I've Never Seen
 

I am sitting here watching THE FIVE HEARTBEATS and I know there are people who have NEVER seen this MUSICAL GENIUS masterpiece.:eek:


Question: What movies have you NEVER seen?

1. Godfather -- not nary a one of them
2. Amistad
3. Mission Impossible -- nary a one of those either
4. James Bond -- nary a one
5. Mahogany
6. Star Wars/Star Trek

I have tons more but I am drawing a blank but I know I can count on you to jog my memory!!

I do not necessarily want to see these either. However there are some people who claim I am missing out on something.

The Sound of Music
Gone with the Wind

Also people always clown on me because I have never seen the original-Shaft.

Thanks
 

1. Shaft -- original and remake
2. Sound of Music -- I have really tried to watch this "classic" but naw cuz, it just is not happening.
3. Dolemite
4. Nary a one of Pam Grier's movies
5. The LAst Dragon
6. Baby Boy
7. Belly -- I tried but that isht sucked big time.

Sound of Music
Belly
Godfather Series
Mission Impossible 2
When Harry Met Sally

Sound of Music
Dancing in the Rain
Casablanca
Any of the Star Wars movies
Exorcist

i know, most of em are considered classics, but I thought they would be too old and/or boring from my persective when iwas a kid, and I was and still AM too freaked by the stories I've heard about the exorcist to watch it.:eek:

I guess there is an epidemic with the Godfather trilogy, because I haven't seen it either.
2. dolemite/pam grier movies
3. titanic
4.batman movies

That DANG ON MOVIE
 

TITANIC
BATMAN -- any of them
Naked Gun
Lethal Weapons 1-3, only saw part 4 because of Chris Rock
Bamboozled
Clockers -- saw part but it put me to sleep

People are always shocked at these 2:

1. E.T.
2. The Color Purple

Mama NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

EEEEEEEEEEEEK!!! LOL
just teasing but for real EEEK!!

I can't believe you haven't seen these movies. I really want you to go out and rent them as soon as possible.

I saw Cornbread, Earl, and ME on BET this past week. If it wasn't for BET this would be the one that I hadn't seen.
****singing****Its Cornbread****singing****

Ok here goes,

Godfather saga...and my mom has them on VHS and has had them for years. I think that I may want to see them now that I saw something on A&E about the author Mario Puzo (sp)

E.T
Titanic
Bamboozled...actually I saw 5 minutes of it, and then I had to turn
Star Trek...none of them


....CT4 , you haven't seen Mahogany...oh my.

I've tried. Really I have. Tell you what over the Christmas holidays I will TRY AGAIN.

I think that is classic that you have never seen Mahogany. I would have never picked this particular movie as one that anyone had not seen....Now if you get a chance to see it over the holidays, remember this was a good movie for that time period, cuz like CornBread, Earl and Me, I liked it back then, but now the acting is just bad. :p

wow
 

Now I don't feel alone, cause I haven't seen E.T. either. I feel like I have since folks tell me the whole dang movie.:rolleyes:

I also haven't seen Mohangany or Sparkle:p

I've seen WAAAYYYY too many movies...
 

Let me warn y'all - I'm a movie FANATIC...have seen just about everything mentioned, but feel I must start here...

TO ALL OF Y'ALL WHO HAVE NEVER SEEN MAHOGANY...

You need to rent it!! Ladies especially. For real! And you might as well pick up Lady Sings the Blues while you're at it, and get a double dose of Billy Dee Williams. And Bingo Long and his Traveling All Stars if you can find it, for the triple Billy Dee play. BILLY DEE! BILLY DEE!! Before he did the malt liquor commercials, he was ALL DAT. In Mahogany, when he says, "let me tell you something and don't you ever forget it...success is NOTHING without someone you love to share it with!" GURL, I jes get GOOSEBUMPS!! Or in Lady Sings the Blues when he holds out the $$$ and says, "you want my hand to fall off?" WHEEWWWWW!!! Billy Dee! Billy Dee! Billy Dee! (I'm clapping my hands as I say this, LOL).

NEXT ON THE LIST...THE GODFATHER, PARTS 1 AND 2.
"Fredo...you broke my heart!!"
"I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse..."
"Never ask me about my business Kay."
AL PACINO...ROBERT DENIRO...MARLON BRANDO...JAMES CAAN...Y'all, these are movie masterpieces - you need to see these movies!! What do y'all talk about at parties, LOL.

LET ME THROW IN CITIZEN KANE IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT. RENT IT. IT'S AMAZING. Ditto on IMITATION OF LIFE (Lana Turner version or the original), GONE WITH THE WIND, REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE, THE WIZARD OF OZ, and the Jimmy Stewart Christmas classic, IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. ALL CLASSICS.

