My God, I've actually seen two films that Sarge hasn't. t:

Vertigo is good. Not as great as I wanted it to be. But nonetheless it's masterfly directed.

And The Sting is excellent. I liked it better than Butch Cassidy.

-

Frankly I'm surprised of the films some people haven't seen here. No Hitchcock films at all Parker Wayne?? You'll hit yourself when you finally get around to do it.

For me:

Casablanca
Lawrence of Arabia
Ben Hur (I will watch it this weekend)
The Ten Commandments
Citizen Kane (it's on my DVR waiting for me)
Gone With The Wind
The Searchers
The Elephant Man
Barry Lyndon (this is my top priority to watch right now)

[Dark Victory]

edit: Run, Lola, Run, a classic?

Well, they're all not classics, but they're supposedly good films I've always wanted to watch.

 

[Carmine Falcone]

See it now! t:

I have been planning on buying it soon...

 

[Doctor Jones]

****, I forgot Spartucus too.

 

[Doctor Jones]

I have been planning on buying it soon...

I wouldn't buy it if you were going to see it for the first time unless you're that sure it's going to be amazing. You may or not like it. I loved it. It feels slow as hell but it's beautiful. And it's worth the slow pace. You really have to absorb every second the film is on screen.

Good Man.

Or in your own words : See it now !t:

 

[Doctor Jones]

True. Very true. I hate myself it's taken this late to see it. I think it's good I've seen other Kubrick films prior to Lyndon. I'll know what I expect more. I know it's a slow film so I just gotta hope I like it.

 

[Doctor Jones]

I also have to see Taxi Driver.

I actually may watch it now. I found it on yt.
