Well, knowing you have a problem is the first step.
American History X is amazing, a must-see. Watch that first.
For a few years now, I've been working my way through the AFI top 100 movies of all time. The #1 is Citizen Kane, and I decided to save it for last. Everyone tells me that I'll be disappointed, though. Didn't see it on your list, did you like it?

i too came in here to post citizen kane. i torrented it (oh sue me, i'm not spending $27 on it, what a rip) and it's been sitting on my computer for a while, but i haven't watched it yet. i once fell asleep in the middle of it, but that doesn't count. then at the end, my roommate (i was watching it with my roommate) says "so wait, what's rosebud?" and i wake up and go "it was his sled from when he was a kid" because everyone knows that by now

[Kerrbear]

It's a SLED???



Just kidding. A friend gave me a copy about five years ago and it's been collecting dust ever since. I'm down to the really random stuff on the list (All Quiet of the Western Front from like 1935, a bunch of Charlie Chaplin) and I've kinda run out of steam. I feel like such a quitter.

[ggirlballa]

all teen movies with molly ringwald in them


or all 80's teen movies directed by john hughes

:o

[backwoods]

jesus, you've never seen Star Wars? for shame!!!!

[Randetica]

i in fact always hated sci fi :(

and i fucking hate adventure games especially zelda :mad: but thats another topic

[jabumbo]

its times like these that really makes me want to go and watch some black and white classic from the 30's or 40's


thanks a lot (y)

[Lyman Zerga]

i like 50's movies more than most new ones

[Randetica]

ok yesterday i watched:

fight club - 7/10
reservoir dogs - 0/10
ring - 6/10

[mikizee]

I've never seen any of the star wars movies.

Or any of the mad max'.

I might as well kill myself right now.

[Pres Zount]

I ordered the 1930's All Quiet on the Western Front from the internet and it sent me the new version. darn it.

EDIT: I've seen that entire list, I'm pretty sure, except for the godfather.

EDIT2: and rocky

[na§tee]

i have "1000 movies you must see before you die" and have ticked off all the ones i've seen. i would tell you how many that figure is but the book's at home. it's certainly not even 50%. but my degree did put my in good stead to see a lot of good isht.

HOWEVUH, i think the most "classic" of movies i have not seen is gone with the wind.

[synch]

The English Patient feels about as long as the rest of those put together.

[monkey]

i love love love love citizen kane. though that may be more because of my crush on orson than the movie's supposed greatness. though it is really good. :p

They don't make a movie as good as 12 Angry Men, Vertigo or The Big Sleep nowadays.

[Junker]

ok yesterday i watched:

fight club - 7/10
reservoir dogs - 0/10
ring - 6/10

Now you're kidding me Steph!!!!

Fight Club = the best film ever
Reservoir Dogs = at least a 8/10
Ring, you mean The Ring??? Samara, tape and all that shit right? Its a nice movie too.

[ToucanSpam]

I cannot believe youve never seen Star Wars.


Also, Resevoir Dogs deserves at least a 7/10. A 0/10 seems kinda like you didn't watch/understand the movie.

[beastiegirrl101]

I cannot believe youve never seen Star Wars..

I may loose some points here, but believe it because I have never seen any of them either. And I'm in no rush.

[beastieangel01]

citizen kane and cool hand luke

seriously though
Star Wars! Star Wars is love :( just don't bother with I, II, or III. Stick to IV, V, and VI.

[Freebasser]

Animal Farm :(

omg hater! you have to see the first three to be able to sympathise with darth vader!

[synch]

omg hater! you have to see the first three to be able to sympathise with darth vader!You can just read this (http://www.weeklystandard.com/Utilities/printer_preview.asp?idArticle=1248&R=EF1E85) instead.

:o

i've seen them all now

[beastieangel01]

that was fucking fantastic (!)

[Gareth]

i'd be more worried if you people hadnt seen such movies as:
predator
first blood
terminator
terminator 2
bloodsport
kickboxer
american ninja
escape from new york
showdown in little tokyo

[synch]

that was fucking fantastic (!)
I <3 that article.

[kll]

i recently saw annie hall and harold & maude for the first time...

my list includes:
breakfast at tiffany's
scarface
dr. strangelove

[ToucanSpam]

I may loose some points here, but believe it because I have never seen any of them either. And I'm in no rush.

It's a lot to do, I know. To sit down and watch 12 hours of movie. It's kind of like LOTR is now; virtually unwatchable due to the extreme length.

[zorra_chiflada]

omg that's exactly what i think too!

[Randetica]

They don't make a movie as good as 12 Angry Men, Vertigo or The Big Sleep nowadays.

i saw parts of vertigo yesterday

i hate myself for being a half assed movie watcher
im an addicted channel switcher
always scared i would miss something good on another channel

i could check the tv magazine before but nahhh

[Randetica]

Now you're kidding me Steph!!!!

Fight Club = the best film ever
Reservoir Dogs = at least a 8/10
Ring, you mean The Ring??? Samara, tape and all that shit right? Its a nice movie too.


i wouldnt say best movie ever, it was ok, great actors of course, a bit outstanding but it could never become one of my favorite movies, dont feel the need to watch it a second time

reservior dogs was one of the worst movies ive ever seen
if you take out the good actors and the brutal shit then theres nothing left
and i hate brutal movies, i think i even prefer scarface over that one

ring the "horror" movie was ok to watch but not very different from other soft cake horror movies

[Randetica]

i'd be more worried if you people hadnt seen such movies as:
predator
first blood
terminator
terminator 2
bloodsport
kickboxer
american ninja
escape from new york
showdown in little tokyo


i havent seen any of those cause im good enough to tell by the title that they are all nothing but annoying time wasters!
