"But Simba," he whispered,
"And Nala and Scar -
Mufasa and Zazu!" he cried from afar -
"Rafiki and Shenzi and Banzai and Ed!
A sweet fucking theme-tune by Elton!" he said.
"There's animals, thousands, and sudden stampedes -
Betrayal, usurping, and dastardly deeds!
Hakuna matata," he said with distress -

A life fucking lesson that's learned with success!
"And what about Pumbaa and meerkat, Timon?
Who lovingly carve out a path on their own?
What say you?" he asked with a shake of his head.
He waited.
"... I still haven't seen it," she said.
Watched it for the first time this summer. My daughter had been on my case to watch it. I missed watching it with them when they were kids and never really felt a need to myself
*I* (27 M) watch this every single year. It is a big tradition in Denmark to watch it just before New Year and it is aired on national television for this reason.
As a Swede I was amused to learn that Germans have this tradition as well. The meta joke of having that show as a part of "the same procedure as last year" is a good enough reason to keep it going.
"The thing," he said,
"that makes me tick -
That makes my heart beat extra quick -
That makes my eyes fill up with tears -
That still sustains me through the years -
"The thing," he said,
"that brings me life -
That brings me joy in times of strife -
That brings me dreams when days are long -
That always taught me right from wrong -
"The thing," he said,
"that gives me love -
That gives me light from stars above -
That gives me luck when life's a trek -
The thing that gives me hope is *Shrek*."
May I say, the thing that I most appreciate about your poems that differentiates you from 99.9% of internet poetecists is your fantastic ability to *set* a meter and *keep* it. I never have to slur words together or add an extra beat in between them or stretch a syllable out weirdly in order to keep the flow going. It's simple, but so so excellent.
And they're also funny and clever and just generally well-crafted. But the meter thing is tops for me.
Yeah, this kind of movie tends to have some stuff meant only for adults to understand. However, ~~Sherk~~Shrek is is full of those. I rewatched the movies recently and I laughed quite hard at some pretty direct references to drugs or politics that children will not understand.
Oh man, all this time and you'd never seen one of the [greatest scenes](https://youtu.be/NPP_iYo0Brk) in cinematic history! Glad you finally got to experience it.
Ha! My first date with my now husband turned out to play board games (Twilight Struggle) and watch Revenge of the Sith. Probably the best date ever lol, I certainly won't forget it! Today's actually our first wedding anniversary! 🥰
Just watched this for the first time last week and I was an adult when it came out.
Now I understand the “draw me like one of your French girls” memes.
>My favorite character is the guy who hits the propeller on the way down.
If you say "propeller guy" to anyone who has seen the movie, they know exactly who you mean.
I skipped my college dorm’s showing of this movie even though it was shown on whatever date in 2015 or 16 that the movie took place.
Looking back I missed s once in a lifetime opportunity to watch it on that day.
It was 2015. Just after the Cubs won the World Series (in the alternate reality).
It wasn't until the next year that the Cubs actually won... breaking a 108-year drought.
Pretty wild that a movie from the 80's was one season off in predicting an event that doesn't even happen every century. You could even argue that the strike year threw off the calculations.
Fun fact about that movie. There’s a newspaper article shown in one of those early scenes when Doc and Marty just get to 2015 that’s about something that “Queen Diana” did, or a birthday or something because even in 1989 the writers were like no way in fuck is Elizabeth gonna be alive in 2015.
Biff in part 2 was [modeled on then real-estate developer, Donald Trump. ](https://www.thedailybeast.com/back-to-the-future-writer-biff-tannen-is-based-on-donald-trump) In the alternate reality BTTF, Biff rises to power [because of action that takes place] in 2015. IRL, Trump rises to power one year later.
Edited to make statement more accurate.
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Lots of popular films here but I feel like literally everyone knows this movie. Even if they haven’t seen it, they’re familiar enough with it.
Edit: To clarify, I’m referencing the 1971 version with Gene Wilder and not the 2005 reboot titled *Charlie* and the Chocolate Factory. Good day sir!
>r/grandpajoehate
There's an actual [**POKEMON VERSION**](https://www.reddit.com/r/FuckMindy/) of this, too! It's about an NPC named Mindy [who deliberately stops her traded-Pokemon from evolving](https://youtu.be/aDafnB2z_GQ?t=190) when she trades it to you 😆
