    Probably some old classics like Citizen Kane and a handful of others that I can't think of just now but have made a note in my subconscious that I will watch them at some stage.

    And Bourne. . .never watched a Bourne film

    Not a great selection on the Demand player. I was hoping to watch the film Khartoum. Never did see that nor Lawrence of Arabia which I am planning to shortly.

    Any of the Star Wars films.

    In TV, never seen any of Game of Thrones or Breaking Bad or The Wire or Oz or The West Wing or many other series that people rave about.

    Schindler's List. I do intend to watch it sometime though.

    Two films I only watched in the last few years and I was blown away by are One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest and It's a Wonderful Life.

    I've never seen a Rambo movie.

    Also most of the big Disney animations - The Lion King, Beauty & The Beast, Cinderella, Snow White, Aladdin etc etc.

    There's quite a few that I haven't seen but the one that always draws gasps from others (well, females anyway) is when I tell them that I am also a female, of the appropriate vintage to remember it when it first came out, and I have never seen Dirty Dancing all the way through.

    I still don't think I've gotten a proper look at the shark from Jaws..... a cushion over my face usually sorted that one out.

    I've seen it unfortunately. I hate this shíte that if you're female you have to love that film. It's such unbelievable schmaltz. And feckin' 'Beaches'. And 'The Notebook'.

    You can probably stand to miss that one
    The Hobbit prequels to LOTR are like the Star Wars prequels in that respect.
