"Must see" movies you haven't seen

Pretty much all of them. I'm so behind. I don't think I have ever seen an Oscar winning movie in the year it was nominated. Except when it is a kids' movie.0

The Godfather
Scarface
Casablanca
The Shawshank Redemption
I just saw The Phantom of the Opera and Silence of the Lambs for the first time a couple weeks ago. Course, I had already read both, but still...0 -
I've never seen The Godfather.
Amazing movie.Grease
A Clockwork Orange
Blade Runner
Same, especially Blade Runner. A masterclass in cinematography.Titanic
That space station movie that just came out with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney
The Twilight movies
I'm sure there's others, those immediately come to mind.
Titanic is pretty good, the first half is interesting and after the ship hits the iceberg it gets pretty intense.
I liked Gravity, it's an intense movie, shot well with nice effects. Very well done for only having 2 actors. I enjoyed it even though I don't really like Bullock but I do like Clooney and most of his movies (except The American, worst movie of all time).
Twilight movies ughThe Shawshank Redemption. I must be the only person in the world who hasn't seen it.
Incredible movie. Not #1 on IMDB by mistake. Interesting that it all came from a short Stephen King story titled "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption" In the book, Morgan Freeman's character 'Red' is a white guy!The Godfather
Any of the Saw movies
The Hangover
Ocean's 11, 12, 13, 72, 133
Citizen Kane
Any of the Harry Potter movies (though I LOVE the books)
Psycho
Casablanca
2001 A Space Odyssey
West Side Story
Blade Runner
Godfather, Kane, Psycho, Casablanca, 2001, West Side Story and Blade Runner are must-see's. Hangover is pretty funny if the personalities don't annoy the hell out of you. Ocean's movies are OK. I like Harry Potter a lot myself. Well casted and directed + the music was done by John Williams who did the likes of Star Wars and E.T.0 -
When I was in 8th grade our English class had the choice of 2 assignments: read and see The Outsiders and write a paper about the book vs the movie, or read Romeo and Juliet and compare it to West Side Story. Already a budding classicist, I chose option B and never felt the need to see The Outsiders. Now that I'm 45, friends my age will occasionally make a reference to it that I don't get then stare at me incredulously when I say I've never seen it. And again, being 45, I kind of don't want to now. Except to get them off my back.0

I have friends, some younger than me, who are obsessed with that movie. And I'm 21! Never had any inclination to see it myself.0 -

The Sound of Music
Several of 'the classics' - Citizen Kane, Casablanca, North by Northwest, etc.0 -
The Shawshank Redemption. I must be the only person in the world who hasn't seen it.
That's my all-time favorite movie!
One of the other posts in here reminded me of another I haven't seen... The Big Lebowski. I still hear about it all the time, but have never seen it.0 -
Fantastic film. Wouldn't say it's a 'must see' though.0

Ever watch movies everyone seems to love and be like "eh...not that good".
More specifically, I'm thinking of Goonies. Though I did wait until I was 27 to watch it, I was expecting so much more based on peoples claims about the film.
A few of the movies I've never seen:
ET
Indiana Jones
Rocky
Goodfellas
Apocalypse Now
I wouldn't mind watching some of these, just never got around to it.0 -
Do NOT BOTHER with 2001: A Space Odyssey. It is a huge waste of time. I want those 2 hours of my life back.
never seen the Big Lebowski either.0 -
The Godfather
Star Wars (any of them)
Scarface
The Notebook
Footloose
The Shawshank Redemption
Any of the Rocky movies
Casablanca
A Clockwork Orange0 -

Me toooo... Do people look at you like you're reaking nuts or something when you tell them that?? ....0

I inally did see Cinderella Man a couple weeks ago.. Avoided it or years .. sounded dumb to me.....it was pretty good!0
-
I do like Clooney and most of his movies (except The American, worst movie of all time).
SMH
Incorrect! (jk) Burn After Reading is the worst movie of all time. Or Batman and Robin or yea, the American...There's a pattern forming. Despite his good movies Clooney has a lot of movies that could make a "Worst of all-time" list.0 -
Ancorman
Green mile
Godfather trilogy
Shawshank Redemption0
