I just checked myself on that…I’ve seen 83.
I haven’t seen more than a few seconds of Star Wars, **The Empire Strikes Back **or Return of the Jedi.
At this point the amount I would enjoy them is much less than the enjoyment I get from seeing uber-fans get apoplectic.

I’ve seen ~135 of those top films.
I think I’ve only seen 43 of the ones on that list.
Two more if you count seeing most of the film, but with no sound.
45 for me
Ditto.
Also, I’ve never seen a Sylvester Stallone movie. Nothing against him. Just never got around to it.
For the longest time the most famous movie I’d never seen was “Rocky.” I finally watched it a year or so ago. It was good, but way sadder and way less inspirational than I’d been lead to believe.
Deliverance
Fight Club
Gone with the Wind
King Kong
I’ve seen 70 of the movies on the IMDB list. I try to avoid movies that are scary, violent, or described as “thrillers”, which lets out a lot of very famous ones.
I’ve seen 89 of the top 250 but only 2 of the bottom 100.
I haven’t seen any of the Harry Potter movies. I tried to read the first book and couldn’t get halfway through it, so I never bothered with the movies.
Besides Grease, I have never seen any of the Lord of the Rings films, none of the Shrek films, none of the Pirates of the Caribbean, and none of the Harry Potter films.
God bless you always!!!

I’ve seen 7 of the bottom 100…if watching them on MST3K counts.
I cut and pasted a list from above, deleted the ones I’d seen and added a few I haven’t. It just scratches the surface.

This. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with y’all?
Tons.
A few I’ve made an effort to watch but got bored by and tuned out -
Citizen Kane (people think this is good? Whoever wrote that opening monologue REALLY needed to be taught show don’t tell)
Godfather Part 2 (can’t identify why I never get involved, just don’t get far into it)
Reservoir Dogs (have no idea what’s going on)
Donnie Darko (actually got it on right now and still not clear on what’s going on, I tuned out)
Every famous horror movie (can’t stand horror)
**Top Gun. **
I had no interest in seeing it in 1986 and have no interest in seeing it now.
There’s a lot of them to be sure, but the ones I get the most grief over are Titanic and Top Gun.
