Wizard of Oz. I know you weren't asking me but I came here to say it anyway.

That's fine :) I might as well tell everone my movie pick. Hmm I'm going with Citizen Kane. I do like the movie, and I do understand why this movie has been consistently chosen as "the greatest movie of all time" but I just don't think it was that amazing.

How can you hate the Wizard of Oz? That's like saying you hate colours.

You're right, it's probably just that black and white part.

The Sound of Music.

I hate the Sound of Music with a passion.

I agree, Wizard of Oz is overrated, but I don't //hate// it.

I think I've just had to watch it in choir one too many times.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

i've seen it like 6 times and i hated it every single time.

Vertigo... perhaps I didn't like it because I had to watch it for a class.

Does Harry Potter count or too soon?

Way too soon.

Is it really considered a classic?

By obsessive fangirls, yes.

Me too! It's just the epitome of over dramatized Hollywood, plus awkward eye contact during that drawing scene.

I love titanic SO much.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

What if I like the Titanic purely because I like steam powered machinery and watching ships sink?

Gone with the Wind. Scarlett is a bitch

probably too soon to call it a classic but Avatar bored me so much. Sure the quality of the picture was amazing and the 3D but when you strip all that away it was essentially a boring version of Pocahontas

i never saw that

Idk if Avatar is classic but I don't care cause I hated it.

The original Nightmare On Elm Street. On Yahoo Answers, pretty much all the questions asking for horror recommendations get someone mentioning how "great" it is, but I think it's a really stupid movie. (Granted, I might have had a different opinion if I was a teenager watching it when it was first released.)

I agree with most of the above. Especially Titanic. Citizen Kane too. What about Annie Hall? I mean, I liked it, but I didn't think it was amazing. Am I going to get slaughtered for saying The Godfather?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Again, kind of like Shawshank Redemption in the fact that it moves quite slowly, but definitely amazing in my opinion.

Raging bull is absolutely awful

The Sound of Music, but I don't really like any musicals to be honest.

The Notebook. I mean, I really shouldn't be saying anything because I'm not a fan of romantic movies, but I'd take the Titanic over the Notebook any day.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I don't think The Notebook is considered a classic, is it?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I feel like it's a classic in terms of "the romantic comedy/tragedy." It's a more modern staple in a movie collection.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Grease, The Wizard of Oz, Titanic, and some of the old "scary" movies.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

The Lion King. It's considered a Disney classic, anyway.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

I HATE The Lion King!

West Side Story (if that counts)

Singin' In the Rain. I love corny old musicals, but it just got ridiculous when he sings this whole number about Broadway that has nothing to do with the plot. It was just for Gene Kelly to show off. That ruined it for me.

The Shining. Everyone says it's amazing and everything but compared to the book it's really not that great. Shelly Duvall and Jack Nicholson are great at acting but I don't think they were the right choice. Oh, and Danny Lloyd was a terrible actor - I mean I know he was only like four but his acting was so wooden it hurt.

I honestly don't like the original Friday the 13th. It's just really boring to me. Granted Jason is pretty cool but I'm not crazy about the movie. Oh also Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a movie I never will watch since Leatherface just freaks me out.
