Oh, how I love movie lists, because it always makes me realize how many movies I haven't seen. Which also makes me kind of hate movie lists. What, movie list, do you think I'm made of time?!?
Ahem.
Here's a list of the 25 Best Movies You've Never Seen and yeah, they're right, because I've only seen 3 and a half* of them. Which is odd, because this list is full of the kinds of movies I usually end up watching when I'm not watching the kinds of movies that are on the "100 best movies of the century" lists. OK, time to add a bunch more movies to the queue.
* Some of you may know about the part of my job that involves fast-forwarding through movies. I've done that with Bully.

Much to my own surprise, I've seen 10 of them. About 5 were terrible. I wouldn't feel too bad.

I mostly ignore movie lists. Just don't watch too many movies. Not enough patience to sit through them.
Saw exactly one on this list, but would like to see several others. Looks like some good ideas for winter...

I've seen six of these movies, and one of them multiple times!! Time After Time, one of my favorites, is good for more than one viewing. Falling Down is a good movie, too. Heavenly Creatures, kind of scary, but thought provoking. Buckeroo Banzai, wasn't impressed, but I may need to revisit it. Another movie that I would add,though, is Happy, Texas, hands down one of my favorite movies ever!!! I could watch it every night, which for a while, I practically did!

I've seen 2 of them. And I HATED Igby Goes Down. Hanson and I watched it one Thanksgiving (highlights of the day: pizza rolls and Down By Law), and we were pissed that we did.
