Movies you should see...

[Benji]

In celebration of the fact I've again had a joke go over my head having never seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off, I want to know what films you feel you should have seen due to reputation, but still haven't gotten round to doing.

[Skummy]

I've never seen a film by the Coen Brothers. Not one.

[Enter Blue Guy]

I think I've seen every movie I'd want to see or care about seeing.

Out of curiosity, what jokes from Bueller went over your head?

[TheRyno]

The Star Wars films.

A New Hope - Saw the Special Edition in theater.

Empire Strikes Back - Haven't seen the whole thing in one sitting but seen enough of it in pieces to know what's going on.

Return of the Jedi - Ditto.

The Phantom Menace - Just saw a few months ago.

Attack of the Clones - Saw opening night in theater.

Revenge of the Sith - Haven't seen yet.

[EndOfAnEra]

My girlfriend had never seen any Star Wars, Back to the Future, or Top Gun. Unacceptable.

[CQI13]

How about Fast Times At Ridgemont High

or

The Big Lebowski.

I've heard stuff from both of those movies that's really only funny if you know the source material.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

The Wedding Singer...even own it on DVD just never gotten around to watching it.

Also Platoon.

[GRIFT]

I've never seen Psycho.

[Mattman]

Diehard... all of them.

[EddieRuckus]

Same here, need to watch all of the Diehard films. Also need to get around to watching Death Proof(watched Planet Terror), Back to the Future II(it's the only one I haven't watched recently all the way through), Boondock Saints, and probably numerous others. Hell, I didn't even watch Shawshank Redemption until Christmas Break, which was unacceptable to my ex who made me watch it.

[The Quasi Juice]

Diehard... all of them.

And Top Gun. Don't feel like I'm missing much really.

[Liam]

Diehard... all of them.

And Top Gun. Don't feel like I'm missing much really.

Just the most homo-erotic film of all time >_>

I've got loads of films that I should see, mostly because I've bought them and they are gathering dust

[Psicosis]

Chinatown. Got the dvd sitting there with a big sticker saying "Watch Me!", but I just haven't got around to it yet.

and Annie Hall.

[Farmer Reil]

Back To The Future. That's probably the only one that sticks out as being embarrassing to admit that I haven't seen it.

[GA!]

Quite a few films from the so-called 'film brats in the 1970s and the Back to the Future trilogy.

[Skummy]

I don't think I've seen Back To The Future either.

And while I don't consider these films I "should" see, it's a regular talking point with a few of my friends that I've never seen any of the following: Snow White, Aladdin, Peter Pan, The Little Mermaid, Cinderella, Pinnochio, Dumbo, Bambi, Lady And The Tramp, Sleeping Beauty, 101 Dalmations, The Jungle Book, Aristocats, The Fox & The Hound, Beauty And The Beast, Mulan, Pocahontas, Hercules.

So, yeah, I'm fairly Disney-less.

[SRN]

The Big Lebowski. Also, until recently, I had not seen or even remotely heard with The Matrix: Revolutions was about. But then I just bought the whole set with all three DVD's and saw them through in one setting. I*m guilty of the Diehard thing too. Throw Rambo in there as well.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

Natural Born Killers (towards the top of my "DVD's to watch pile" thats sitting at the side of me), Se7en (which is towards the bottom of said pile), pretty much any old Woody Allen film, Donnie Darko, or any of the Lethal Weapon movies. They're the main ones.

EDIT - Add The Good the Bad and the Ugly, Jaws, Blade (not properly, I've seen little bits) and there was something else I thought of that I REALLY should watch, but I've gone and forgotten what it was again...

Dude, forget all the others. That's the ultimate Disney film.

Anyway I've been told I really need to see more classics like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. I'm guilty of the Rambo series too even though I see it for 10 bucks the other day and didn't pick it up.

[Future-Shock]

The Godfather and Scarface. I've just never had a real interest in seeing them.
