The whole Hunger Games phenomenon has reminded me that I have a long-running "streak" of sorts: I have avoided all of the top-grossing movies of the past 20+ years. Here's a list of movies that I HAVEN'T seen and have no intention of seeing:

The Hunger Games
Any of the Twilight movies
Any of the Harry Potter movies
Avatar
Titanic
Any of the Jurassic Park movies
Any Star Wars movie made after 1977
Any animated movies by Disney or Pixar

Sorry, I'm not just not into the big Hollywood blockbuster. What about you?

    LOL I am so not a movie person. My husband cringes at the thought that I have never seen...

    ANY Star Wars movies
    ANY Twilight Movies
    ANY animated movies by Disney or Pixar
    Avatar
    The Hunger Games
    ET
    Thelma and Louise
    The Princess Bride (Hubby's favorite!)
    Anything with Vin Diesel
    Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

    Ok, the list would really be much too long. It would probably be easier to list what I HAVE seen. haha

    Edit: Had to add one!

    I've never seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off. That fact scandalizes most people I know.

    Avatar was really cool visually, but the movie itself was blah.

    All those films suck, apart from the first jurassic park.

    You really should give pixar a go though, even though they're disney films they're pretty deep and creative, and wonderful really.

    Wall-e is great, seen Up! once and it broke my heart (never cried so much over a movie), and the toy story films are great (I'd say the third is the best but you have to watch the first two to get the benefit from it).

    There's loads of great pixar films really, you should watch their documentary they made fairly recently, they look like some awesome people :L


    eta: Huge disney film, favourites are lion king, little mermaid, the hunchback of notre dame, and I love Mulan and how it changes the disney princess thing. (Just realised none of my favourite disneys are little girly princess films!)

    any of the Godfather movies. or Gone with the Wind. some of the major classics. and any Cheech and Chong film - not necessarily a classic, but still get some odd looks about it given who my set of friends were after school.

    I'm not particularly up on pop culture, but I have seen most of those on the list one way or another. I haven't and probably won't see the Hunger Games, saw the first Twilight (hooray for $1 Redbox Rentals), and I've seen through Harry Potter movie 5. You are SOOOOOOOOOOOO Lucky on avoiding Avatar. I was dragged to it kicking and screaming on December 23rd after Christmas Shopping. Titanic is hilarious. Star Wars is pretty classic, at least the original series, even though I'm more of a Trekkie, and Toy Story, Toy Story 2 (didn't want to cry with 3...) and Cars are fantastic.

    with you on the Pixar thing. The only Pixar movie I can do without, and would be generally happy watching it burn and shrivel up into ash is Cars 2. That movie was... painful. I admit there were some funny parts, but I was bored halfway through the movie. You are never supposed to get bored through a Pixar movie. Ever. Saw it at home with the GF though, so that was a payoff I guess.

    Excited about their two projects in the works, Monsters Inc. 2 and an untitled project where humans and dinosaurs evolved together, rather than dinosaurs dying out. Based on a kids book I think.

    You have to see Saving Private Ryan and Pitch Black. Diesel's best pictures.

    Totally agree. Avatar was Dances with Wolves with great visual effects.
