Never seen Casablanca either. Depends on how famous you class the film. i.e. going off that list Shawshank Redeption is the best film of all time. I bet theres a few people who still havent seen that but I wouldnt say its the most famous film
Funnily enough we were looking at that this morning too

I get to #17 City Of God, for the first I've not seen, I've not even heard of it either

Citizen Kane is probably the most famous film that I've never seen


BTW Both Casablanca and One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest are highly recommended, by me

Titanic

I've never seen any of the Alien(s) quadrilogy. I plan never to as it would seem a waste of the last 20 years to cave in now.

"Titanic" because of the distortion of the truth about certain characters that existed.

happily never seen a single second of any Harry Potter film

only seen bits of resevoir dogs and pulp fiction. watched kill bill but never bothered with any of the others.

worst crime to cinema history was when i did a 'wax on, wax off' to a work experience lad and just got a blank look.
next was a 'daniel-san', still a blank look.
even did the crane, still nothing.
told him to watch it on youtube and next day he seemed a little bit impressed by what he saw. converted

ditto

also radio 4 have a program on at the moment called "so you've never seen stawars" -- hosted bt Marcus Bridgstock

the premise is about getting well known people to do things they have never done

Thats right the love of my life, the women I plan to marry has never seen star wars.
She asked if I had ever seen bridget jones, ,I told of course not its gay. But it got me thinking
Whats the most famous film you have never seen.

For me its Bridget jones diary or The great escape.
No meat and no star wars, jeez Christmas must be a barrel of laughs at your gaff

I've not seen the sound of music, the princess bride, casablanca and/or various slushy classic chick flicks.
I don't think I've seen any of the legally blonde series either, but Robin Hood - men in tights was funny

I once made the grave mistake of not concentrating on movie choice after a heavy night on the pop and settled down to watch shaving ryan's privates with the missus, that was awkward

Its like when the girlfriend goes downstairs first in the morning and you have'nt changed the channel back from television X the night before when she went to bed before you.

Its tough to explain away

I think it goes without saying that these films should never be watched by anyone, lest they wish their eyes to bleed from the horror.

So far the 3 most shocking to me are
ET - It was the last film Drew barrymore did when she still had the ability to act.
Rocky 4 - The greatest montage of all time
Rambo - It is an accurate documentary about how what happens when a vet get pushed to far.
