CaptainJackSparrow Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Of those I have only watched Gone With the Wind, I will watch Citizen Kane next week at film studies. BTW, voice your opinion in my Zany Daffy thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rukaio101 Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 I havn't seen any of those. What a useful and constructive post.... Out of that list, I've only seen Strangers on a Train, Seven Samurai, Great Escape, Godfather Part II, Full Metal Jacket and Pan's Labyrinth. Out of the lot, I like Pan's Labyrinth the most, although Fight Club comes pretty close. So yeah. Watch those two first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the lot, I like Pan's Labyrinth the most, although Fight Club comes pretty close. So yeah. Watch those two first. Fight Club it is since you both mentioned it!
