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.
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

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.

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Everyone should see Moon and Primer
I mean to! There are so many movies that need watching, though. And all this dang TV. Not to mention books.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
23! I haven't seen Moon or Primer. I've never heard of them before, so I guess I need to remedy that.
-t, I feel your pain!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I tried to watch Primer, but it was boring.
Moon is a great movie.

move out and draw fire

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Moon is a great movie.
I was really surprised at how good it was, considering its low budget (which you can tell by some of the special effects if you watch closely).

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm stunned that I've seen 13, since I'm not the world's biggest SF fan. (Possibly 14, but I can't swear that I've seen The Day the Earth Stood Still.)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Moon creeped me out. I liked the movie (there are no spiders, snakes, etc.), but there is one reveal that made me go: "man, that is fucked up."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I haven't seen Metropolis (available on Netflix Instant!), Forbidden Planet (added to the queue), Mad Max 2 (the first and third movies are on Netflix Instant, so maybe I will have some sort of marathon one day), and Ghost in the Shell (on Netflix Instant, as is Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, awesome!!). I'm sure I saw Tron and RoboCop when I was younger, but they're in the queue.
Moon was really good, as was Primer.
