You can probably stand to miss that one

The Hobbit prequels to LOTR are like the Star Wars prequels in that respect.

Not a great selection on the Demand player. I was hoping to watch the film Khartoum. Never did see that nor Lawrence of Arabia which I am planning to shortly.

Lawrence, forget the plot just watch the landscape on the biggest bestest TV you can

I'm ashamed to say I have seen every one of the mentioned films so far. Even dirty dancing. (I had a dumbass stepsister who loved it when we were kids)

Can't think of any films I haven't seen.

Haven't seen Avatar, any of the Jurassic Park films or The Lion King either.

How could you not have seen a James Bond film? Just being alive and a TV on you'll see a bond. Especially around Christmas.

:eek: PUL Eeeeease watch The Green Mile! Good lord, ye could walk under a truck tomorrow! I have the DVD on my shelf. Watched it several times. Never bored me.


I've never seen a Star Wars film. Simply because 'space' just isn't my thing.

Funnily enough though, I'll simply never tire of watching the Eddie Izzard skit of it!

Didn't hate it but it's definitely nonsense.

Great movies, you should really give then a look.

Far too many to mention. Most 'blockbusters'.

I only saw Blues Brothers for the first time last year.

I am going to watch Bladerunner this weekend if I get time.

Guess you've never seen this https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/mongol/ then. It's not very Art House.

Never seen any of the Pixar films, Harry Potter, Marvel films or newer Star Wars.

HalloweenJack

Star Wars
I've seen a bit of the first one and, over the years, I've caught wind of the story and what happens and, frankly, I'm not really bothered about seeing it.

Most of the films mention here are over rated, over glorified muck.

Godfather trilogy, don't get the appeal. First is meh, 2nd is good, 3rd is tripe.

Shawshank, seriously? It's grand like but has to be one of the most over rated films of all times? It's always top of these 'must see before you die lists.

LOTR trilogy, a wash of boring over used CGI coupled with poor scripting / acting. Just wasn't a fan, ruined the books for me.

Starwars, meh. Original trilogy is decent, hasn't aged well at all.

Etc.. Etc..

Suppose it's all subjective.

I know you entitled to your opinion but you're just plain wrong about the Godfather trilogy.

Haven't ever seen a Star Wars or Lord d the Rings film. They're just not of any interest to me.

He's right
#3 was the work of someone who needed money for his family. Studio demanded that

Michael gets redemption

which IMHO ruined what was already the worst of the series.

One of the best things about that film is the CGI. It has none.


Music is good too. And the atmosphere, it's been copied too many times but still stands out.



I bought Ultraviolet on Blu-Ray. It was 25c and it was only to test a Blu-Ray player. I still feel cheated :mad:

Oddly enough the opening scene of the Blues Brothers pays homage to the opening scene of Blade Runner.

How exactly?

The Blues Brothers came out in 1980, Blade Runner in 1982. That would be pretty impressive.
