Classic movies that you have never seen...

[Man In Space]

I must admit that I have never seen the following movies, and I feel like I am the only one.

Rocky
Caddyshack
Airplane
Casablanca

...and until about a month ago, I had never seen a James Bond film (I've since seen two - Dr. No and From Russia With Love.)

I'm sure that there's more, but these are some of the classics that always seem to pop up in conversation and I feel lame for not having seen them.

Anyone care to confess to their own?

Bladerunner. And I have no intention of seeing it, either.

gone with the wind
an entire john wayne movie
rebel without a cause
giant
cat on a hot tin roof

terms of endearment
and i haven't been able to sit past the first 1/2 hour of citizen kane

I have never seen airplane, caddyshack or the godfather. I feel like the only person on the planet who hasn't seen them when others talk about them.

caddyshack is overrated. the godfather is one of the best movies ever made.

Rebel without a Cause
Singing in the Rain

but I've made it a matter of discipline to work through AFI's top 100 - I'm behind.

I've watched Bladerunner four times now, and never once have I made it through without falling asleep. I don't usually make it an hour. I just find it so very boring.

Count me among those who have never seen any of the Godfather movies, or Scarface.

This only strengthens my resolve.

I saw Scarface for the first time last week. It's OK.

Love Godfather I (prefer) and II for acting and cinematography. Not overrated IMHO.

As much as I enjoy Caddyshack and Airplane, I'd have a hard time placing them on a list of "classic" movies. Now Deep Throat... that's another story.

I've never watched to the conclusion: Citizen Kane, On the Waterfront, Giant or Rebel Without a Cause. I don't know that I ever will.

 

[Quirk]

Never seen...
Star Wars
E.T.
Any more than 30 minutes of any Godfather
Any James Dean
Any John Wayne

Yeah. Classics? I think I might have seen Airplane once, but maybe not all the way through, but never have and never will see Caddyshack.

I'm pretty much cinematically marsupialed, so I haven't seen most classic movies and am not really even aware of their existence, so it's hard to name them.

Breakfast at Tiffany's seems to get referenced a lot, and I've never seen that. I caught a scene from The Maltese Falcon once on TV and would like to see the whole thing.

ET
Citizen Cane
Breakfast at Tiffany's
any John Wayne
Rocky

I will never see ET or Rocky. Actually, for no particular reason, I was thinking yesterday about how I have successfully avoided seeing these movies for all these years.
