It seems that I've seen almost every good movie there is to see, but just yesterday I realized I've never seen The Wizard of Oz. I've watched 10 times more movies than all of my friends combined, but I'm the only one who's never seen The Wizard of Oz. We were talking about it in English class, and I had no idea what anyone was talking about.
So Newgrounds, are there any classic movies that you've never seen?
Gone with the Wind and Citizen Kane top my list.
Well: http://www.imdb.com/chart/top
Like half of that.
Every time I watch a new "classic" movie I almost die of boredom.
I'm NEVER watching the Wizard of Oz. I'm smart enough to know when something is beyond retarded and can thus avoid it.
Seriously don't listen to people who say old movies are the best, they're out of their minds and shitting on the entire movie industry as it stands today by saying that all their knowledge, work and talent can't amount to something as good as a bunch of midgets and monkeys in fur suits singing about retarded bullshit while tapdancing.
I've only seen a handful of classic movies, So I'm just going to say all of them. Minus The Godfather Series, most Disney classics, and The Blue Max.
Titanic, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and the worst movie ever.

You sort of have to appreciate the time that it was made though. Maybe midgets in fur suits was the pinnacle of technology back when The Wizard of Oz was made. Comparing new movies to old movies isn't really far, because we know a lot more about making movies then they did back in the day, but they still managed to make amazing movies, although not the most thrilling.
I don't think I've seen any classic movies.
Apocalypse now.
I'll rent it someday...
Click my dock for previews of this flash I'm doing. PM me comments.

Let's put it this way: the first airplane was an amazing accomplishment, but no one today would want to ride in that old piece of shit.
People need to understand that a "best movies" list isn't a "most historically significant" movies list. If you made a "best planes" list, you wouldn't put the FIRST EVER PLANE on it. Because I'm pretty sure that is one of the WORST planes ever.
The Goonies
Taxi Driver
Casablanca
To all of those who say they have never seen the Wizard Of Oz, I'd like to share that it is one of my favourite feel good movies of all time, and I can recite every song from it in perfect detail.
no homo
The work, which becomes a new genre itself, will be called...
I haven't seen The Shawshank Redemption, maybe someday.
Define a "classic movie" for me please.
My opinions are so useless, I don't even listen to them.

I don't recommend that one. It's really long and boring. I've seen a lot of classics too but not Predator. It's next on my list! :D
The only two movies that can be called classic that I have watched are The Godfather- the first part, and Kelly's Heroes, both had color, and were quite good to watch. I'd recommend.
"self-righteousness can lead to being an asshole"
I haven't seen Fight Club.
I wanna see it so badly but no rental shops in my town have it...
Karate Kid
Titanic
The Goonies*
Ghostbusters**
Rocky
Matrix
the 3rd Lord of the Ring
* i want to see it
** i REALLY want to see it!!!!!
Titanic, most of Tarantino's works, any of Kubrick's works, You Don't Mess With The Zohan.
it's easier to name the ones I have watched... and even then, that's difficult.
too difficult to list here, in fact...
I'd like to see "The wizard of Oz" and "The count of Monty Christo"
I probably seen them all except for "Casablanca" and I never watched all of "The Birds". I just watched "Citizen Kane" not too long ago which was pretty good for its time period.

"Classic" - judged over a period of time to be of the highest quality and outstanding of its kind.
It really depends on what you consider classic.
I've never seen Top Gun or Roadhouse.
We had some good times, Newgrounds.
