Which films do people rave about but you've never seen?

Question

I've never seen the films Titanic, The Godfather or Scarface and people seem to be amazed that I haven't.

Clockwork Orange was on the other night, what a right old mish mash of a film that was. Watched 5 minutes and switched over!

I've also not seen Pulp Fiction or Reservoir Dogs.

Answer 1

Yep, Titanic, rather proud that I have never seen it - the ship sinks, apparently.

I've also never seen Gone With The Wind, frankly I just don't give a damn.

Answer 2

I haven't seen the movies you mentioned either. I've probably seen glimpses of it but never actually sat down, watched while totally immensed by it. Maybe some people were just trying to join the bandwagon and claim that they've seen the films but in reality, they haven't? When Titanic was released, I knew a lot of people watched it, told me the plot, the story, so I just felt why bother watching. I didn't feel like watching it in the first place. I remember I was going to watch The Godfather trilogy all in one night but it just didn't go through, so is Scarface. Oh well.

Answer 3

I haven't seen The Godfather or Scarface or even Psycho. I have not seen any of the Pirates of the Carribbean movies either. I'm sure it is a great movie. The Lord of the Rings - never seen the movie or read the book.

I just feel like most movies are jut too predictable and stupid. most can be figured out in just a few seconds, Hollywood is appealing to the masses that are way too amazed by something stupid. the emotions that they try to convey are 2 dimensional at best. To me I just plain old do not enjoy movies that glorify the mob, or are about a poor boy rich girl, or a rich boy trying to get the poor girl, movies that the director tries to act in (hey Quentin read this....also Costner),
Spielberg movies because someone always dies or seems to die and then comes back, any movie that the masses say oh yeah it was actually like that when i was in high school, and Nicholas cage movies just because PEOPLE THE MAN CANNOT ACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

I've not seen The Godfather or The Deer Stalker.
Just don't appeal really. I only recently watched Clockwork Orange and what a load of rubbish. I thought it was going to be something amazing but it was just gratuitous violence.

Answer 7

I have successfully managed to avoid Titanic, Easy Rider, Taxi Driver, Legally Blonde, Bridget Jones, most of the modern romcoms. I've only seen bits of the Godfather and Scarface as they bored the crap out of me.

Answer 8

Trainspotting
The Shawshank Redemption
The old classics eg Casablanca, Gone with the Wind
Taxi Driver
Raging Bull

Answer 9

I agree with you. I think every little punk who think he's tough (the ghetto kids especially) seem to like "Scarface", I think it's entirely overrated, I never seen it. The Godfather I've never seen either and I don't want to. To me lately it seems "The Hills Have Eyes" is the new one that people rave on and on about. I'm sorry, even if that movie is good, I wouldn't want to see it. I hate remakes! Usually when people rave about something that's when I raise my red flag. I don't have to see everything that everyone else has. I want to see what I choose to.

Answer 10

Still haven't seen Scarface or Pulp fiction!!! Actually... Hmmm....
*Thinks for a moment*
Movie night sounds good:)
