Nope. I have not seen grease from begining to end. I just dont like it. Its not that its bad. I cant seem to get into it.

I haven't seen Grease, I don't want to either. Musicals bore me!

Schindler's List is a great movie. We had to watch the movie and answer questions about it during a class I took last term. At the time I was reading "The Third Reich at War". The books went into great detail about the Holocaust. Between the movie and the heavy subject matter of the book my mind was overloaded with all of the details.

I've never seen Citizen Kane, and only a little of Casablanca. We were forced to watch Gone with the Wind in grade school, I hated it.

I wasn't crazy about Grease. I didn't like the message, which was that being "good" wasn't cool, and it was only after "Sandy" became a "bad girl" that she got the "bad boy" John Travolta. This is not the role that we parents wanted to teach our teens.

1.CITIZEN KANE (1941) Never seen and never will.
2.CASABLANCA (1942)Thought it was boring
3.GODFATHER, THE (1972)Loved it, classic.
4.GONE WITH THE WIND (1939)I love movies of the old south so this was easy for me to sit through.
5.LAWRENCE OF ARABIA (1962)The length is daunting, haven't even tried to watch it.
6.WIZARD OF OZ, THE (1939)Classic, really great movie.
7.GRADUATE, THE (1967)Liked it but not sure if it should make a top 10 list?
8.ON THE WATERFRONT (1954)Saw bits and pieces but really not interested.
9.SCHINDLER'S LIST (1993)Good movie but I was going through a time of being highly interested in the holocaust and specific stories from survivors so I don't know if it would capture my attention now like it did then.
10.SINGIN' IN THE RAIN (1952)Gene Kelly......yum.
11.IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE (1946)Great movie.
12.SUNSET BOULEVARD (1950)heard of it but never looked into seeing it
13.BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI, THE (1957)See above.
14.SOME LIKE IT HOT (1959)ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES
15.STAR WARS (1977)I think its a true classic and worth seeing at least once, try seeing it with someone who loves it. Their enthusiasm is contagious.

16.ALL ABOUT EVE (1950)Never seen this one
17.AFRICAN QUEEN, THE (1951)Snooze.
18.PSYCHO (1960)Classic, won't disappoint!
19.CHINATOWN (1974)Not interested. Isn't it really violent?
20.ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST (1975)Good movie. Worth seeing at least once, but not for the faint of heart.

I can't believe some of you haven't seen Grease?
I've seen most of these except 1, 2, 8, 12, 16, 19 and I pretty much agree with you!

I also didn't like "Slumdog Millionaire" and thought "Gran Torino" was the best movie I saw last year, and it wasn't even nominated!
