This is going to be interesting, I've thinking maybe under ten?! Funny though, after watching the Oscars the other night, and all those clips they showed made me want to watch ones that won before. :)

Hee! Yeah, a lot of the more recent ones I've seen just because it's so easy to get my hands on them. I really need to check out more older ones, though. Even the ones not on this list.

You need to see Amadeus. It's sooo good.

Oh, and AMERICAN IN PARIS. OMG. Gene Kelly at his finest.

Hee, will do!

I swear that I'll go watch "No Country for Old Men." I've seen "Michael Clayton" and "Juno" though. This is probably the first time I'm in desperate need to see all the films in the "Best Picture" list.

I should really go back and watch the classics. '-_-

OMG you must swear to see No Country. :P Really this year's crop of oscar nominees is brilliant as a group, though I can't speak for There Will Be Blood; haven't seen it. I'm not crazy about Daniel Day-Lewis, on the whole.

There are so many classics I need to catch up on, many of which aren't on this list. One of these days, I'm going to post a 'catch-up' list of films and check them off. ^_^

Cool meme! Makes me remind my Oscar obsession some years ago :P

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

Hee! I really want to watch more of these.

[sweet-lemmon.livejournal.com]

Oh boy...I wrote *makes me remind*?!

*hides*