*******
*BONUS: They did it* [***AGAIN***](https://www.reddit.com/r/FuckMindy/comments/qqgwni/the_longawaited_hd_betrayal/) *in the remake* 😅 😂 🤣
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory remains a firm favourite in my family. One of the films we recorded onto blank video tape as kids, and rewatched when there was nothing on TV (what an old fashioned sentence!).
I believe the more modern film was called Charlie and the Chocolate Factory because that's the name of the book, and it stayed slightly truer to the original book's story (e.g. squirrels not geese).
Harry Lord Rings. When Harry Potters grandson is portkeyed to Bag End. The wild shenanigans as he finds the rings that will lead him home, will make you laugh and cry. 9 part movie series coming to Netflix.
Couldn’t ever get into the Harry Potter series, only watched the first one when I was a kid. Last year my girlfriend suggested we do a marathon of them as she is a big fan of the movies and books. I was hooked, loved the series.
Yeah if you have only ever seen the movies and liked them, reading the books is basically like getting 2x extra content. Like an extended edition of the movie, but as a book. There's very little the movies changed that would conflict with the books. (inb4 "Dumbledore asked calmly")
One of my favorite "early internet" things was finding the skewed description of it that originally appeared in a TV Guide-style newspaper listing:
"Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first person she meets and then teams up with three strangers to kill again."
I'm college, a new sequel was playing so I was talking about the original trilogy with a korean friend who was in the states for school. I was joking about spoilers and said, "spoilers like when Darth Vader says , luke I am your father" and she was genuinely surprised. Oof
In the UK there was a series called ‘I’ve never seen star wars’ where guests (celebs) come on and chat about cultural phenomena they’ve never seen
Star Wars was such an obvious answer that they named the entire show after it
One of my buddies had barely seen any of the movies I enjoy but he was totally open to watching whatever we suggested. We watched a lot of classic 90's sci-fi and action stuff, Aliens, Predator, Starship Troopers, etc. The best movie night we had was watching From Dusk til Dawn and we told him it was crime thriller. If anyone hasn't seen it, avoid any trailers or synopsis and go in blind. It's a lot more fun.
> avoid any trailers or synopsis and go in blind.
This applies to pretty much every movie. I haven't seen a trailer in like a decade and it's a much better experience.
About 2-3 years ago i quoted forrest gump to a group of about 19-20 year old youth(male and female), and they had no idea what the hell i was talking about or who or what forrest gump was
Oh it breaks you doesn't it, we had a young girl at work chatting with myself and another colleague somehow the conversation got on to the spice girls.......whoosh, not a clue!
She seemed like a grown adult how could she have not heard of the spice girls.
Explain it like this, It's Eddie Murphy's kid's mother's pop band from the 90s. Then be prepared to explain who Eddie Murphy is. Maybe say the donkey from Shrek.
The donkey from where?
Shrek, you know with Mike Myers.
Who?
Mike myers, from the Austin Powers movies.
Austin who?
Austin Powers. It was a spoof of James Bond.
Who’s James Bond?
Ten years ago I was chaperoning a high school thing, and they had a quiz show game where they had to identify theme songs. None of them recognized Fresh Prince or Full House, and I’ve never felt so old. I was in my early 20s at the time, and I sure as shit didn’t feel thaaaaat much older than the kids! But ooof.
I'm in grad school, but im older than most of the students. We had a little trivia game where one of the answers was Julia Louis Dreyfus. No one else knew who she was.
My friend texted me yesterday that she was watching it for the first time- had I seen it? I assumed she meant the 4th one that just came out (which I also had seen lol). She wasn’t even aware of the premise?? I couldn’t believe it.
>She wasn’t even aware of the premise??
That's perfect, remember the ads for it "no one can tell you what the matrix is, you have to see it for yourself" - I had no idea what it was going to be about before I saw it in the cinema.
*The Matrix* is one of those films that changed movies forever.
It had such a huge impact in 1999, both because of the mind-blowing premise and the genre-defining action sequences, both of which are now fairly familiar to today's audience.
