Film franchises you have never watched and never would watch ?

For me it has to be " Planet of the Apes ". Totally silly concept spread thinner than
butter on a red hot piece of toast. Ferk knows why anyone thought it was worth reviving
as it was total poo the first time round.:tumbleweed:

Never seen any of the Star Wars films.

I generally do not like fantasy films.
Never done Lord of the rings, Harry Potter I did watch once but don't see why all the fuss, never been gripped by Star Wars either (nor Close Encounters).

Thrones however, is sooo good.

Matrix
Star Wars
Bond films

It's rather good and it's a TV series

Pirates of the Caribbean - looks silly and uninteresting
Superman - never liked Christopher Reeve
Harry Potter - wrong generation I suppose. Im an oldie. No interest in watching a middle class english geeky kid fanny about in a fantasy adventure

Rambo
Rocky
Confessions Of....

I haven't seen most of the Hollywood blockbusters. It's mostly cliché-ridden, formulaic pleb-fodder.

I prefer European cinema.

Rocky end of.

The fast and the furious films.
I can't see anyone admitting they have or like them

Star Wars
Lord of the rings
Back to the future


Just don't fancy em

Here's my all-time fave foreign language film, Messidor. It's worth a gander if you find the time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnnWI2yeAQo

The Matrix
Fast and Furious
Lord of the Rings
Superman
The Hobbit
Twilight

A few more probably

I haven't seen a Star Wars film since watching the first installment at The Plaza in 1977.

Not really. I have watched shedloads of Scandinavian and Icelandic TV series but not many films from that part of the world.
I enjoy German, French films and, to a lesser degree, Spanish language films.

Welcome to the CCMB where kingbillyboy has a different opinion than you do.

I've not stepped into a picture house since the "talkies" started and the old piano player got the heave-ho.

That and Back to the future are probably the only ones I have watched, I love the music in the Rocky films though, they are worth a watch just for that.

Lord Of The Rings
Fast And Furious
Twilight
Just about any modern Horror franchise.

Never seen them, don't fancy trying them.

Many of those already mentioned plus
Bourne
Star Trek
Mission Impossible

Probably the only franchise I've watched more than once is Back to the Future, Police Academy and Home Alone.

because of all the ferking plugs and ads for the pile of shit with men ( McDowell ) dressed up like football mascots in ape suits.

Ive seen most of the ones mentioned here, but I would struggle to recommend watching any of them in their entirety. Often there's one really good movie but the rest are living off that one good movie.

Same here.
I've seen at least one of all the franchises listed here except the Twilight films, fell asleep after 20mins of the first, never even tried any of the rest of the series.

You don't need the box set, they're on TV a few times a month.

Not my cup of tea at all..
