It only took me 31 years

So, it only took me until my 31st year, in the summer month of July, 2009, to finally witness what is considered by many as one of the, if not the, greatest movies of all-time:
The Godfather: Part II.

I then realized how many fantastically unworthy and downright embarrassing movies I watched before GF2. I've decided to compile an ongoing list of this cinematic debacle. I will continually add to this list as more movies come to mind. It may get ugly. Correct that: it will get ugly.

If you are someone who gets easily angry at such buffoonery, please move on. Or simply chuckle and think, "somewhere, in the future, Roger Ebert is turning over in his grave."
