Now an embarrassed movie I have seen is Best In Show, thanks to my wife and to this day she gets mad if I bring it up! She just had to keep watching "its gonna get better I promise, my Mom said it was good."
Well guess what my Mother-in-law has bad taste in movies!!!!
Now Broke Back Mountain, I fell asleep within 10 minutes.....Thank God!
Man, I loved both Best in Show and Brokeback Mountain.
The two biggies that I have never seen are Godfather II and Casablanca. I have also missed several movies by greats like Alfred Hitchcock and Billy Wilder.
I'm not really familiar with John Cassavetes work, and I know people that swear by his movies.
And I've missed out on a lot of foreign stuff, life Fellini, Bergman, etc.
But besides Godfather II and Casablanca, I don't really catch a lot of flack for the rest. I do, however, catch hell for a lot of TV shows that I've never seen. I have never watched any of the HBO or Showtime programs that everyone has raved about, or any of the stuff on FX (except for one season of It's Always Sunny... which I loved). I haven't had cable in a couple of years, and when Ive had cable I've never had the premium channels.
But Ive been plowing through movies like a madman since starting a netflix account last month. Once I exhaust all my movie ideas I'll have to start burning through some of these TV programs everyone raves about.
