Humiliation - the movie

chickenfeetWe haven't played this for a while so here's the call for player for another round of Humiliation - the movie.
For those who weren't around last time or have forgotten, Humiliation is a game created by David Lodge in his novel of academic life, Changing Places. Players have to name a book (or in our case a movie) that they have not read. They then score one point for each person who has read it. In the original, an English lecturer wins but has his career blighted by admitting to not having read Hamlet, hence the name of the game.
So what you have to do is comment with the name of a movie that you have not seen but you imagine lots of others will have seen. I'll then make up a poll for the voting. It's more fun if you pick something that has not already been taken by someone else.
ETA: Nominations close 0900 EST 17 March 2006
ETA2: If you want to play, pick a movie. Don't comment with some non unique set theoretic proposition of the "anything that has either hobbits or werewolves but not both in it" variety.
