I have yet to see: Lawrence of Arabia Citizen Kane The Graduate North by Northwest To Kill a Mockingbird Raging Bull Taxi Driver On the Waterfront A Streetcar Named Desire I didn't care for the following: Apocolypse Now Cool Hand Luke A Clockwork Orange
Oh yeah, and I hadn't seen Se7en until I rented it the same summer that I saw Pulp Fiction. Another movie that soon became one of my favorites. I had refused to watch Se7en, Pulp Fiction, and continue to refuse to watch Shawshank Redemption, on TBS/TNT or whatever TV stations those movies would always come on because I wanted to watch the whole thing in its uncensored glory. In a way, it makes me kinda glad that I haven't seen so many good movies, because with all the mediocre movies that have been coming out lately, it gives me a chance to see some awesome cinema for the first time ever.
I actually know what they are saying in this movie. The guy's life that was portrayed in this movie died recently.
The Treasure of Sierra Madre Casablanca (in it's entirety) Scarface (in its entirety) M Patton (in its entirety) Drunken Master
Not an easy movie to watch, but its probably one of the best I've ever seen. Lawrence of Arabia is soooooooo boring. I have never seen... Titanic A Clockwork Orange Taxi Driver Raging Bull 2001: A Space Odyssey Apocalypse Now The Deer Hunter Full Metal Jacket The Usual Suspects One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest Leon The Professional Alien Requiem For a Dream Jaws Blade Runner (Ugh, I have been trying to rent it for like the past 4 years) The Princess Bride Crash Seven Samurai
Remind me before I come down and I will bring it with me. I have a copy here... and I haven't watched it yet either.
i ve seen most of those. best ones in my opinion would be one flew over, usual suspects, and princess bride. out of those i havent seen seven samurai, blade runner, leon the professional, deer hunter, and 2001 space.
I haven't seen E.T. and I'm 37. It's probably the most seen movie ever by people living in the US that are my age.
Citizen Kane is boring as hell. It may be a "great" movie based on cinematography, willingness to speak truth to power, or any of a hundred other factors. If your measure of a movie is enjoyment of watching though, I would say you are fine just skipping it. Casablanca, on the other hand, moves relatively quickly and is quite enjoyable. As for me, probably Lawrence of Arabia is the only big one I haven't caught.
Agree with you on that. It may be historically groundbreaking -- but I was bored silly. Casablanca was great. I though Lawrence of Arabia was great too -- but then I saw it at the theatre and I like the big epics.
Star Wars fan? I've never seen The Godfather, yet I own it on laserdisc... Oh and L'il Pun... you started on the wrong foot by seeing The Phantom Menace. Check out The Empire Strikes Back.
