[/list]Well, after a quick read of the AFI list, I can proudly say I have seen the vast majority of them.
But there are some classics I have not seen...
1. Rocky
2. Lawrence of Arabia
3. On the Waterfront
4. A Streetcar Named Desire
5. West Side Story
6. Giant
1) Caché
2) Amadeus
3) The Wild Bunch
4) Sunset Blvd.
5) Gandhi
That AFI list is ok as a guide if you know nothing about movies but it's kinda silly.
Some Like It Hot 14th - Annie Hall 31st?
All About Eve 16th - Pulp Fiction 95th?
The African Queen 17th - Raiders of the Lost Ark 60th?
Trey you should watch Rocky soon, if only to hear Burgess Meredith say "hehe... digs his locker".
Oops, #6: Kramer vs. Kramer.

1. Never seen Schindler's.
2. There Will Be Blood is pretty much what you expect. Sort of compelling, very long, pretty, and worth is for Daniel Day Lewis' vocal affectation.
3. One Flew is actually pretty fucked up. Goes to the mansion a couple times, but comes back. Ultimately a good movie.
4. I lived in Arkansas. Don't talk to me.
5. Clerks is tiring; to me, it's like Annie Hall. You can legitimately say you've seen the whole thing after watching half an hour.
6. Happy Gilmore and The Wedding Singer are awesome, Big Daddy and Billy Madison are fun for their character performances, The Waterboy and Eight Crazy Nights are kind of retarded. The rest are the rest.
Didn't care for Punch Drunk Love.
1. The Godfather
2. Citizen Kane
3. Gone with the Wind
4. Fist Full of Dollars
5. Apocalypse Now
6. A Clockwork Orange
Going off the AFI List...
LAWRENCE OF ARABIA (1962) -- This is just a movie I should have seen by now. There's nothing I don't like about Peter O'Toole and Alec Guinness riding drunkenly around the desert.
SEARCHERS, THE (1956) -- I know it's a classic, but I'm just not a John Wayne fan.
ALL ABOUT EVE (1950) -- This movie has been sitting on my shelf for years.
DOUBLE INDEMNITY (1944) -- There's no excuse for my not having seen this, considering how much I enjoy Billy Wilder's movies.
BONNIE AND CLYDE (1967) -- I've wanted to see this for a long long time.
SHANE (1953) -- I was supposed to watch this as reference for a movie I shot, so I just told them I had. Embarrassing!

"The list is long, but distinguished"
- Goose
1) Jaws
2) Animal House
3) Blues Brothers
4) It's a Wonderful Life
5) Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
Titanic was on my list by choice, however, i caught it on a flight back from London once. I'm guessing Airport '77 wasn't available
Couldn't really think of any until:
1) Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
Yes, I've seen ET, Reservoir Dogs and Blazing Saddles … but I confess that I didn't love any of them.
I have never, however, seen an episode of "Seinfeld."
Does that count as embarrassing?
Seinfeld might be the greatest sitcom ever made. The only show that even rivals it is The Cosby Show.

I would agree that Seinfeld is probably one of my favorite "things" ever. Definitly needs a watch, I would start with "The Bet". Also that coffee shop (not actually called Monks) ... nooot so great.
