Top 50 Films I've Been Meaning to See


Recently I became a member of what is probably the coolest cinema I have ever seen. It’s called the Prince Charles Cinema and it’s just off Leicester Square, I’m going to write about it after my first visit. I was looking at they’re upcoming schedule and there were so many cool things they were showing and it really reminded me how many good movies I’ve seen. (As I’m studying Television Production I spend most of my time watching TV shows rather than films.) And how many movies I haven’t seen and when someone tries to talk to me about it I reply with something along the lines of “I’ve been meaning to see that” so I decided to make myself a little list of the Top 50 Films I’ve Been Meaning to See. I started by going to the IMDB top 250 films to give me some inspiration for the list and then it was over to LoveFilm to have a look at what I had waiting to come my way. So here below are the Top 50 Films I’ve Been Meaning to See and I will be working through it when I can. The aim is to have completed this list of 50 within a year of this post, as I work through them I will post a review on here and cross it off from the list. There are loads of films I want to see, I’ve just narrowed this down to the top 50, roll the film.

Edited: 22/04/2013 - I realised I'd already seen Tower Heist, so I've replaced that with Super 8. And I decided I really wanted to see Argo so (not wanting to have too much Ben Affleck) I got rid of Good Will Hunting.
