Bigger movie-related sin?
 

My friend is a 20 year old man who has not seen Pulp Fiction.

I am a 2+2'er who has not seen Rounders.

Who is guilty of the more heinous crime?

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

I watched She's the Man yesterday. You should check it out.

rounders is only fun because it's about poker. overall, it's a pretty average movie. not seeing pulp fiction is a much bigger sin.

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

I've never seen pulp fiction. I've actually seen the very beginning but changed the channel because it didn't seem interesting at all.

*runs*

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

Rounders is well worth seeing for Ed Norton alone. John Malkovich rounds it out nicely, too. Definitely a good movie. Don't nit it as a movie about poker; enjoy it as a movie about dreams, even disreputable ones. And the kind of wild, unlikely ones that probably most of us have had.

As for Pulp Fiction, seeing it on t.v. is a really bad idea. This is not one to see cut by commercials.

The 20 minutes I saw of this weren't nearly as horrible as I thought they were going to be.

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

Bigger sin is 2+2'er not watching Rounders. This has nothing to do with which movie is better. Like it or not, Rounders played a huge role in us all making quite a bit of money - for some of us it inspired us to play and learn, and if not it inspired the fish to play against us, not learn, and lose.

It's also a modern "channel-flipping classic" - a movie you always stop at when it's on. Other such movies are Goonies and Back to the Future. The Sports Guy wrote a very long article about the 2001-2002 NBA season comparing it to Rounders. My favorite is "Always leave yourself outs" being related to the Knicks clogging up cap room for years to come.

Who the [censored] cares if a regular guy in his 20's hasn't seen Pulp Fiction? Obviously if you're a big Tarantino fan and haven't seen it you're an idiot, but other than that it's not that big a deal. There are plenty of people our age who haven't seen The Godfather, The Graduate, Clockwork Orange, Casablanca, Gone With the Wind, Sunset Boulevard, Chinatown, Dr. Strangelove, Man With No Name trilogy, etc.

Those are all better movies than Pulp Fiction, but it's not "sinful" for a 20 year old to not have seen them. A 20 year old serious poker player who hasn't seen Rounders though is the equivalent of a professional boxer who hasn't seen Rocky.

23 here and not done that yet.

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

I work in a typical office setting and more than a few people haven't seen Office Space. I think that's a travesty.

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

Rounders is a niche movie for poker fans, Pulp Fiction is classic. Not seeing Pulp Fiction is easily the bigger wrong.

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

the only sin that is bigger than not seeing pulp fiction is not seeing the big lebowski. ur friend wins (or loses)

Yes that's what I mean, and it's not a big deal, nor is it a big deal if you haven't seen Pulp Fiction.

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

I didnt like The Godfather. I win.

Also, i list myself as a film fan, and on my 'film CV':

Never seen Bambi, only seen Aladin and Beauty and the Beast cos someone made me watch them two years back. Hate Toy Story. Never seen Mary Poppins, Casablanca and only some of Gone with the Wind. Will probalby never see them.

Ironically, thought Grease was quite watchable.

Only musical ive EVER liked was Little Shop of Horrors, but only the newer version. Is Blues Brothers a musical, or a film with a musical theme? I liked that. First watched it when i bought it cheap a couple months back.

Bought Big Lebowski then too. Didnt think it was that good. Pretty average all in all.

I also think Citizen Kane is the most overrated movie ever.

then you aren't a film fan. you're someone who likes movies. there's a difference

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

Never seen Jaws or Grease, but I have seen Clockwork Orange, Man with no name trilogy and Dr Strangelove (I didn't get it though (saw it when I was 17)) (I'm 22)

Why not? Do you find some sort of pride in being able to say you've never seen Casablanca?

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

Nothing in particular against Casablanca though i dont know a great deal about it - its just never on TV and i dont know anyone who owns it.

Mary Poppins and Gone With are definately not my kind of movie though - one of which i tried to watch and couldnt get further than like half an hour at most.

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

If you watch it on t.v., you definitely aren't a real fan. Of any movie.

Re: Bigger movie-related sin?
 

Anyone who talks during movies, or doesn't turn off a cell phone. Who cares what movies you haven't seen.
