For me, it's Godfather. Yes, i know. Stop swearing at me. I'm sorry. I have it, I want to see it, I know I have to see it, but I still have not seen it. I'm ashamed now. Anyone else want to shame themselves?

Iv also not seen the following, and it is AWFUL but film is certainly not my forte and i am working on it!! Rocky I-V Indiana Jones - All Most of the older Arnie/Stallone films Thats just a starter because if i continue il be killed, but thats a lot of films just there! Im more of a TV person, but my partner loves films and watches far to many so i will catch up, trouble is she has seen most oldies therefore is unlikely to watch them ever. Might have to rope someone into a Rocky Marathon etc some day.

I inspired it sorta, I want in on the goods! ahem I admit, I have yet to watch the Godfather trilogy myself. I've borrowed Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb from the library numerous times now but I still haven't watched it. I would simply go down the IMDB Top 250 List but that might be too shameful even for me. This isn't a movie really but I bought Gankutsuo (Yes it's an anime I'm a terrible person that ought to DIAF) four months ago and haven't touched it since. It's supposed to be good but I've just been ignoring it. It just sits on my shelf leering at me.

Why didnt I see this sooner???" - yes, its that good. And rb6k, i thought my 'Godfather' confession would be bad, but you've never seen ANY of Indiana Jones films? ouch.. you may get flogged for that :)

At some point soon, I want to create a 'Listal - 100 Movies to See Before you Die.' Thread. All Members get to put forward a film of their choice (as many or as little as possible) which are truly amazing. They have to explain their choice too, so no one word replies. Then it needs 3 backings from other members to make it to the list. RB6K suggestions need 6 backings because he hates Star Wars and hasn't seen the Rocky's or the Indy's. :P

By the time i knew what i had missed out on i was years to late to bother catching up. I prefer watching series' because the story isn't all wrapped up in say 2-10 hours, i like the long haul of 20+ hours per story. I cant stand some films where everything is wrapped up neatly in 1 hour 50 haha. Still, no excuse for missing out classics, iv just never had someone say RIGHT this is on tonight, we are watching it! Or someone slap a DVD that wasn't brand new on. (I only saw all the star wars films properly the week Episode 3 came out!!)
RB6K Rank : 36	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 24 15:16 - Hahaha, i understand the star wars films! They are just over hyped to the extreme. I think they are cheesy and dated, and that there are far better written sci fi franchises in the world now. I know Star Wars started it all of, but it is, in my opinion, very corny.

Grand Assault Rank : 5	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 24 18:35 - I made a list for this kind of thing just the other day: http://www.listal.com/list/films-ought-have-seen-now Pretty shameful inclusion on there, or so I thought. Never seeing Indiana Jones' is like never being born! How many times are those kinds of films parodied!
vanious Rank : 329	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 24 18:44 - The Godfather Trillogy Scarface The Running Man Full Metal Jacket One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest The Big Lebowski And I'm sure there are more must sees that I can't think of right at this moment...Funny how I'll go out of my way to see some obscure B movies and not famous hits.
jgnikkila Rank : 63	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 24 19:54 - Ok, desperatly wanted to see for a long time (for years), currently sitting on shelf (for a couple months at least), yet unwatched, the following: The Thief of Bagdad (1940 Korda version) Pierrot le fou (Godard) Alphaville (Godard) Bob le flambeur (French noir) Mildred Pierce (40s noir melodrama) Touch of Zen & Raining in the Mountain (King Hu wuxia classics) Rashomon Sansho the Bailiff Excuse: currently into music, can't seem to balance my two obsessions. DVDs which have remained on my "buy next month" shopping list for years now: Lady Eve (Preston Sturges comedy) Odd Man Out (British noir) Orphée & Belle et la Bête (Jean Cocteau) Tirez sur le pianiste (Truffaut) The Killing (Kubrick noir) The Apartment (Billy Wilder comedy) Police Story, City on Fire, Full Contact (HK action thrillers) Excuse: no excuse, ashamed :( City of God (brazilian) Awesome movie, by no means is it anyking of boring euro arthouse "message" film. More in common with Goodfellas or somesuch. Get to it.
Prelude VIP Moderator Rank : 1	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 24 20:07 - ok, to all who posted: THIS WEEKEND, YOU MUST WATCH ONE OF YOUR MOST SHAMEFUL 'WANT TO SEE' FILMS, AND POST A REVIEW BY MONDAY no excuses. who's in for this challenge? I'll either put Godfather or City of God into my DVD player tomorrow night, so help me god (pun intended) and rb6k, you dont have a choice. Raiders of Lost Ark better be in your player or the Listal crew will fly over to your house and do an Intervention on you.
chibiyusa Rank : 90	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 24 20:35 - YOU'RE ON PRELUDE, I'M GONNA TOTALLY WATCH THE GODFATHER (only the first one, the other two I'll have to watch later) AND/OR DR STRANGELOVE BY THE PROPOSED DATE, BET ON IT! And if not, I will kill this kitten. And if you guys don't do this either say goodbye to the kitty too!

Bael VIP Rank : 3	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 24 23:11 - i'm up for the challenge Prelude. this weekend i'm gonna see Goodfellas, rate it, tag it and even write a review about it. promise. if not the gods of movies shall smite my dvd player on the spot!
Deleted Rank : 45860	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 25 0:55 - Indiana Jones? Like in the video games? Apocalypse Now Blade Runner Forrest Gump Mary Poppins These aren't mine, but I can access them at any given moment nonetheless. I happen to own the Jason Bourne Collection but have yet to watch any of those on DVD. I've been wanting to see Seven Samurai for the longest time. I guess I never really thought there'd be a forum thread about what movies I ought to be ashamed of having not seen for all the opportunity.
Prelude VIP Moderator Rank : 1	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 27 20:13 - Well, I did it. I saw Godfather last night. Will add a review in next day or two. Overall, good, but a bit too much. It really could've had a lot of filler trimmed out of it.
vanious Rank : 329	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 29 13:52 - Checking off Full Metal Jacket, hoping to check off Scarface and The Big Lebowski shortly.
Bael VIP Rank : 3	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 30 5:16 - well, as promised i watched Goodfellas last weekend, which didn't blow me off the socks as i wished it would (after being #15 on IMDB). i didn't manage to write a review in time tough, but today, you can behold it in all it's glory online.
Prelude VIP Moderator Rank : 1	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 30 7:01 - I'm lagging behind on my review as well :) Man, its a hard writing a movie you feel indifferent about. its so much easier if you love it, or hate it.
Deleted Rank : 45860	Posted : 1 year, 7 months ago at Apr 30 7:38 - Just write about that, that you feel indifferent. You weren't passionate about the plot? You couldn't empathize with the characters? Was there another movie with a similar theme that you felt was better? Worse? What changes in the movie would have made you give a crap?

eleblack Rank : 1784	Posted : 1 year, 5 months ago at Jun 15 5:25 - Awww, it's The Ring. I swear, I don't know how it's possible I haven't watched it yet. Ok, I do know that I started to watch it but I fell asleep almost immediately :D And I never got back to it. blushes
