I've seen a little over half of the movies on this list, mostly on TV I think, but still probably more than I'll ever see of any movies released in the last year. The most famous one I have never seen would be "Finding Nemo".

I didn’t see any of them. I haven’t given Hollywood money in years. The last two movies I paid to see were Raiders of the Lost Ark and Standing in the Shadows of Motown.

None of the movies listed have a line appropriate for a FR thread comment or comeback.

Even most of those movies wouldn’t be made today. Too many straight, white people.

Didn’t see any of them. Last time I can remember going to a movie was in 1982 for “Trail of the Pink Panther”...Seller’s last. Have caught a lot of subsequent films on TV.

Only the last on the list is worthy of mention.

Secondhand Lions was and still is one of the best movies from any year.

Most of these films don’t mean anything to me personally. There are bunch of films that came out about 40 years ago that do like Blade Runner, Conan the Barbarian, Firefox, First Blood, Rockey III, The Wrath of Khan.

I remember 6 of those movies...

Nice memories of watching movie videos with my children.

Many here would appreciate “Secondhand Lions,” I think.

Just made me feel glad I lived when movies were worth watching and remembering.

Movies from 20 years ago will make you feel old? They make me feel young. Movies from 50 or 60 years ago make me feel old (although they were much better movies overall).

I didn’t find many films in 2003 appealing. ‘Master and Commander’ and ‘Mystic River’ were a couple that I liked. ‘School of Rock’ and ‘Return of The King’ were ok.

Seen a few of those but nothing on the list makes me feel old. Most of those have copies in the discount bins laying around for years.

I love Finding Nemo. It was made when Pixar was nearing it's zenith of story telling which it did the next year with The Incredibles. All down hill from there.

I saw Return of the King but didn't love it because Jackson strayed too far from the books and damaged the characters too much. All the academy awards were clearly for the total accomplishment of the trilogy which I think was warranted.

Secondhand Lions is a good story, sort of a B movie that's a fun watch.
Same for Pirates of the Caribbean. Fun to watch and a revival of the pirate theme.

Saw Elf and didn't like it.
Didn't see the others. I no longer go to the movies but I saw all these in the theater.

I’ve seen Secondhand Lions on TV, none of the others, though I have seen the original Italian Job from 1969. Last movie I saw in a theater was Independence Day.

Worst collection of movies I’ve ever seen.

I’ve seen two of them on the list. “The Italian Job” - Mark Walberg action flick and “Secondhand Lions” with Michael Caine, Robert Duvall and Haley Joel Osment. Fond memories of the latter one as saw it with three generations of family at movie theatre, some now deceased or estranged.

Hollywood lost me before these movies came out. I have not seen any of them. Good riddance.
