[Bravehearter]

I love movies, I watch as many as I can. But there are a TON of movies that I have never seen that I am going to have to at some point. A lot of mine will seem shocking, because there are some big names in there, but here are my list of movies I want to see in the next 3 years that I havent yet.

- Star Wars Episodes 1-6. Yes. I have never seen a Star Wars, ill admit it.
- Godfather 1-3.
- Fear and Lothing in Las Vegas
- Last of the Mohicans
- Dances with Wolves
- Original Superman Movies


Hell.. this is depressing! *runs off to blockbuster*

Your best bet if you ever want to see them is to wait till the RotK extended edition comes out in Dec. and then watch all 3 extended editions, But its around 12 hours, so be prepared hehe.

[HurleyGirlie]

^^ yeah i'm waiting for December to watch the extended version...can't wait!!!

I thought he said GREAT movies.

That movie sucked, in my opinion. Nothing but Kim Basinger and Mickey Rourke fucking every place they could find. Her character was such an idiot, too.

I've heard it was great, and a must-see. But of course seeing as I've never seen it, I wouldn't know now would I?

[MuthaFranka]

I can't think of a single one.

I've seen literally every movie I can think of that was worth spending the 1.5 hours watching.

Eternal Sunshine however was best movie of the year by far. Best movie for a long time in fact. LOTR can shove a sword up it's ass when it actually comes up against shit like ESOTSM.

But then again, that's just me.

never seen it. but i hear its good...


*puts in DVD* Im watching it RIGHT now....

[MuthaFranka]

Donnie Darko is awesome.

It's only flaw is that it's impossible to know what actually happened unless you watch the extras or have seen something written by the director/writer.

[Tootsie Pop]

Yea... just finished it. I get some things.. other things went right over my head........

What was up with the "chubby" girl? I know she represents SOMETHING.. but i havent a clue what that is.......

*looks up Donnie Darko on the net* Throw me a bone here... ha ha ha

[MuthaFranka]

Hmmm I dunno lol

I just always found it somewhat funny when she says "chut up"

but that's just me being a dickhead



Seriously i think it maybe one of those lost innocence type of themes? I dunno, never really thought about it til now...damn you! ;)

[Tootsie Pop]

ha ha ha ha. I cant help it! It was just... too CRAZY!

Wow. You have got to see those movies. First, like I already said....The Godfather must be seen. Its a masterpiece and one of the best movies of all time. Pulp Fiction I look at much the same only its a modern classic. I saw it not long after it came out on video..and once I got past all the crazy violence I saw just how much Tarantino himself loves movies and how cleverly he tied all the short stories together to make one hell of a movie.

Shawshank Redemption is an excellent and moving film that I highly recommend. Morgan Freeman also stars in Seven(a disturbing film not to be missed). Full Metal Jacket I recommend though I have mixed feelings about(despite my respect for Kubrick)..I loved the first half of it(with great crude humor btw) yet the second half is alltogether different.

As for Raiders of the Lost Ark...I put that up there with having not seen Star Wars. With Spielburg, amazing special effects(for its time), humor, romance, and neverending action(oh and John Williams always does a fine job with a score) you can't go wrong. Its one of the best action films of all time IMO because it has a little bit of everything in it.

These are great movies people! Go see them! :P

And I also recommend The Truman Show to anyone who hasen't seen it.

[Bravehearter]

I just crossed 2 off my list,

American History X
Jackie Brown

They wernt posted but they were on in my own personal list :P

Cherita is the symbol for innocence in the movie. That's basically her only real purpose in the movie.

[MuthaFranka]

Pretty much what I assumed, haven't seen that movie in a while.

Cunning Visions, what a clever play on words buahahaha



The list given by Sydney has some very essential pop culture films on it. Go buy every single one of those movies.

Oh, and yes, if you've never seen The Big Lebowski, it's a must have.

[tadaoNakamaru]

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is another good movie to add to the list.

[Palmer of the Turks]

Beat this for awesome but unseen movies.

I have not EVER seen a Jay and Silent Bob movie.

NONE OF THEM.
