Inspired by a post by pokerfan: What movies has the whole world except you seen?
The list for me is ridiculously extensive, but you can start here: http://www.sportingnews.com/blog/expert40/154833 - every movie on the list except for Shawshank.

3. Forrest Gump!
Never saw it, never will....

Will never forgive it for getting the Oscar for best picture instead of Shawshank!

11. My dear CaliforniaPeggy!
You are fortunate. I saw some of Forrest Gump and shut it off. It was awful.

I concur regarding Shawshank, too. That movie kicked ass.

16. I don't know because I don't know what the whole world has seen.
And I have not seen a lot of the movies on the list as well, which means your list wouldn't be that extensive.

20. The original Jaws is sensational, IMO
Great characters, and lots of "yikes!" moments.
