  • Interesting... I've seen a lot of these. Does that mean that I'm cultured? Probably not.

    I had to do it too! I needed a reason to procrastinate.

  • I've seen 13...and own a chunk of those. 13 out of 100...that's almost a pass :) (Shh, leave me to my delusions!) Anyways, I don't think any less of you for not seeing any of those movies. Except for My Fair Lady, because that's a classic. Rent it, watch it, quote it!

  • Eh-Oh! No worries Ian it's a long and complicated list! With that being said I've seen many of them (does Broadway and live theatre count? Because if they do them I've seen more) and own a few of them! Surprisingly though, I don't own Platoon...which Johnny Depp is in! I've seen it...well most of it, I stopped after Johnny's character died! What? It was sad! I know, I know, I'm a loser!

  • You have to see On the Waterfront - it's one of my favourites and high on the list!

    Marlon Brando is delicious! (that was before going crazy and adding 300-some-odd pounds)

    "I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody"

    goosebumps.
