I'd imagine I've yet to see at least 80 of any respectable top 100 all time classics. I didn't see Shawshank redemption (1994) until lockdown, and now rate it as my No1. Similar timing for the Godfathers (x3), Goodfellas, and Fight club (The latter rated as "utter rubbish".) Superheroes, galactic battles, and fantasy stuff interest me not, so they'll never get a look in. Same with screaming hysterical kids (Home Alone/Matilda etc) and anything slapstick and/or with Jim Carey in it. I can cope with gore and giblets, but I don't trust my heart, so jumpy "Scary/Horror movies" are a definite no-no! 🤣 Not a fan of period drama's either, hence why Muckerette watches 'em alone, and I just come on here! 🤣 I'll give anything a go with Morgan Freeman in it, basically. EDIT, as a test... From this specific top 100 list... https://www.imdb.com/list/ls055592025/ I've not seen 73 of 'em! I appreciate that won't be everyone's "Top 100"! Wow, I haven't seen 63/100 of those. So many old ones though. I've probably seen most of the listed films made in the last 40 years but hardly any of the pre 1960's ones - and there are a lot of them!.

May Contain Nuts Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 (edited) I only counted 10/100 I have watched in their entirety, even some of them weren't really through choice but just because they were on the Tele and either someone else was watching or I was incredibly bored The Wizard of Oz. Psycho. Forrest Gump. ET. Lord of the Rings. Titanic. Jaws. Jurassic Park. The Exorcist. Rear Window.. Only 1 of them (Jurassic Park) at the cinema and none of them (or any film for that matter) twice.

AndyinLiverpool Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I haven't watched Avatar all the way through. I went to the cinema to see it, so the intent was there but slept through a good deal of it and never felt the need to see it again. See also Gone Girl and Tenet (though these last two were on my own telly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
