Most famous film you never saw
 
I was sitting on the sofa talking to my wonderful girlfriend, We saw the man next door walking past so I started to hum the music you hear when darth vader enters a room.

My girlfriend said "why are you doing that" I said
"its darth vader, looks like brian doesnt it"
She replied
"whos darth vader?"

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.

Daft Lad 17 February 2009 02:40 PM

I've never seen Jaws :(

W R X 17 February 2009 02:40 PM

Youve never seen The Great Escape? Having not seen that is gayer than having watched Bridget Jones IMHO ;)

Oh my god it gets worse....

Maybe im just an old *******. In fact Im sure thats it

Kieran_Burns 17 February 2009 02:41 PM

ET - I so am so damn' proud to say i have never seen ET.

EddScott 17 February 2009 02:42 PM

Probably more like the most popular.

Titantic I would imagine. Both sexes and all ages will probably watch it at some point.

Although to be fair the who his Darth Vader comment should really have been met with extreme scorn.

davegtt 17 February 2009 02:43 PM

OK, working on the IMDB top 250 of all time list (funnily enough I was looking at it less than 2 hours ago)

Number 8, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest is the first one I have not seen

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

Incidentally - the Imperial March (Darth music) sounds astonishing when played live by a full orchestra. Really makes the floor shake.

stilover 17 February 2009 02:48 PM

Titanic - Just not interested
Gladiator - Hate Russel Crow
Bridget Jones Diary - I'm not Gay
The Full Monty - I still ain't gay.

Any other Romantic comedy style film. Utter sh*te

Scoobychick 17 February 2009 02:49 PM

Me, I have seen just about everything going though I have to admit Casblanca , one flew over ... and Gone with the wind are omissions
