I thought the purpose of this thread was just to list famous films those posting have not seen, not to make value judgments. See, one could turn on the above statement by pointing out how "disturbing" it is that its author hasn't seen the films he has listed.
Some of the other posts contain disturbing comments too. I always thought that one would prefer to show off his or her knowledge, instead of making near-celebratory statements about having no desire to see any films made before 1960. As Walter points out, you're only telling the world how self-limiting your preferences are.
But that's your choice. Just remember that in order to understand how film came to be as it is today, it sure helps to know what has come before. (I hear a lot of "youth" in this thread.)
Don't you know what they say about assumptions, Jack?
Anyway, I was only joking about that...I didn't REALLY mean I was disturbed. Next time, I'll put a smiley just to make sure you get it. And was I, by saying that I was 'disturbed' about a few members not having seen Bond movies, subconsiously saying that "having no desire to see any films made before 1960"? Computer armchair psychologist indeed. FYI, I am interested in "what has come before". I am amazed how much you extracted in my viewing habits with one sentence. ONE!
Well, I have seen:
Rebecca
Ben Hur
Spartacus
Cleopatra (I even own this)
Most Hitchcock movies.
Do you have any suggestions for me, Jack? I dont mean this to be mean, but I'm always looking for a decent title.
Excuse the rant, but I wanted to clear the air about things. Carry on.
