Guest Svoboda_3 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 What is a top movie you are embarrassed having not watched yet? For me, it's Indiana Jones or any Star Wars movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwfulHomesick 148 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Every movie mentioned in this thread so far. Not embarrassed, I'm just not much of a movie guy. I get the "YOU HAVEN'T SEEN ___?" a lot from people. diamond_ace 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Victor 10,909 Posted August 4, 2014 Admin Share Posted August 4, 2014 Like Awful, not embarrassed, just can't be bothered. Godfather and Forrest Gump, yeah. Most of the Terminators. In light of the convo in the other thread, most Marvel films. And Batman Begins because fuck logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotAVHLM-GM 1,858 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Most of the movies my wife talks about (also really classic ones) surprise her when I say 'Haven't seen it yet'. So this could be a long list. But I guess I will go with 'The Godfather' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissioner Beketov 8,991 Posted August 4, 2014 Commissioner Share Posted August 4, 2014 As a film guy this thread makes me cringe. But, at the same time, I can add to it. Ghostbusters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spangle 49 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 (edited) Never seen Star Wars. Have only seen the first Terminator (which I did not like). Also have never seen Scarface, Citizen Kane, or The Green Mile. EDIT: Though, to many people I know, the worst that I have yet to see are ones like Get Him to the Greek, though I have no shame about that one.

Devise 4,475 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Can't really contribute to this in the traditional way. I go out of my way to try to see pretty much tons. Even sometimes bad movies, just for the laughs. Provided the premise is interesting. But I've gone back and watched old Hitchock black and white films and enjoyed them. Or something from the 60's that is pretty much fantastic like Lawrence of Arabia. Anyway there are a few on my list that I do need to get around to watching. Vertigo The Sound of Music (not a musical guy) West Side Story (similar reason) Chinatown American Graffitti Stagecoach Any Indiana Jones Movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just began watching a lot of movies last year. Aside from the ones I mentioned and the ones Devise mentioned (-Chinatown, which I have seen), I can't really think of anything that would be a huge gap. Obviously, there's plenty of gaps in what I have seen, but nothing absolutely egregious like those mentioned here.

Obviously, there's plenty of gaps in what I have seen, but nothing absolutely egregious like those mentioned here. Yeah as douchey as it may sound it really did feel enlightening when I just took a journey back through some of the more old school movies you hear the real old film buffs talk about. Things like Casablanca, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, To Kill A Mocking Bird, Psycho, Sunset BLVD, 2001 A Space Odyessy, etc. I wouldn't say my trip was so fruitful that every movie still holds up as something I actually enjoyed. But I was trying to view it from the perspective of what people would of thought of it at that time. Some of the classics to actually still hold up, but others? I watched like 3 old silent films and that was a weird trip to just learn what a script can do for a film, and also what stories are being told even in the movies we watch now by the smallest little details.

For sure. I've seen a few of those (Cuckoo's Nest, Psycho, and 2001) and all of them certainly feel old, but in particular, Psycho really holds up. When it comes to 2001, I actually liked it, but the coolest part for me has been watching sci-fi films since then and being like "(that was in 2001, that was in 2001, that was in 2001." I still want to watch some of old silent films, like Charlie Chaplin stuff and Metropolis, but just have to convince myself that I truly want to. I think they'd be interesting from a film history aspect, but I need to be in the right mood for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike 708 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I use IMDB a lot but when I'm in the mood to watch something over the last 30 or so years I usually just head to boxofficemojo click yearly and then look through the list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diamond_ace 3,107 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 As a film guy this thread makes me cringe. But, at the same time, I can add to it. Ghostbusters... I actually get this, although I'm not a "film guy" at all. I'm a "book guy" which in our society, is even worse for making me cringe at what people haven't read. However, as I have watched probably less than 20% of the movies in this thread (nor do I have any shame in saying so) I can see from other people's perspectives how it's reasonable for books as a medium not to interest them, just as movies as a medium don't interest me.
