That's a damn shame, sir.
I'm a pretty big movie person, so there's not really much that I HAVEN'T seen. When my bro worked at Blockbuster, we'd go on movie binge nights and watch four or five in a row before we went to sleep. About the only movie I can think of, off the top of my head, is Pumpkinhead. I'm a horror movie fan, yet I've never sat down and watched that before.
"Shindler's List. Dont even know if I spelt it right, but apparently its a must see"
Schindler's List. It's cool, can't expect everyone to spell that one right, so I won't call the Grammar Police on you. That's a fantastic movie, btw, mostly because Liam Neeson is the fuckin' man!!!
"Your list + The Shawshank Redemption and a ton of other classics I'll probably never end up seeing."
I saw the Shawshank Redemption...it really isn't all that great I thought."
.......comment is failure.
As a side note though, I lived in Perrysville, Ohio for a handful of years when I was a little kid. It's a VERY small town right outside of Mansfield, where this movie was primarily filmed. I've got relatives that worked at that prison...and it definitely wasn't a happy place.
That movie is soooooo much fun!!! Is it a great movie? Yes, just because it buys full-on into the philosophy of being completely over-the-top and ridiculous, but making cool action sequences because of it.

I agree. I just caught this on HBO earlier tonight, as a matter of fact.
Clive Owen and Paul Giamatti really sold me with the sensationalist, deadpan action. Hilarious film.

I feel opposite about that film. I was very aware that they were being over the top on purpose, but stuff like that helicopter chopping that dude up, and the sex thing were just too much.

It's poking fun at the steriotypical Hollywood, summer action flick. The movie doesn't take itself seriously in fact it's almost satirical. After Clive destroys that whole squad of trained soldiers in his appartment, Paul Giamatti replies, "He is either that good, or really bad." (Something along those lines) This is pretty candid in making fun of action movie conventions that immortalize the protagonist and cause utter incompetency in henchmen.

You should definitely see that movie, as for me, I haven't seen Pulp Fiction. Saw about 20min of it towards the end but I didnt want to watch it till I could see the whole film.
Mine would be about 100 films long if I could remember them all. I'm not a huge movie guy. I only really bother to watch a movie if it comes on the TV at a convenient time. I've never bought a DVD, my collection of 5 DVD's were all gifts. I haven't been to the cinema in about a year and a half, and even when I do go to the cinema it's because my friends are going, not because I want to see the movie.

Crank was better at that than Shoot 'Em Up. Better in general than Shoot 'Em Up. Still a great film though.
"I've only watched half of boondock saints. Other than that I usually catch alot of the good movies."
You should probably just watch Reservoir Dogs, instead. Or just the bits of Pulp Fiction with Sam Jackson and John Travolta, since the script of the Boondock Saints pretty well lifts the religious-but-quirky-hitman motif from that.
