FlyingJ 0 #1 June 4, 2009 ...should you be ashamed that you have never seen? For me, it was Groundhog Day. I'm happy to say I just saw it for the first time last week though. Friends have made fun of me for not having seen any of the Lord of the Rings movies, but I would hardly call them classics that everyone and their mom should have seen (like Star Wars, or Top Gun).Killing threads since 2004.

Hmm... GoodFellas is the one I can think of off the top of my head that I've only seen bits and pieces of. Same with Better Off Dead. Those are two that seem to have lots of pop culture zeitgeist around them that I haven't seen."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

NWFlyer 2 #10 June 4, 2009 QuoteHere's a couple of good lists of films that you can check off. Damn you!!! My Netflix queue already has 297 titles on it ... even if you knock out the TV series, that's probably still 200+ movies!!!!! I like the top 10 genres. Of those, I've only seen all 10 in Animation (and that's making an assumption that I saw Snow White and Pinocchio as a kid, because I haven't as an adult)."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

LongWayToFall 0 #13 June 4, 2009 Blazing saddles, most excellent. For me, its gotta be Fight Club, The Big Lebowski, and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jakee 1,257 #16 June 4, 2009 I should probably get around to watching Citizen Kane some time, and The Third Man. All Quiet On The Western Front.

I wouldn't call it an absolute must see movie, but it is a very, very funny action type film rather than a soppy romantic thing.Do you want to have an ideagasm?
