Board 8 > Strife's Soapbox: The "I've Never Done This" List

(+) Yeah! (+)

In a rare situation, I pull double duty with the soapbox today. I started thinking about Harry Potter, and it occured to me that I've never watched or read the movies or books. There have to be other things that people might think 'WTF' when they hear the phrase, "I've never watched...I've never played...I've never read..." whatever. Here's a chance to see what things people have yet to do. What also counts are media you tried, but only managed a few minutes or an hour before giving up. I'll start off.

Some of those aren't that surprising. Mostly the non-video game stuff.

The only thing I could think of that's surprising to never have played is probably Goldeneye and most PC games.
Then again it's not uncommon to not be PC player.

Movies I've never seen

The Shawshank Redemption
The Godfather: Part II
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
12 Angry Men
Schindler's List
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Inception
Seven Samurai
Fight Club
Casablanca
City of God
Once Upon a Time in the West

And yes, I used the top 25 of the IMDb Top 250 for this. Also, I'm seeing Inception tonight.

Shawshank, Cuckoo's Nest, and Fight Club should be next on your watch list.

Yeah, I'll get to that. Shawshank, Fight Club and The Big Lebowski are probably the most hyped up movies I haven't seen.

I haven't seen Lebowski either. Groundhog Day is another one.

You should definitely see Groundhog Day, it's one of my favorites. Along with Pulp Fiction.

For the love of god...why was Batman and Robin put into production? I remember reading a VERY harsh critique while rewatching the movie a couple years ago; good lord.
