These are essentially movies I will watch if they ever come on TV. There’s still so many left for me to see though.I don’t love most mob movies although I like them. I can’t remember Casino. And I’m about to watch Fullmetal Jacket on IFC tonight.

And no I don’t think Star Wars movies, Godfather movies, West Side Story, or Casablanca are that great. I’ve seen them all several times and I don’t get why they are so loved. they aren’t bad but their not so great really.

And there’s so many good books. read or unread by me which are not yet the good movies that they have the potential to be.

I want to watch Big Fish and i want to see Blade Runner in full.
