I'll start this off.

I havent seen any of the Star Wars movies. Not the first three and not the last three. Ive seen enough highlights and scenes from the originals that I could probably give the basic star wars stories. Ive also played enough Star Wars games to know most of the Star Wars Mythos and what not.

Ive just never sat down and watched the movies start to finish.

I dont know why I havent watched them. For a while it I just thought it was funny seeing people's reactions. Though now I think its just kind of annoying. If I watch the movies now they wont have the same impact. So I really dont see much point in it.

You also haven't seen the lord of the rings movies

And you've never played resident evil 4, because the zombies and or stuff like that bug you and give you nightmares.

The only one worth mentioning is Event Horizon, i had nightmares for a couple of weeks from just listening to my friends talk about the movie. At the time i was a toddler but even today i refrain from even talking about it.

I remember seeing Event Horizon in the theaters, I can see how it would scare someone. Not sure that I've seen it since then, don't get around to renting movies that I saw in theaters.

I have seen a ton of movies, especially the "classics". I don't like most of them lol. I haven't been watching many movies lately, along with TV. I find that has been really good for me. There are a few movies that I really like, but I don't own any ATM, and really do not care to.

I loved Event Horizon.

@Alabama Man: The only Godfathers worth watching are the first two. Some might dispute it and say just the first one but I like the second also.

I can't really think of anything of the top of my head that I haven't seen if we're talking about something that was a box office hit or did well but eventually became some kind of cult classic. I even went to go see Battlefield Earth and Wing Commander (both were not my choices) at the movie theater when they were released. :/

Titanic - It looked retarded
Godfather series - Not into mob flicks
Star Wars series - Dunno, just never have
Indiana Jones series - probably will someday
Lion King in english - seen it in french haha
Son of Mask - just didnt look that good
Anything old - I've only seen like 3 movies from earlier than 1980, seen parts of old movies and hate them.

I havent seen any of the Godfather movies, none of the Indiana Jones movies. Just recently saw The Boondock Saints (earlier this week). Never seen Event Horizon. Never seen Gone with the Wind or The Sound of Music. Never seen the movie Slapshot. Never seen any of the Resident Evil movies.

I agree with whisp but probably for different reasons since whisp doesn't seem to watch very many movies, especially classics of americana which is what tarantino seeps himself in

I don't think I've ever watched in it's entirety: any clint eastwood or charles bronson movie. Which is unbelievable if you spent your childhood watching mostly network tv like I did, because I remember those movies being ran on a frequent loop (kinda like karate kid.)

Lol Charles Bronson movies, they're like always associated with rape/gang rape scenes.

Don't deny it. Your opinion was swayed by my eighth grade english paper.

There were like 90 Planet of the Apes movies, I think only the first counts as a classic.

I haven't seen any of the black and white classics, like Casablanca, I've just never had the interest.

I've seen a lot of classic movies: Giant, Psycho, Citizen Kane, Gone with the Wind, Star Wars. Indiana Jones ... but never Godfather. Don't know why. I remember watching through some of it, but I've never seen it all the way through.
