Annie Hall.
And I have the Man With No Name trilogy on my DVR to get to when I finish school.

2007-2013 -- nm - Spawn Jan 28, 11:06
I'm... not sure there are any. (I've seen 97 of the AFI Top 100 znu posted below) I do need to re-watch Citizen Kane. -- nm - Roger More Jan 28, 11:04
BladeRunner. -- nm - Andie Jan 28, 11:04
Related: I find that icheckmovies.com is a great site to keep track of what you've seen - Guigue Jan 28, 10:58
Lawrence of Arabia -- nm - Jovian Jan 28, 10:57
Seven Samurai, for some reason it's hard to find around here - Guigue Jan 28, 10:54 6
- Boite Noire doesn't have it? -- nm - Roger More Jan 28, 11:01 4
  - Probably (Definitely). I always go to the Videotron Répertoire where I have an unlimited rental membership - Guigue Jan 28, 11:04 3
    - If it's the one on Mont-Royal, they have a weird collection. Like lots of Jean Renoir, but I've never found La Regle du Jeu there - Roger More Jan 28, 11:06 2
      - They have something Boite Noire doesn't have though - Guigue Jan 28, 11:11 1
        
        Oh, agreed on the IM. I was surprised how good their collection is. I was just commenting on how odd it is that they'll have these obscure titles by - Roger More Jan 28, 11:15
- In the same vein, I need to give more attention to the good Japanese Animes -- nm - Guigue Jan 28, 10:57
Literally thousands. -- nm - spamlet Jan 28, 10:54 1
- that's the thing. It's either tens of thousands or none. There is no middle ground. -- nm - CQ Jan 28, 10:55
The Deer Hunter, Hard Boiled, Schindler's List, Dead Man and Donnie Darko. Probably more than those. -- nm - Krusty Jan 28, 10:53 2
- I don't think I've seen Dead Man (what's that?) but I've seen the rest. Deer Hunter is ... yikes. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 28, 10:55 1
  - Dead Man is a Jim Jarmusch film w/Johnny Depp. I like his films and this one I just haven't gotten to yet. -- nm - Krusty Jan 28, 10:57

most classic pre-1940 stuff... - Mel Profit Jan 28, 10:47 4
- Just to be picky, those are both post-1940. I think the forties are generally better than the 1930s for what we think of as classic film. - mara Jan 28, 10:51 2
  - and the year 1939 of course which kicked all kinds of ass. -- nm - Diva Jan 28, 10:54
  - crud. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 28, 10:52
- I haven't seen citizen kane. I have seen Bogey's maltese falcon, though. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 28, 10:47
I've written off everything before 1980, and everything in the past year keeps getting higher priority than anything before that. - Max Jan 28, 10:45 1
- Agree, I turn on TMC every once in a while and catch movies I wanted to see - amoxy Jan 28, 10:49
Godfather, Casablanca -- nm - Strongbad Jan 28, 10:45 3
- I saw Godfather before I could appreciate it. I need to re-watch that. -- nm - MDH Jan 28, 10:53
- Godfather is probably my single most egregious omission. -- nm - znufrii Jan 28, 10:52
- I have seen both of these. Worth watching. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 28, 10:46
Too many to name, and the list is only getting longer now that I have kids. - musubi Jan 28, 10:44
I can think of none. -- nm - CQ Jan 28, 10:43
*pulls up the AFI 100* - znufrii Jan 28, 10:43 5
- just went through the list, I'm 31/100 -- (link) - znufrii Jan 28, 10:49 4
  - [deleted]
  - 56 that I am sure of. I saw a bunch of them really young though and there might be a few more. Plenty i should revisit. - Andie Jan 28, 11:05
  - 75/100. - Diva Jan 28, 11:04
  - I've only seen 26. Womp. -- nm - MDH Jan 28, 10:57
