    Default Movies everyone else has seen except you

    A lot of these I’ve seen bits and pieces of but I’ve never actually sat down and watched the entire movie from start to finish. Some are by choice simply because they don’t look interesting to me. Others I’ve just never gotten around to for one reason or another.


    It's a Wonderful Life
    Casablanca
    Gone With the Wind
    The Sound of Music
    Jurassic Park
    Any of the Alien movies
    Any of the Predator movies
    Reservoir Dogs
    The Usual Suspects
    Young Frankenstein
    The Godfather Trilogy
    Goodfellas
    Pulp Fiction
    Blade Runner
    The Big Lebowski
    Most of the Harry Potter movies (I think I saw the first one)
    Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?

    I've yet to see Gone with the Wind actually, Fernando. I'm guessing it's as good as they say, then?

    Not necessarily, but I think that it (and the others I quoted) are classics that need to be experienced at least once, regardless of your reception afterward.

    Hi, my name is Bethany and even though I am a Southern Belle through and through, I've never seen or read GWTW.

    I don't think there's enough bandwidth for me to list all the movies I have not seen.
    People love frozen yogurt. I don't know what to tell you.

    IAWF was actually on TV the other day. I watched a few minutes of it but it just didn't hold my interest.

    The only thing I know about Casablanca are a couple of the famous quotes. Even though one is a famous mis-quote. I don't even know what the plot of the movie is.
    Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?

    Also, Blade Runner. Or any of the Mission Impossible movies (do people watch those?).

    It's a Wonderful Life
    Casablanca
    Gone With the Wind
    The Sound of Music
    Jurassic Park
    Any of the Alien movies
    Any of the Predator movies
    Reservoir Dogs
    The Usual Suspects
    Young Frankenstein
    The Godfather Trilogy
    Goodfellas
    Pulp Fiction
    Blade Runner
    The Big Lebowski
    Most of the Harry Potter movies (I think I saw the first one)
    You have some great movie watching in your future, I envy you. Not knowing your taste, I can't say for sure which movies you are more inclined to like. I would say start with Jurassic Park. It's a pretty good crowd-pleaser. I noticed some Tarantino films on your list. I would say start with Reservoir Dogs. If you like that, move on to his other films. Some people either love or hate him.

    I'm a die hard Big Lebowski fan, but it almost needs to be watched twice. The first time I watched it I didn't totally "get" it, I came back to it a year after my original viewing and I fell in love with it. I now own 3 Big Lebowski T-shirts.

    I noticed some classic sci-fi franchises there. I would start with Alien. The first two are great then they fall apart. The first Predator is really good, but the second is just okay. Blade Runner is very different and I'm not sure if you will like that or not. Also, if you haven't seen those, it makes me wonder if you've seen The Terminator franchise. The first two are must sees. Goodfellas and Godfather are the staples of the mob genre.

    This is a great thread. Even though I watch a ton of movies per year, there are still some classic films that I have yet to watch. I actually have Lawrence of Arabia from Netflix sitting on my table. I've tried to watch this film 2 times before and I've been unable to. Not because I didn't like it, but because it takes such a time commitment. Same goes for Chinatown.

    I too have never seen the Harry Potter series. I'm hoping to read the books first, just hasn't happened yet. Damn you George R.R. Martin.

    I was exactly the same with Withnail & I, I really wasn't too sure about it at first. 2nd time, I got it, and then with multiple viewings, it's become my all-time favourite film. Sounds like Big Lebowski will be just my kind of film, then.
