I've seen plenty of movies . . . just not these. ;o) Although, there are a couple on here that I'm thinking I should watch, if only for their cultural significance. Citizen Kane, or example. We'll see . . . or rather, I guess I'll see. :o)

Consider yourself tagged if you read this. Just copy, paste, & bold the ones you've seen. (Then leave me a comment so I can go see what your score is. ;o)
