what popular movie(s) have you never actually seen from start to finish?

[fizzgig]

i've never seen fight club all the way through. i started to watch it on nye maybe 10 years ago but wound up making out with the cute guy next to me. i've seen snippets of it here and there over the years, but never all the way through.

i'm also dubious as to whether i've seen all three original star wars all the way through. i know i've watched one of them in full, but i couldn't even tell you which one.

haven't seen all of temple of doom or raiders of the lost ark, either.

1. The Exorcist

Jaws and lots of popular films from the 60s &70s

[fizzgig]

2. i saw the exorcist in the theater when it was re-released

put that on my list of movies i'm never going to watch again.

i saw about five minutes of jaws when i was five or so. i am absolutely terrified of sharks and i live in a land-locked state.

3. The first rule of movies have you never actually seen from start to finish is...

[fizzgig]

5. ....

[KMOD]

4. I have never watched any of the Star Wars movies,

and I only watched The Godfather trilogy 2 year ago.

[fizzgig]

7. i've never seen any of the godfather movies

i haven't seen a lot of movies, i don't have patience for movies. i am astoundingly cinematically ignorant.

[pinboy3niner]

8. I knew it was you, KMOD...

[KatyaR]

6. The Princess Bride.

I've tried at least half a dozen times, but I can't make it through even five minutes.

[fizzgig]

9. that is one of my favorite movies

i won't judge you too harshly

10. The Color Purple. I started watching and my electricity went off. Every time I tried to

watch it, something like that happened. I tried recording it and the tape broke (back when we had tape.) Two or three other times I tried and something interrupted - I finally figured that I was not meant to watch "The Color Purple."

[fizzgig]

11. another movie on the list of movies i've never seen

i vaguely remember a few scenes from my parents watching it on tv, but that's it.

[Coventina]

12. Independence Day, Jurassic Park (any of them), Titanic, Avatar, Hunger Games (any of them)

Seen bits and pieces of all of the above, but none have been able to catch my interest to sit through the whole thing.

[a la izquierda]

13. ET, Top Gun, Breakfast Club...

Well, pretty much anything from the 1980s that is "good."

[fizzgig]

21. i've only see bits and pieces of the breakfast club

never seen a brat pack movie in full.

[mrmpa]

14. I have never seen either of these 2 movies in full.

The Deerhunter and 2001 A Space Odyssey I saw the first 5 minutes of a Space Odyssey and about the first half hour of the Deerhunter

[bigwillq]

15. I started to watch one of the Harry Potter movies

Turned it off like 15 minutes in. Did not interest me at all. Not a fan of those types of movies. Never saw any of the Lord of the Rings movies either.

[riderinthestorm]

16. Titanic, Platoon (walked out of that one as Dafoe is getting run down)

oh Brother Where Art Thou - that one was just boring for me and I headed upstairs to bed, no desire to ever watch it, Dr Zhivago, Gone With The Wind, Citizen Kane...

I can't seem to get thru horror movies either. I did watch Underworld start to finish but most of them just don't rock my socks.

[hippywife]

17. Most all of them made

in the past 10 years. Hasn't been much that's drawn my interest in pop culture in that time, really. So I would say I never even started watching them, and hence couldn't have made it to the end, either.

[sharp_stick]

18. Out Of Africa

I've tried watching it 3 or 4 times and fall asleep each and every time.

[Fearless]

19. Any of the Godfather movies.

The new LOTR series.

[IrishEyes]

20. The Godfather Films

I read the book when I was 12 but I've never seen the Godfather or the two sequels.

I haven't see most of the films that have won the academy awards in the last twenty years or so.

I love westerns and have seen a lot of old and new ones but I have only watched one John Wayne film. I just can't stand him.

I have never seen any of the Fast and the Furious films but I'm curious to watch one. I have no idea how they made seven of those films. The plot seems kind of thin for even one film.

Looking over everyone else's list, I have seen a lot of the films other people haven't seen.

[Populist_Prole]

22. The Godfather, for one

'Taken'. Atrocious sap-fest that made me about throw up in my mouth, the parts I was forced to endure at a girl friend's behest.

'Borat'. So bad I just couldn't watch more than 45 minutes of it.

[oldandhappy]

23. Almost any of them!

giggle. Not much of one for movies. Do like documentaries.

[hopemountain]

24. avatar.

ugh.

[Inkfreak]

26. I wish I could claim the same, lol. (nt)

[Paper Roses]

25. Chariots of Fire. I seem to be the only one who thought it was boring. n/t

[femmocrat]

27. Saving Private Ryan.

When it is on, I always "plan" to watch it, but something else usually distracts me.

[Populist_Prole]

33. First 30 minutes or so is great

Graphic; well done. After that it's just 90-ish minutes of jingoistic saccharine.

[Special Prosciuto]

28. Star Wars or any sequals.

[avebury]

29. Guardians of the Galaxy

I made it maybe 20 minutes into and no further.

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

30. Hobbits, LOTR, half of the Star Wars movies...

...half of the Star Trek movies. I kind of wish I'd never seen any of the Godfather movies (really boring). Not as boring as the Raging Bull but close. Titanic, Avatar, Hunger Games never seen any except I saw older versions of Titanic.

No to Seven Samurai, 12 Angry Men, Cool Hand Luke, The Deer Hunter, Citizen Kane or It's a Wonderful Life.

[kairos12]

31. The Sound of Music.

[Initech]

32. My Cousin Vinnie, the Blues Brothers

Although I plan to remedy the Blues Brothers this weekend, and My Cousin Vinnie I've only seen from like 1/2 way through on.
