Ok, lets hear some movies that you're almost ashamed to tell others that you've never seen. Movies that when you tell someone you've never seen it, they look at you weird.

I have a few.

1. E.T. Sorry, I've tried to get through it, and I always fall asleep in the first 10 minutes. This movie is like Nyquil for me.

2. Lord of the Rings. None of them. I tried to watch the first one, but the whole damn movie was about some short guy running through a forest. Needless to say, I've never seen 2 minutes of any of the other movies.

Lets hear yours.

WOW. Never seen Spiderman or Titanic????

Funny you mention Iron Man. I've never seen it either and my wife actually brought it home today from Blockbuster. Maybe I'll watch it tomorrow.

I haven't seen the last "Transformers" movie. I'm usually pretty good about catching most major movies at some point or another though.

That's pretty wild that we already have a couple of people that have never seen the LoTR movies. Those are such greatness. All 3 of them would go in my top 10 of all time. Seriously.

I'd prefer a documentary over the movie. Tacking on a cheesy teenage love story doesn't help.

Pretty much all of the oscar winners over the last few years.

If the critics love it I pretty much know I won't care to see it.

I would normally agree with you, except the cinematography was incredible. The sets were amazing. It really gave you a feeling like you were on the ship.

this movie was amazing...

it is not a cheesy love story trust me.

it is based on actual events with a very good love story weaved in.

bb...you got to see this movie bro.




my family and i got to see the titanic exhibit in july.

seeing some of the things we have seen on the documentaries in person was heavy on the chest.

Then don't watch, cause your powers are useless against his man-hunk skills.

Anytime I pass it on TV, I find myself watching it for a while. I don't like how they put the present day stuff in with the old lady in it. They should have just kept it in one time period. Other than that though, it ain't bad.

Haven't seen "Temple of Doom" in its entirety either. Wish I hadn't seen the last Indy movie at all.

Add me to the no "E.T." list.

Others:
--Any of the Rocky movies (boxing is not my cup of tea)
--Anything Rambo (maybe I just don't dig Stallone?)
--Jaws
--Poltergeist
--Exorcist
--Moulin Rouge--the most ridiculous piece of dreck I have ever tried to watch.

I've made an effort to watch some of the ones I missed that are part of popular culture like these (Apocalypse Now, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and the like), but I have no interest in any of the above.

I saw Titanic in a London movie theater that held about the same number of people as were on the ship. When the lights came up, you could get a very powerful visual of just how many people didn't make it. Very powerful stuff.
