Famous movies everyone's seen, but you haven't

Whether you think cinema died with Hitchcock or only got good once Michael Bay started blowing up helicopters, this is the place where moving pictures are discussed.

    Lord of the Rings and quite a few Disney movies are the major ones for me. Everyone talks about crying over Bambi and I just sit there nonplussed. I clearly had a deprived childhood...
    Bambi isn't very good past childhood, but that might just be me. The best Disney movies are Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King. Have you seen them?

    All of the Godfather films,
    Apocolypse Now
    I've tried to watch The Matrix a few times but never finish it, I kept falling asleep I think

    Only recently got massively into films, I'll be watching these bad boys no doubt. I haven't seen Avatar either but it really doesn't appeal. I'm sure I'll get round to it at some point though.

    I could probably list all the films I have ever watched. There are only about 20, possibly less. I just don't really like them. The thought of a movie evening makes me feel ill.

    I have never seen Titanic, and have no intention of ever seeing it. Also I had quite happily never seen Moulin Rouge until about a month ago and now wish I had never seen it. :P

    LOTR is amazing! And I love Shrek 1 and 2!

    The others, however, I will agree with.

    I don't blame you, The Matrix is boring. Got to be one of the most overrated films.

    I feel like I missed something vital in that movie. I hated it. I'm not sure what it was about it; it wasn't the style, because I found Four Rooms much better.
    But, it's so well written!
