Forbidden Planet is awesome, though! MONSTERS FROM THE ID!
Well, look who just popped open a fresh can of venom.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That story about what Greek statues really looked like is excellent.

10! ...there are some gaping holes in my movie-watching career.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Don't plan on seeing Forbidden Planet.
Yeah, Forbidden Planet is very important in the history of SciFi films, but it's rather dated.
It's actually one of the few (only?) big-budget SciFi films of the '50s, so it's interesting to see what they could accomplish back then when not on a tight budget.

Wow, I'm sort of surprised I have 18.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
19 +/- 2
The first four, I'm not sure if I've seen all the way through or just seen clips of so many times that it seems like I've seen them. I may have tried to watch some of them and fallen asleep, not sure how to count that either. Definitely haven't seen Moon, Primer, Inception, or Ghost in the Shell.

Everyone should see Moon and Primer. Not because they're important, just because they're that good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think I've seen 10, but I couldn't swear to it.

I've seen 21 of them. Haven't gotten around to District 9 or Children of Men yet, and I'm not sure I want to see Moon. But my certainty that I will never see Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind unless someone gives me the A-Clockwork-Orange-treatment is bedrock solid.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I've seen 10. Which surprised me, because I haven't seen anything on that list more recent than Brazil.
