Just not a fan of men in drag and musicals.

The sound of music.
Again, a musical. Also, somehow that film is very little known here and hardly ever on. Maybe because of the Nazis? Nah, we love Indiana Jones, too.

What are yours? :)
*MySmiley*

You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.

Too many to list Stephen - 27/10/2010 01:31:01 AM 714 Views
I remember a top 100 list posted a while back BlackAdder - 28/10/2010 05:27:44 PM 905 Views
Those last two are inexcusable. No wonder the Von Trapps were fleeing from your people. TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 02:14:56 AM 788 Views
A lot. It's that anti-hype thing. nossy - 27/10/2010 03:27:00 AM 797 Views
Found a better list. nossy - 27/10/2010 03:31:53 AM 855 Views
Watch them, now. *NM* jh - 27/10/2010 06:51:25 AM 380 Views
Psh, better ironclad - 27/10/2010 09:09:27 AM 813 Views
Pft, where's your list? nossy - 28/10/2010 07:23:48 PM 601 Views
I wouldn't be able to make a list that contains "important" stuff that means nothing to me ironclad - 28/10/2010 08:36:39 PM 816 Views

I don't like Woody Allen either, but I'm not sure I've given him a chance. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:10:17 PM 756 Views
Unlike the two haters above, I actually rather liked Sunset Boulevard. Legolas - 27/10/2010 07:59:30 PM 838 Views
I've got two or more votes for it. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:11:19 PM 833 Views
Yeah, and the two votes against it haven't actually seen it, so... Legolas - 28/10/2010 08:57:17 PM 793 Views
Singin' in the Rain Rebekah - 28/10/2010 10:45:08 AM 770 Views
Um, I'm not kidding at all that I'll take you up on that. We'll send the boys out. *NM* nossy - 28/10/2010 08:14:14 PM 496 Views
Excellent. Rebekah - 28/10/2010 08:34:58 PM 705 Views
How can you not have seen Singing In The Rain? You should watch it tonight Mark - 28/10/2010 03:36:29 PM 816 Views
I can't. I have to wait until I'm in Scotland. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:39:33 PM 723 Views
Well as long as you watch it Mark - 29/10/2010 02:45:19 PM 746 Views
And about these... Legolas - 28/10/2010 09:09:11 PM 934 Views
I watched half of Blade Runner a couple of weeks ago and then got bored. Darth_Katie - 27/10/2010 03:43:47 AM 741 Views
I've tried to watch it 3 times now :/ *NM* Deadsy - 27/10/2010 08:35:31 AM 390 Views
What's wrong with you people? *NM* ironclad - 27/10/2010 09:10:02 AM 423 Views
In their defense, Blade Runner is kinda boring by today's film standards. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:31:07 PM 434 Views
For me, the one that always gets people is Braveheart. Craig - 27/10/2010 03:46:33 AM 796 Views
postponing that one to the next century is a good idea. *NM* jh - 27/10/2010 06:52:03 AM 321 Views
Yeah, you're not missing that much... it's fun, and spectacular, but mostly just a popcorn movie. *NM* Legolas - 27/10/2010 08:00:04 PM 410 Views
Don't watch it. It is appalling. Rebekah - 28/10/2010 10:46:53 AM 800 Views
Okay, now I gotta step in and say: One of the most enthralling and best films of the 90s *NM* ironclad - 29/10/2010 05:14:22 PM 433 Views
Jar-Jar-lover. *NM* jh - 29/10/2010 11:00:35 PM 389 Views
Preach it. *NM* Rebekah - 29/10/2010 11:12:03 PM 401 Views
In all seriousness ironclad - 29/10/2010 11:22:47 PM 623 Views
Fair enough. Rebekah - 29/10/2010 11:29:51 PM 658 Views
I liked it a lot, not sure if it's one of the best of the 90s though. BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 02:20:17 AM 906 Views
It surprising because it's still aired on TV fairly frequently BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 02:16:41 AM 947 Views
Who wants to watch a movie with commercials? Craig - 30/10/2010 03:55:25 AM 725 Views
I liked it. nossy - 30/10/2010 05:49:14 PM 619 Views
You are messed up snoopcester - 27/10/2010 10:37:37 AM 818 Views
You're just mean because of FantasyFootball *NM* ironclad - 27/10/2010 12:06:46 PM 417 Views
No! snoopcester - 27/10/2010 12:35:19 PM 781 Views
You are arguing with a man who liked Jar Jar Binks Mark - 27/10/2010 12:44:31 PM 710 Views
How long until someone had to bring it up? ironclad - 27/10/2010 12:46:16 PM 776 Views
Pfft, you obviously never found out about my letter to the German government Mark - 27/10/2010 01:00:40 PM 719 Views
Good point, there is no hope for him snoopcester - 27/10/2010 02:08:39 PM 734 Views
Jar-jar Binks is one of the most eloquent fictional characters of all time ever in the history of BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 11:05:50 PM 811 Views

Oh behave yourself ! Michael - 28/10/2010 02:31:17 PM 758 Views
I'll see if I can list a few off the top of my head. Palatine - 27/10/2010 04:43:20 PM 745 Views
I find the inclusion of Jackass under classic/famous/beloved films to be hideously ridiculous. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:36:25 PM 384 Views
As do I. Palatine - 28/10/2010 05:16:51 PM 814 Views
The first three of yours, and a few other big ones. Legolas - 27/10/2010 08:05:12 PM 857 Views
Wizard of Oz and at least one of the Terminator films are the most surprising. TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:35:04 PM 725 Views
Wizard of Oz is a very American thing, but yes, Terminator would shock people here too. Legolas - 27/10/2010 11:57:25 PM 795 Views
I first saw the Terminator films just this past summer. Craig - 28/10/2010 07:13:51 AM 728 Views
Wizard of Oz is on TV here every Christmas or so ironclad - 28/10/2010 09:26:18 AM 714 Views
As someone who once dressed up as Dorothy for Halloween Mark - 28/10/2010 04:02:24 PM 770 Views
For some reason, I've decided you should watch North to Alaska. *NM* nossy - 28/10/2010 02:30:13 AM 344 Views
have you seen Gone With the Wind? random thoughts - 28/10/2010 07:01:00 PM 840 Views
Yes. Love it. Why d'you ask? *NM* Legolas - 28/10/2010 08:47:15 PM 415 Views
There seemed to be some big holes in your American classics random thoughts - 01/11/2010 05:11:03 PM 728 Views
My main one... Michael - 28/10/2010 09:48:10 AM 957 Views
