Title: Movies You're Ashamed To Admit You've Never Seen
Post by: Busted on April 11, 2013, 08:55:52 pm
What movie(s) are you ashamed to admit that you've never seen?

I have never seen all of The Matrix films. I thought the first was a little bizarre, and just didn't make it past that one.
I have never seen Clerks, Clerks II, Dogma, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, or Mallrats. I like Kevin Smith, but some of his stuff gets on my nerves. Case in point: I HATE the show Comic Book Men. KS is okay, but it's the other guys that ruin it for me. Jersey Girl, Cop Out, and Zack & Miri were decent, not great.
I have never seen 300. I have heard it's an incredible film, and plan to watch it very soon. Just haven't made the time yet.

No longer than fifteen minutes of the original Star Wars, and none of the rest.  I found it incredibly boring.

Same applies to the Godfather series.

I have seen just about everything starting with the 80's. In high school I was known as the guy who knew what every movie was about. There are some older, well known movies I have not seen such as Ben Hur, The Ten Commandments, and the Godfather trilogy. There are others but that is what comes to mind.

I haven't seen a lot of movies in the last about 8 years unless they were animated or kid friendly.  We used to go to the movies all the time BK.  (before kid). Now, we rarely go unless it is a kid movie.  Don't even watch them on DVD.  We are pitiful.

I have forgotten what real TV is also! LOL.  We have watched every kid movie, cartoon etc that seems like has been made.   Oh well...I have enjoyed seeing my son like certain movies.   Cars and Toy Story 3 made great gifts. :)

What movie(s) are you ashamed to admit that you've never seen?

I'll help you out with your lists below:


QuoteI have never seen all of The Matrix films. I thought the first was a little bizarre, and just didn't make it past that one.

Pretty good call.  THe other 2 Matrix movies were lots of CGI and action and pretty much zero substance.  You know how Keanu looks when he's dumbfounded?  Yeah, that's pretty much a microcosm of the plot for the rest of the Matrix series.

QuoteI have never seen Clerks, Clerks II, Dogma, Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, or Mallrats. I like Kevin Smith, but some of his stuff gets on my nerves. Case in point: I HATE the show Comic Book Men. KS is okay, but it's the other guys that ruin it for me. Jersey Girl, Cop Out, and Zack & Miri were decent, not great.

Clerks and Mallrats are must-watch.  Especially Mallrats.  The humor in those movies are a comparable to something like Arrested Development - subtle in some cases with a few running gags throughout.  It's hard to explain.

QuoteI have never seen 300. I have heard it's an incredible film, and plan to watch it very soon. Just haven't made the time yet.

Being a female, you would enjoy 300.  And I'm not saying that as stereotyping.  For example, my wife is a pretty intelligent move-watcher, and all she talked about afterwards was Gerard Butler's abs.  She was impressed by all the Spartans.  Heck, I was impressed by the Spartans (no homo).  It's a pretty good escapist movie - not a whole lot of plot, but a lot of great action.

Women liked 300 for the same reason they flocked to see Magic Mike.

I would include all the ones Busted mentioned to open the thread. Those are some bad movies. I have never seen Schindler's List either. Something about it being in black and white that makes me not want to see it. Or as my son would say its grey.

This week I have watched:
Magic Mike. Hated it!  Two hours of my life i will never get back.
Secondhand Lions: fabulous movie!  Can't wait to watch it again!
The Rainmaker:  good but not great. I do love grisham's novels.
Now You See Me:  LOVED IT!!!  Soooo good!  Totally surprising end.
Pollack:  good movie. Excellent acting.  He was a truly disturbed man.

While it is not my favorite movie, for some reason I'll watch repeatedly as well.  I have no idea why this is...

A guess (and it is only that) is that Money Ball was a departure from the standard Hollywood action/end of world/blow something up flick that is all too common these days.

I agree that some movies you just sit there wondering if they will ever end....that's usually when I leave half way through it.   I won't torture myself to finish a bad or boring movie usually.

After watching it, I'm a little confused as to how this one is considered an excellent movie.  It was pedestrian, had a few laughs, zany plot, but generally boring.
