I saw Casablanca for the first time ever just a few months ago. It didn't impress att all, in fact I thought it was mediocre

Jaws, is there anyone who hasn't seen Jaws?

I've never seen Spartacus.

Well, I have.

[Bored Of Education]

I've never seen "The Sound Of Music", "Casablanca" or "Gone With The Wind" and I can't remember seeing "The Wizard Of Oz"

[Wyatt Earp]

I've made it a firm policy never to see The Sound Of Music. Though I have seen snatches. As it were.

Casablanca is actually very good.

All right, if we're going to do this seriously, I've not seen any of those either, nor Psycho.

List of the top-grossing films of all time (inflation adjusted)

I've only seen 4 of the top 24 films, (the original 3 Star Wars films + The Sting) though I have seen a higher proportion of the rest of the list - 28 overall.

Me. I've owned it on DVD for years, but keep forgetting to watch it every single Christmas.

I expect this thread to continue for another two pages, until it reaches the conclusion that, no … there aren't any films that everyone has seen.

[Cavalry Trouser Tips]

I agree. So instead, here's a film that everybody should see.

That's very good!

Never seen It's A Wonderful Life in its entirety, but the last ten minutes are enough to put me off watching the rest.

I've never seen Grease.

IThe only one listed so far I haven't seen is The Sound Of Music. Of the top 25 in the list linked to above, I haven't seen TSOM, or The Lion King, and I'm not sure about The Ten Commandments. I have an extremely vague memory of watching it as a child, but I could be thinking of The Greatest Story Ever Told or some other biblical epic.

You're missing out. It's a fascinating fillum about living in and trying to escape from a small town. Until the last ten minutes...

It's the only film that will ever make you cheer for the Nazis.

The Great Escape. Everyone in the UK has seen the Great Escape, it was on BBC1 on Christmas Day after the Queen's Speech every year from 1967 until about 2004.

[Amor de Cosmos]

Yes but Everyone doesn't live in the UK. (or anywhere else for that matter.)

Yeah, tell him about The Hockey Sweater, Amor.

[Furtho]

I've never seen The Great Escape, or Jaws.
