Don't know if I'm the only one who has done this but, after looking at my DVD collection, are there any movies you've bought that for one reason or another you haven't watched yet?
 
I own a few I haven't seen yet.. All of these were low priced which I think plays a part in why I bought them only to not watch them right away, ha.

Blade Runner: The Final Cut- Got this in November 2010. I've seen the direcor's cut, which I also own, but haven't gotten around to this one yet.

Speed Racer- Bought this when I got Blade Runner, tried watching it once but couldn't get into it. Someday...

Hellboy- I've seen like, three fourths of it. I liked it it well enough but I keep putting off finishing it.

V for Vendetta- Had this for a couple months now but haven't been in the mood for it.

Ninja Turtles II, III, and TMNT- Got these along with the original movie for Christmas, only watched the first one so far.
 
I bought a lot of blu rays on black friday and still haven't caught up. Out of the ones I've never actually seen:

Ip Man
Citizen Kane
Patton ( stop watching halfway to go somewhere and never followed with it)
Star Wars :The Clone Wars -season two
 
For me it's...

The Descent
The Ring
District 9
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Star Trek (2009)
 
Apocalypse Now
The Godfather
The Godfather part II
Eraser
Tango & Cash
Escape From NY
Goldfinger
The Bourne Supremacy
The Bourne Ultimatum
Hostel part II
Taxi Driver
IT

Plus many more that I can't think of right now.
 
Haha, nice thread!

Yeah I've done this a lot. I'll have a look when I get home, but off the top of my head:

An American Werewolf in London
The Holiday
Hellboy 2
Ghost Rider
Full Metal Jacket
Carrie 2
The Crow: City of Angels
Schindler's list
 
Thank god I'm not the only one. I've got things still in the shrink wrap:

The Last Samurai
Saved
Phantom of the Opera
Unforgiven
Chicago
Hairspray
Run Lola Run

:up: I have that box set. Love that show.
 
Movies that I have watched but not finished:

Bridesmaid
Friends With Interest
Drive Angry

Movies that I haven't started watching yet:

Conan The Barbarian
Hangover 2
 
13 Assassins. I removed the plastic wrap and everything, but I just haven't been able to get into the right mood to watch it. I hear it's excellent, though.
 
I have too many to list. I buy any movie I'm fairly interested in and have intentions to still watch them all. Ever since we had a child a year and a half ago my movie watching opportunities have dimiinished.
 
And these are mostly all good movies everyone has.

I have a copy of Citizen Kane on Vhs that I've never watched.

I dare say that I have over a hundred. I buy used and cheap multipacks of movies that I think could be interesting to watch....they've been adding up pretty bad. I made a New Years resolution this year to try and get a bunch of them watched. So far I've been watching at least one a day.
 
Alexander Revisited
Bad News Bear
Batman The Movie
Harriet The Spy
The Hitcher
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Lords of Dogtown
Miracle
Night of the Living Dead 3D
Transformers - Optimus Prime VS Megatron: The Ultimate Battle
Wizards


Some I've seen before just not since I've bought them.
 
Crash, a present I haven't got round to watching yet but do plan to and Dune, which has been on my shelf for ages and just haven't bothered watching..
 
Bought the anime Demon City Shunjiko a few weeks back and still haven't gotten around to seeing it.
 
I haven't really been buying a lot of movies like I use too ( wasted a lot on money on movies that I only watched once and never watched them again). It has to be a movie that I really really liked and will watch more than one time for me to buy it. Or the movie has to be pretty cheap. One movie that I recently bought that was cheap was Hurt Locker and I have yet to watch it (heard good things about it though). The only other movie I have bought recently was Real Steel which is a pretty good movie.
 
Tears of the Sun
Shooter
Mr. Brooks
2001: Space Odyssey
Close Encounters of the Third Kind

That's it, everything else I've seen.
