I've never seen and of the Godfather movies, and I feel pretty terrible about it. I haven't seen a Star Wars movies outside of the original trilogy.

Zero Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings movies.

Same for me with Star Wars, only the original trilogy.

I have also not watched any Harry Potter or LOTR.

Gone with the Wind

Casablanca

The Graduate

The Godfather(s)

Harry Potter

LOTR

Pretty much the same as said above

LOTR, any new Star Wars, The Godfathers (I have seen parts)

Haven't seen any of the superhero movies in the last 5 years.

Also haven't seen a movie in the theater since possibly the Batman Dark Knight movie

Godfather

Star Wars

Way too many to mention....frankly don't really go to movies or watch much TV at all

Casablanca.   And I'm tired of hearing about how good it is.

Just for a frame of reference, I looked at the "100 Most Important Movies" from HollywoodReporter.com.  When I saw that "Wall-E" was ranked higher at 79 then "Airplane!" or "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind", the list lost some credibility, but at least it was a starting point.

On the plus side, I finally saw "Singing In The Rain" a few months ago.  Had always wanted to watch it.  The psychedelic mod dance sequence in the second half was much too long, but overall a nice classic flick.

Some of the ones I've missed that I suspect most folks have seen:

• Blade Runner
• Princess Bride
• When Harry Met Sally
• The Shining
• Titanic
• Saving Private Ryan
• Schindler's List
• Citizen Kane
• Pulp Fiction
• To Kill A Mockingbird
•  

I am stunned at how many of you haven’t seen Godfather 1/2. And not that the internet shows personality, it seems to be right up most of your alleys based on posting. Come on people!!!

• Lord of the Rings (saw the first)
• Clockwork Orange (tried...couldn’t)
• The Shining
• Citizen Kane (also tried...couldn’t)

Except for The Shining and Pulp Fiction I have seen none of these movies....lol  Now if you asked me horror movies, I've probably seen most

It's really good.  You should see it!

LOL.  I don't think I saw it until maybe ten years ago, and then I saw what the fuss was about, and really grew to appreciate Claude Rains.  Without him and Dooley Wilson, it might have been just another Bogie trenchcoat flick.

Wall-E is a great movie. I bolded those that I have not seen.

I'm working on starting a collection of mob/gangster films and, well, most of the ones I've either bought or am looking to get, I haven't seen completely (Good Fellas, Casino, Scarface, Usual Suspects and Departed being the exceptions to that). Like, I've been in a room while they were on and watched some of them (in a few cases), but never sat down to catch the whole thing. And the Godfathers are in that class. I can tell I'm getting older and more patient, since I finally have gotten to the point where I'm ready to sit down for a full 3-hour movie.

Another big part of it is that I've always been a streaky movie watcher, where I'll binge on them for a while and then not watch any for months or years unless I'm at a friend's house and one is on.

You need to call in sick and catch up with these 3.  ASAP

Would not waste time on LOTR or Harry potter.

Dear lord, you're overthinking this.

Probably an unpopular opinion but i think clone wars > episode 1-3 > episode 4-6

I have not watched rebels. 

IMHO people remember 4-6 as being better than they are because at the time they were cutting edge. But now the acting was meh. (Luke is a whiny bitch just like Anakin.) The fights were terrible. The special affects are meh. Vader being Luke's father was a good twist. Other than that I think they were overrated.  And people hold all the new movies to an unreachable standard as well. They can't just watch a movie and enjoy it. 

I also think "To kill a mockingbird" was very over rated. I get that it was a big deal that a black man could be believed over a white man and it was racially significant but I thought the movie was pretty damn boring. 

I have not watched citizen kane or a clockwork orange and I really have no desire. 

A couple years ago one of my friends was over around Christmas time and we were watching Home Alone 2. He said "I've actually never seen the first or second Home Alone but I have seen the third one a few times." Idk what's more bizarre about that statement, the first part or the second. 

Citizen Kane, Gone with the Wind, Goonies, Gremlins, Schindler's List (the original one)

I didn't become anything close to a cinephile until the last few years anyway.
