The "Stand By Me" thread made me think of this.

I've never seen "Stand By Me."

Many people gasp when I tell them.

Many also gasp when I tell them I've never seen The Goonies, Pretty in Pink, The Labyrinth, and a lot of other 80s classics... Movies you haven't seen -- and it always shocks people when they find out

Not to mention Speed, Speed 2, Pulp Fiction, The Godfather, or pretty much every Adam Sandler movie except 50 First Dates.

So what movies have you never seen that always surprises/shocks people when you tell them?

Too long of a list to name them all. I'd probably get banned from BWW, too.


I hung out with Cheyenne Jackson in his dressing room waayyyyyy before he tickled D2.

The Godfathers
Star Treks
Lord of the Rings (I've read the books though)
The Terminators
Roots (I think it's a black thing)
The Color Purple (I also read the book, but never bothered to see the movie until after I saw the musical.)


I have NEVER met Cheyenne Jackson. I have never hung out with him in his dressing room, he did not tweet me, he never bought me a beverage, and he mostly certainly didn't tickle me. . .that is all.

All of the Star Wars movies.

And my mother didn't let me watch The Wizard of Oz growing up since she hated it with a passion, so I was 19 before I saw it. (I won't comment on how many years ago that's been)

All of the Indiana Jones movies.

Name nearly any Best Picture Oscar winner. I hate being told I have to appreciate something just because someone else decided it was important.

starletta, when I was in high school, I made my boyfriend watch The Wizard of Oz, just so he would understand what I kept talking about. He had an even better excuse (he lived in Nigeria until he was 12) but still, that movie and Mary Poppins were my entire childhood.
