My main one... Michael Send a noteboard - 28/10/2010 09:48:10 AM
is Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful life. I want to watch it. I bought it on DVD a couple of years ago. But my brain, somewhere along the line, keeps reading it as Franz Kafka's It's a Wonderful Life. And I think that's a movie I would like to watch more

Real reason is that my wife has seen it and didn't like it, so I need to get a night in December when the kids are in bed and my wife is either out or busy elsewhere and I'll get round to watching it.
The Monday Cafe - open when I damn well feel like it

I blame Alric

Which classic / famous / beloved films have you not seen? ironclad - 26/10/2010 09:46:38 PM 1408 Views
Too many to list Stephen - 27/10/2010 01:31:01 AM 912 Views
I remember a top 100 list posted a while back BlackAdder - 28/10/2010 05:27:44 PM 1108 Views
Those last two are inexcusable. No wonder the Von Trapps were fleeing from your people. TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 02:14:56 AM 974 Views
A lot. It's that anti-hype thing. nossy - 27/10/2010 03:27:00 AM 969 Views
Found a better list. nossy - 27/10/2010 03:31:53 AM 1033 Views
Watch them, now. *NM* jh - 27/10/2010 06:51:25 AM 450 Views
Psh, better ironclad - 27/10/2010 09:09:27 AM 983 Views
Pft, where's your list? nossy - 28/10/2010 07:23:48 PM 782 Views
I wouldn't be able to make a list that contains "important" stuff that means nothing to me ironclad - 28/10/2010 08:36:39 PM 968 Views

Perhaps Palatine - 28/10/2010 05:10:48 PM 960 Views
I don't like Woody Allen either, but I'm not sure I've given him a chance. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:10:17 PM 944 Views
Unlike the two haters above, I actually rather liked Sunset Boulevard. Legolas - 27/10/2010 07:59:30 PM 1031 Views
I've got two or more votes for it. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:11:19 PM 1018 Views
Yeah, and the two votes against it haven't actually seen it, so... Legolas - 28/10/2010 08:57:17 PM 984 Views
Singin' in the Rain Rebekah - 28/10/2010 10:45:08 AM 947 Views
Um, I'm not kidding at all that I'll take you up on that. We'll send the boys out. *NM* nossy - 28/10/2010 08:14:14 PM 568 Views
Excellent. Rebekah - 28/10/2010 08:34:58 PM 879 Views
How can you not have seen Singing In The Rain? You should watch it tonight Mark - 28/10/2010 03:36:29 PM 997 Views
I can't. I have to wait until I'm in Scotland. nossy - 28/10/2010 08:39:33 PM 897 Views
Well as long as you watch it Mark - 29/10/2010 02:45:19 PM 915 Views
And about these... Legolas - 28/10/2010 09:09:11 PM 1107 Views
I watched half of Blade Runner a couple of weeks ago and then got bored. Darth_Katie - 27/10/2010 03:43:47 AM 923 Views
I've tried to watch it 3 times now :/ *NM* Deadsy - 27/10/2010 08:35:31 AM 469 Views
What's wrong with you people? *NM* ironclad - 27/10/2010 09:10:02 AM 481 Views
In their defense, Blade Runner is kinda boring by today's film standards. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:31:07 PM 518 Views
For me, the one that always gets people is Braveheart. Craig - 27/10/2010 03:46:33 AM 967 Views
postponing that one to the next century is a good idea. *NM* jh - 27/10/2010 06:52:03 AM 395 Views
Yeah, you're not missing that much... it's fun, and spectacular, but mostly just a popcorn movie. *NM* Legolas - 27/10/2010 08:00:04 PM 493 Views
Don't watch it. It is appalling. Rebekah - 28/10/2010 10:46:53 AM 972 Views
Okay, now I gotta step in and say: One of the most enthralling and best films of the 90s *NM* ironclad - 29/10/2010 05:14:22 PM 500 Views
Jar-Jar-lover. *NM* jh - 29/10/2010 11:00:35 PM 467 Views
Preach it. *NM* Rebekah - 29/10/2010 11:12:03 PM 522 Views
In all seriousness ironclad - 29/10/2010 11:22:47 PM 791 Views
Fair enough. Rebekah - 29/10/2010 11:29:51 PM 835 Views
I liked it a lot, not sure if it's one of the best of the 90s though. BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 02:20:17 AM 1090 Views
It surprising because it's still aired on TV fairly frequently BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 02:16:41 AM 1151 Views
Who wants to watch a movie with commercials? Craig - 30/10/2010 03:55:25 AM 900 Views
I liked it. nossy - 30/10/2010 05:49:14 PM 792 Views
You are messed up snoopcester - 27/10/2010 10:37:37 AM 970 Views
You're just mean because of FantasyFootball *NM* ironclad - 27/10/2010 12:06:46 PM 474 Views
No! snoopcester - 27/10/2010 12:35:19 PM 956 Views
You are arguing with a man who liked Jar Jar Binks Mark - 27/10/2010 12:44:31 PM 889 Views
How long until someone had to bring it up? ironclad - 27/10/2010 12:46:16 PM 956 Views
Pfft, you obviously never found out about my letter to the German government Mark - 27/10/2010 01:00:40 PM 897 Views
Good point, there is no hope for him snoopcester - 27/10/2010 02:08:39 PM 862 Views
Jar-jar Binks is one of the most eloquent fictional characters of all time ever in the history of BlackAdder - 30/10/2010 11:05:50 PM 1006 Views

Oh behave yourself ! Michael - 28/10/2010 02:31:17 PM 946 Views
I'll see if I can list a few off the top of my head. Palatine - 27/10/2010 04:43:20 PM 913 Views
I find the inclusion of Jackass under classic/famous/beloved films to be hideously ridiculous. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:36:25 PM 463 Views
As do I. Palatine - 28/10/2010 05:16:51 PM 989 Views
The first three of yours, and a few other big ones. Legolas - 27/10/2010 08:05:12 PM 1028 Views
Wizard of Oz and at least one of the Terminator films are the most surprising. TaskmasterJack - 27/10/2010 11:35:04 PM 903 Views
Wizard of Oz is a very American thing, but yes, Terminator would shock people here too. Legolas - 27/10/2010 11:57:25 PM 983 Views
I first saw the Terminator films just this past summer. Craig - 28/10/2010 07:13:51 AM 905 Views
Wizard of Oz is on TV here every Christmas or so ironclad - 28/10/2010 09:26:18 AM 897 Views

For some reason, I've decided you should watch North to Alaska. *NM* nossy - 28/10/2010 02:30:13 AM 413 Views
have you seen Gone With the Wind? random thoughts - 28/10/2010 07:01:00 PM 990 Views
Yes. Love it. Why d'you ask? *NM* Legolas - 28/10/2010 08:47:15 PM 478 Views