And to the person who has never seen Sparkle...IF YOU DON'T RENT IT IN THE NEXT WEEK, I AM REVOKING YOUR CARD!!
SPARKLE IS A BLACK CLASSIC!!! "Sista can't fly with one wing!!" The songs!! A YOUNG, SUPER SEXY PHILLIP MICHAEL THOMAS!! "I want cha to crawl for me..." Irene Cara...Lonette McKee - this movie was my all time childhood greatest!!

DITTO TO THE PERSON WHO HASN'T SEEN PURPLE RAIN. Imma revoke your Prince card if you don't rent it - Morris Day was jokey, LOL.

And PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE see The Color Purple. PEOPLE, I'M BEGGING YOU, LOL. Seriously tho, I thought Oprah was gonna win an Oscar..."You told Harpo to beat me."

AND here's a couple more great movies that I consider "must sees":
THE USUAL SUSPECTS, SEVEN, and AMERICAN BEAUTY - Kevin Spacey is incredible!!
FORREST GUMP
SCHINDLER'S LIST
A WALK IN THE CLOUDS (with Keanu Reeves...ladies, you're just going to have to trust me on this one)
GLORY (Denzel!)
ALL SPIKE LEE MOVIES, EXCEPT FOR GIRL 6 AND CROOKLYN (but including BAMBOOZLED and SHE'S GOTTA HAVE IT)
PHILADELPHIA (More Denzel!!)
RICOCHET (Denzel at his all time finest).
OH FORGET IT - ALL DENZEL MOVIES. There. Except maybe Carbon Copy and Mississippi Masala.
NATURAL BORN KILLERS (actually, most of Oliver Stone's stuff is great - didn't he do Born on the 4th of July - which is also great)
FULL METAL JACKET
THE TRUMAN SHOW
LEGENDS OF THE FALL (Brad Pitt is HOT - go see Ocean's Eleven too!
THE LAST SEDUCTION (with Linda Fiorentino...again, trust me on this one - guys, you'll like it too)
WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY
CLAUDINE
THE LION KING
ROCKY 1 - 4, cuz 5 was whack
BLAZING SADDLES and HISTORY OF THE WORLD, PART 1
NEW JACK CITY
RESERVOIR DOGS and PULP FICTION
SILENCE OF THE LAMBS
YENTL, NUTS, AND THE PRINCE OF TIDES, for the Streisand effect
WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT
ALL MOVIES WHERE A BLACK PERSON WON AN OSCAR
BABE (yeah, the one about the pig, trust me!)
THE NATURAL, FIELD OF DREAMS, THE BAD NEWS BEARS (only the original), TIN CUP, ANY GIVEN SUNDAY, THE PROGRAM, THE LONGEST YARD, and THE FISH THAT SAVED PITTSBURGH for your sports fix, with THE WATERBOY and HAPPY GILMORE for your jokey sports fix

I know I'm writing a book, but like I said, I'm a MOVIE FANATIC - I love movies, and will go see just about anything. Two final comments:

THE FIVE HEARTBEATS IS A BLACK CLASSIC!!! "how does it feel to be me???"

And while THE SOUND OF MUSIC is a great musical...Imma say that CARMEN JONES is the greatest...and then WEST SIDE STORY, or LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS. It's a toss up, but y'all need to see all 4 of these movies.

And what you hate is, I'm SURE I've forgotten a movie that I really love, LOL. But I'm out!!!

Yes, I'm a movie connoiseur (sp?) too
 

While I have seen way too many movies (all I do on Friday and some Saturday nights is eat pizza and watch movies), My never seen list is:

Queen
Roots: The Next Generation (Vol. 3-7). I saw Vol. 1 and got halfway through vol. 2 before it started to get a little too soap-operaish for me. Yes, I saw all 6 volumes of the original Roots.
The Godfather trilogy
The Star Trek hexilogy
The Scream trilogy
The Rocky quintology
The Blair Witch duology (is that a word?)
Note: While I did see "The Color Purple, it wasn't until four years ago, and my first time was my last. The only thing I cared about was if Celie was going to reunite with her sister, and when she did at the end of the movie, I said "Case closed" and ejected the tape. Needless to say, the movie did not appeal to me.
While I did see American Pie and Scary Movie, I do not plan to view the sequels.
The Sound of Music
It's a Wonderful Life
Casablanca


I saw parts or portions of:
The Lion King
Rosewood
What's Love Got to Do With It (I have never fully seen the first 1/3 of the movie--when Ike and Tina first met).
The Mummy--I saw part 2 though with my now ex-boo and didn't
care for it.
Shaft
Superfly
Dolemite--I did see the sequels in it's entirety and they are all right.

More to follow.

There are a LOT of movies that I haven't seen...

But one that sticks out in my mind is The Five Heartbeats...


I have peeps who are forever making references to it... and I STILL haven't seen it.

I am going to get you and Ideal08 in a room with that movie because that movie is chock full of CT4 allusions.

And you were disturbed that I had not seen that Christmas orphanage cartoon.:rolleyes: or that wacked out Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Re: I SWUR
