Movies you HAVE NEVER seen but everyone else you know has!

Cafe Society
1

The Big Lebowski.

Half-Baked.

Office Space.

These three movies are quoted by my friends constantly, and by people of my generation (18 to 21) in general…and I have NEVER seen them. Even though I am a cinephile leaning towards a future career in film and have seen a seemingly unending library of movies, I still haven’t watched those three, and references to them fly right over my head every day.

Other movies I haven’t seen that everyone I know has: Clerks, Dead Presidents, and Trainspotting.

Incidentally I only saw Pulp Fiction for the first time last winter, and Reservoir Dogs as well (despite having had a poster of Mr. White in my room [that my dad got me] for about 2 years prior.) I’ve never seen From Dusk Till Dawn, and attempted to watch Jackie Brown once but was too high to remember it.

I’m sure SOME of you others here have some movies that are like that for you. If there are any, here’s the place to share.

In addition to not seeing either of these, I have not seen any of the Matrix movies, any of the Lord of the Ring movies, nor have I seen any of the Star Wars movies.

3

Titanic

Willow

Star Wars - Phantom Menace (I think it’s called - the most recent one anyway)

Exorcist

Halloween

Friday the 13th

(basically MOST horror movies)

All of the Austin Powers movies

And until very recently … Spinal Tap … but that’s been rectified! :slight_smile:

4

Never seen Donnie Darko, Casablanca, Psycho, or American Graffiti.

Yes, these are the movies that my friends talk about a lot.

5

I haven’t seen those either but I’ve seen Austin Powers and Spinal Tap.

I’ve never seen Kill Bill vol 1 or 2, or the 2nd or 3rd Matrix movies. Oh I never saw Jerry McGuire and that seems to be something most people my age saw (I’m 33.)

Go figure.

6

Oddly, being a geek *and * in the SCA, I’ve never seen a Monty Python movie. I know all the lines, tho’.

7

I have yet to see a single Star Wars movie, and I intend to keep my record unblemished.

8

The Wizard of Oz.

I’ve seen maybe 5 minutes of this movie (in passing). I really don’t want to start doing LSD just for one movie. The movie has exactly zero appeal to me.

I would like to try that Dark Side of the Moon synchronization thing, though.

9

I’ve never seen a “Star Trek” movie.

10

Pulp Fiction.

11

Citizen Kane. I already know about Rosebud, though.

12

Any and all STAR WARS movies

Nightwatch: Well, nobody really needs to see Starship Troopers. :wink:
