Ok, since we all can't forget about Bart's Terminator 2 incident & now we have Smitty & Forest Gump-gate, I'm sure there's skeletons in everybodys closets of movies they've never seen. So, we'll see who's man or woman enough to admit to it. ;D The one I catch the most flack for never having seen is 'Armageddon'. And we even own a VHS copy of it & I still haven't watched it. Ok, so who's next?

Okay, when posting what "big" or "popular" movie you've never seen, I think we should also mention whether you've seen the previous person's movie or not.
I've seen ARMAGEDDON, but I still haven't seen SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE. In fact that's the only Best Picture Oscar winner in recent memory I haven't seen.

I've seen Armageddon & Shakespeare In Love, but I still have not seen The Exorcist, even though my sis has the VHS & DvD.

That's really pathetic, Termination. I'm 11 and I own Exorcist. No offense man, really, I've already suffered a Micahel Maden fate and I don't want my face sticking to the winshield of that car on your avatar.

Frankenjohn, what big movie haven't you seen? Termination, you really should go to Movie Prison for that offense. THE EXORCIST is a biggie.

Saw Armageddon: it's a juicy guilty pleasure.
Saw Shakespeare In Love: much better than I thought it might be.
Saw The Exorcist: very powerful!
Never saw Raging Bull, though.

The Shining. I own it, but I'm not getting enough time to watch it. Don't worry, I'll watch it tomorrow!

Ok, the movie police have arrived at my door & threatened me, that if I do not watch The Exorcist tonight, they are not only going to throw me in prision with no possiblity of parole, but will also burn all my dvds. I let ya know, what I think of it in about 10 hours!

I let ya know, what I think of it in about 10 hours! So the Movie Police is pretty effective, after all! If I had as many DVD's as Termination I wouldn't risk having them burned, either... And frankenjohn: I hope your "tomorrow" didn't mean "next year" this time? ;D

No, it meant tomorrow. It was a GOOD movie. Jack Nicholson did a great job as Jack. I like the ending.

Good but disappointing, yeah. Not one of my Top Fifty Horror Movies.

Well I saw The Exorcist finally, its kinda hard not to when there is someone holding a gun to your head. Disturbing yes, scary no. I didn't think it was that great a film, but I did like the cool Horror effects on the Demonic girl & also how they tied the findings from the dig to the overall plot. I thought the mother in the film didn't react very realistically when she saw her possessed child. I think in reality, she would be in a mental hospital about half way through the film. Also not enough character build up between the mother & daughter, before she gets possessed. Well not enough for me to care wether she lives or dies. I think if they added more scenes in the beginning with the daughter (normal) & mother & their close relationship, the film would have been so much more effective. In the end, I give it a 6.5/10, enough to warrant a blind buy, only this time I won't be blind. ;D I have not seen Monster's Ball with Hally Berry yet, but don't think the movie police will be knocking at my door for that film.. maybe..

Nah, I don't think Monter's Ball would warrant a visit from the movie police.

Definitely not. Monster's Ball is a good movie but by no means a classic.
