That's not at all what he was getting at.
I'm shocked at the people who haven't seen the Godfather movies, or even Terminator 2!
On the other hand, I've never seen Predator. |

I don't know why I haven't gotten around to it yet.... oh wait, yes I do. I'm against piracy and the local video stores (Even the one I work at - which includes "Classics" in its specialty lines) are fucking retarded and don't carry it.
Also, I haven't seen Shaun of the Dead. Didn't even hear about it until after seeing Hot Fuzz; which I loved.

How... how are you alive? Isn't that a Birth requirement for anyone who watches movies?

I know you were kidding around. I was kidding around too. |

I really like Criterion editions of a movie I like. It's been my experience that their dvds have great audio and visual quality as well as a good deal of extras. That being said, Armageddon is in their collection so...
I have only seen Godfather 1 and the first half of Godfather Part 2. I do not intend to revisit these movies or complete the trilogy as I didn't really like what I did see. I have also never seen Scarface nor do I feel it a priority. I'm kind of over the gangster movie scene. It was a high school phase for me. My favorite one is A Bronx Tale and if you've seen it, you'll know it's very different from all the rest.
I've never seen Ben Hur, The Ten Commandments, Lawrence of Arabia, Raging Bull, Amadeus, Metropolis, Dog Day Afternoon, Dial M for Murder, M, Streetcar Named Desire. Patton...
The saddest thing about this is I've sat through multiple viewings of The Room, Hard Rock Zombies, Ninja Kill and so many other horrible horrible movies. Do you think there exists a treatment center equipped to help me? |

Yeah, if a movie I like is on Criterion, thats the version I'm buying, so they have good films in there and their editions are fantastic. But, these films are few and far between hehe |

Yes, it's called a video store. : ) |

Yes it is. Immediately fly out to Utah, find the Tower Theatre on 23rd and 23rd and rent at least 30 movies a day and attend daylight and midnight showings. My walle- er, your movie prowess will thank you. |

The general consensus seems to be that it isn't so much good movies as it is good DVDs. I'm going to get their release of Charade before I get sloppy bootlegs; likewise, I want their Videodrome, not Universal's bare bones release. |

| I didn't like Godfather I, didn't finish Godfather II or watch any of III or intend to.
Call me dumb or impatient or whatever, but I'm just really bored by Alfred Hitchcock's movies.
I haven't seen any of the Lord of the Rings movies and I'm bored just thinking about it.
I think a lot of Scorsese and Spielberg movies are over-rated, but I don't really dislike them.
I haven't seen Casablanca, Gone With the Wind, Raging Bull, Wall Street, Unforgiven, Aliens and the list goes on and on.
And if we can do B-Movie confessions, I couldn't stand Wild at Heart. |
