Blockbuster movies you've never seen.

[CF74]

Star Trek, they all bore me and there's no shame here.

 

[CF74]

Add Harry Potter, boooorrrring.....

 

[Achozen]

Any Terminator movie...

 

[mldardy]

Top Gun - never got the hype of it. I have seen bits and pieces but never the whole thing. Eagle and Maverick and Hawkeye and cats climbing on trees and ish. WHo cares

Harry Potter series - saw the first movie and fell asleep halfway through it. BOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG

Edit - I didn't see that some post the exact same thing about Potter. LOL.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

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

Michael Moore.:

DAMN, after reading through this thread so far I feel like the biggest nerd/geek in history. I love LOTR, Star Trek, Star Wars, Indiana Jones and Harry Potter. :

Haven't seen the second National Treasure movie. I really enjoyed the first one though, so I'm sure I'll get around to watching the second one sooner or later.

It was terrible; not nearly as enjoyable as the original.

 

[kmp77]

I watch way too many movies. I've seen every one listed in this thread so far.

I guess one I haven't seen is the 2nd "new" Bond movie.

While I don't think it's as good as the original I still thought it was pretty fun.

I honestly can't think of a blockbuster from the last 20 years or so that I haven't seen.

 

[mldardy]

It was terrible; not nearly as enjoyable as the original.

I feel the same will happen with Angels and Demons(the sequel to Davinci Code). Although the first one wasn't all that. It just seems unnecessary to make a sequel to these types of movies.

 

[vta]

If Dark Knight is on this list, I guess that'll be my first in a while as I Netfilx'd it and will be watching it within the hour.

I've never watched the Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter stuff; saw Star Wars when it was new, but haven't watched the Lucas nonsense that followed.

Regretfully, I did see Titanic in the theater with my wife, but since then, I can pretty much say if it's a blockbuster, I haven't seen it.

I'd just as soon, pop in a Kubrick DVD and watch that for entertainment.

Great thread. For reference, here's the list of the 100 highest grossing films of all time (adjusted for inflation).

Titanic. (Already knew the boat was going to sink )

Almost all blockbusters within the last few years, with exceptions for the last Star Wars movie, the last 2 James Bond movies, and the last Indiana Jones movie.

 

[burmafrd]

Have not been to a movie in years.
And have not bothered to watch a lot of these so called blockbusters when they come on TV either, let alone video.
The first Star wars triology; and most of the older movies from the 80's and earlier (Except E.T.>always thought it was dumb and never had any interest)
are the ones I have seen. Jurassic Park was probably the last blockbuster I went to the Theatre to see. Pretty much nothing after that.

And how did you know it sank if you didn't watch the movie??

I might be #2 then. I have seen all of them listed in this thread also and like couple of posters have already said. I wish I hadn't seen the last Indiana Jones movie.

 

[kmp77]

The stupid spoilers were leaked in history books. Stupid history class ruined the movie for me

 

[Chief]

[lewpac]

I never saw "Shindler's List", but from what I gather it's at the top of most "experts" lists of "greatest movies of all time".

Citizen Kane is another one I'd like to see someday..................

 

[EveryoneElse]

Never saw any of these:

Star Wars(none of the newer or older movies)

Harry Potter

Indiana Jones

Lord of the rings

Shrek

Last Cartoon movie I saw was the Lion King. I'm 25 years old and I can't see why most people my age actually like watching these new animated movies.

Of the list that was posted of the top 100 movies, I think I've seen less than 15 of them.