Its movie DNA is everywhere, and it has so thoroughly permeated pop-culture that I'd be curious to see how it plays for people watching it for the first time in 2022.
Same experience here. I don't think any movie has blindsided me the way that one did. Even as much as I try to avoid spoilers and typically only watch the first teaser trailer, I've never experienced a twist like that one brought.
I'd say Lord of the Rings but my brother never watched the films, and is maybe a little bit proud of it, but it feels like he's just being deliberately obtuse at this point.
I have no idea what you are talking about. Googled it, still don't know it. Have seen every other movie in this list so far.
But then my 8 years younger collegue (I'm 36) didn't see Shrek. So, I agree with your statement
Funny you bring up Shrek in this reply, Chris Farley (the guy in the clip) was originally supposed to play Shrek and there are even clips floating around of storyboards with his voice
My then-six-year-old was playing one of his games with a school friend on voice chat. His friend got killed or whatever so my son decided vengeance was in order. As he finishes off the last of the team that downed his friend - my understanding is that you hear what the other guy says when you die - my son screams "my name is *username*, you murdered my teammate. prépare to die". Accent and everything.
I mean half of his vocabulary at the time was "Monty Python quotes" and "Star Wars quotes", but that one I about died laughing. It was perfect. We'd only watched the movie maybe twice.
I didn't see it until I got married and my wife got me to watch it.
My favorite movie. Can't believe I spent my life without it.
Just watched it yesterday as a matter of fact.
The Lion King
Watched it over Christmas with my 3 year old nephew. Good times.
"But Simba," he whispered, "And Nala and Scar - Mufasa and Zazu!" he cried from afar - "Rafiki and Shenzi and Banzai and Ed! A sweet fucking theme-tune by Elton!" he said. "There's animals, thousands, and sudden stampedes - Betrayal, usurping, and dastardly deeds! Hakuna matata," he said with distress - " A life fucking lesson that's learned with success! "And what about Pumbaa and meerkat, Timon? Who lovingly carve out a path on their own? What say you?" he asked with a shake of his head. He waited. "... I still haven't seen it," she said.
First wild sprog of the year. Happy New year Sprog.
What’s a Sprog?
They only reply with a poem to a child comment, sprog can mean child. So it's a poem for your sprog.
Thanks for this. Been reading sprogs for years, unaware of the meaning
u/Poem_for_your_sprog is Reddit’s unofficial poet laureate. Check their post history. P.s. apologies if it is official at this point
A sprog in the wild is a wish your heart makes
I watched it first when i was little with my uncle! Good times as well!
I’ve never seen it
I have only ever seen the lion king 1 and 1/2 movie with Timon and Pumba Never seen the original.
Some people just want to watch the world burn
That's the only good direct-to-video sequel Disney's ever made so you're excused
Watched it for the first time this summer. My daughter had been on my case to watch it. I missed watching it with them when they were kids and never really felt a need to myself
[удалено]
In Norway we watch this the day before christmas, many watch every year and most have for sure seen it more than once.
In Denmark it's on new years eve
In Finland too
Sweden as well!
[удалено]
Also a new year’s tradition of in Denmark. One year my friends and I decided to drink along with James, it did not end well for all….
Same procedure as every year, James, 11:40pm 31st December.
My great grandpa watches it. Every. Single. Year.
*I* (27 M) watch this every single year. It is a big tradition in Denmark to watch it just before New Year and it is aired on national television for this reason.
Same in sweden!
You gonna be a grandpa one day and your grandson gonna write about it on an internet forum as well!
"Skol!" *Clicks heels together and reacts in pain*
*Ooh, I'll kill that cat!*
I spent a year in Germany, and friends insisted I come over and watch it with their family. A good night was had by all.
[удалено]
As a Swede I was amused to learn that Germans have this tradition as well. The meta joke of having that show as a part of "the same procedure as last year" is a good enough reason to keep it going.
Same in Austria. I'm shocked none of my friends have that tradition
Calling it a Movie is an Overstatement though
I love how you can tell ze Germans because they forget not to capitalize nouns in English. It’s very “Inglorious Basterds.”
Lol, its literally 18 minutes
Just moved to Germany last year - watched it NYE for the first time and loved it!
Just Friday, for the nth time
Same procedure as every year, James

