      I have not seen the bolded, nor do I care to see that LOR bullsh*. Zero interest.
      Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

        You probably have seen 19, it was just called "The Magnificent Seven."

          I think the only ones I haven’t seen are the last two and LOTR movies.

          Not shocked that people haven’t seen City of God, I’d highly recommend it.

                I cannot, for the life of me, get into that genre. Also see: GOT tv series. *shrug*

                19 is an all-time classic. Kurosawa is a hell of a director.

                  I probably should watch them, I don’t have any great reason for not watching them other than length and the fantasy elements of it being somewhat of a deterrent. I also recognize that’s not the greatest reason to not watch something haha.

                  And yeah Seven Samurai is awesome, though it’s not shocking that subtitled foreign films are the most commonly not seen among people here.

                    There are 4 that I haven't seen.

                    LOTR >>>> Star Wars

                    Better source material and better movies.

                      Funny thing is that The Hobbit <<<<< The Prequels

                      Hard to imagine anyone making a worse trilogy than I-III, but Pete Jackson managed to do it.

                        It’s hard to imagine anything being worse than the prequels, other than the Star Wars Christmas special that George Lucas denies exists.

                          The only "fantasy/miedeviel" genre thing I ever sorta liked was "Eyes Of The Dragon" by Stephen King, and I'm guessing if I re-read it, I'd probably not like it anymore.

                            Pretty sure I have the soundtrack on vinyl. Got it at a garage sale. Haven't ever listened to it.

                            Jon Bongiovi is one of the vocalists.
