Just what people were screaming out for. A Willy Wonka origin film. Ffs
I see Hugh Grant is playing an oompa. Are we not allowed to cast dwarfs in the role any more?
racist!

2000 - 2023: I've seen every one aside from The Artist and Chicago. I'll watch The Artist some day but likely will never watch Chicago as I don't like musical films (I like musicals in the theatre though).
1990-1999: Seen them all.
1980-1989: Seen them all except Out of Africa.
1970-1979: Seen them all.
1960s: Seen 7 of them.
1950s: Seen 4 of them.

I'm concerned so many of you have seen Annie Hall.
That's the only 1970s movie I have never seen, and never will.Give it a go
It’s genuinely laugh out loud at times -

I found that one pretty forgettable, TBH.

@MiketheSnow
If you look at 1969-1978 you replace Kramer v Kramer with Midnight CowboyThat's quite the ten-year run.
Fucking 1980 - Ordinary People won ahead of Raging Bull, The Elephant Man, Coal Miner's Daughter and Tess
Great call

So I watched The Artist this afternoon to round off the 2010s. Decent enough movie, but, I can't stand the constant music, it was doing my head in. I don't think I would have liked the silent era although maybe I'd be used to the music if it was the only thing I knew?

i shall play. I suspect I'll be the least watched, which is odd as I love a good movie. Although I tend to find now watching movies is a brilliant way of going to sleep.
20/30s - 1 (gone with the wind)
40/50s - 1 (bridge on the river kwai)
60s - 1 (sound of music)
70s - 6
80s - 2
90s - 9 (not seen the English patient as bud told me is sucked)
00s - 8
10s - 2
20s - 1So thats 31 in total. Equal with Kruse!

I found it really bad.

except Out of Africa.
I think I'm a bit of a completist so will likely end up watching it some day.

It was slow to the point of being glacial. Wasn't awful but I could never watch it again.

For me anyway.

How about Upgrade (2018), it was a surprisingly fun little movie, even for people who don't really enjoy action movies (I don't - most of the time). Really neat camera work in the action scenes.
Bit uneven for me, had some good bits though.
