Famous movie you're almost embarrassed to say you haven't seen?

Journeyman · Sep 20, 2007

There are many I have not seen, that would probably be surprising, so many I probably can't even think of them all.

I never saw E.T. and I think that was pretty popular at the time.

Never saw Private Ryan, couldn't get past the first scene.

Buster · Sep 20, 2007

never saw e.t. or any of the star wars or star treks,batmans,spidermans,never saw schindlers list.... come to think of it?as a matter of fact it would probably be easier for me to name the ones i have seen!

so i give up

Haven't seen the first Godfather. Actually, maybe I just don't remember it. No, pretty sure I've never seen it.

shdw01 · Sep 20, 2007

I've never seen:

any Godfather movie
Scarface
Titanic
Private Ryan
Napoleon Dynamite
all old movies (Casablanca and those black and white ones)

I cant think of any real famous movies I have never seen. But movies and video games are 2 of my favorite hobbys, so I wont miss much.

It blows my mind everytime someone says they havent seen any of the star wars movies.

Dances with wolves and The Hunt for red october, LOTR and Potter movies. Thats about all I got.

Famous movie you're almost embarrassed to say you haven't seen?