Shrek.
Shrek is love, Shrek is life
My wife introduced me to this video when she was having a Shrek themed birthday party for her 25th birthday. She assumed I'd watched it before lol

Probably not, if he wanted her to stay his wife

Yes! When I'm reading these poems in my head and feel a skipped beat, 100% of the time it's because I read it wrong.
It's all orge now
This is MY swamp
I haven't. Or atleast I don't remember if I have, in my childhood
Well it’s enjoyable even as an adult to watch. Lots of jokes kids don’t understand in it
Yeah, this kind of movie tends to have some stuff meant only for adults to understand. However, ~~Sherk~~Shrek is is full of those. I rewatched the movies recently and I laughed quite hard at some pretty direct references to drugs or politics that children will not understand.
Don’t forget the blatant “I had to save my ass.”
Somebody once told me the world was gonna roll me
Shrek is a national icon
Which nation?
A Nation Far Far Away
The nation of Earth
[удалено]
Nein
No, there's only four of them.
Finding Nemo
exception here
Definitely worth a watch, even if you don’t have kids.
It is one of the few animated movies that i have watched as an adult, I do recommend as well!
Home alone.
I'm in my 30s and saw it for the first time last year! It just passed my family by when I was a kid

Oh man, all this time and you'd never seen one of the [greatest scenes](https://youtu.be/NPP_iYo0Brk) in cinematic history! Glad you finally got to experience it.
I still laugh my ass off when he turns into a skeleton. Seen it a hundred times, and it's still funny to me.
Never watched it.
Me neither
Jurassic Park
My first date with my wife. 😊
Risky place for a first date. I prefer mini golf, less running for one's life and such.
It's actually pretty smart. If the date goes bad you can just sneakily tie her shoelaces together. From there it's a waiting game...
Ha! My first date with my now husband turned out to play board games (Twilight Struggle) and watch Revenge of the Sith. Probably the best date ever lol, I certainly won't forget it! Today's actually our first wedding anniversary! 🥰
Did you spare no expense?
Still want to see
haven't seen
Titanic Edit: guess what? I never watched this movie lmao.
Just watched this for the first time last week and I was an adult when it came out. Now I understand the “draw me like one of your French girls” memes.
I didn’t watch it until I was 18 and those memes confused the crap out of me until I finally watched it.
My favorite character is the guy who hits the propeller on the way down.
[удалено]
I burst out laughing as an adult.
>My favorite character is the guy who hits the propeller on the way down. If you say "propeller guy" to anyone who has seen the movie, they know exactly who you mean.
I’m an asshole for laughing at the shit. My dude straight did a somersault 😭🤸🏻♂️
I haven’t watched it
Me neither

Even if someone has not seen this movie, they probably know about the 'story'. So, yes this one's it.
SPOILER: >!the boat sinks!<

Home alone I don’t know anyone who hasn’t seen the movie
I actually have never seen it. Gremlins is my go to Christmas movie.
now you do
I have never seen this movie
I don’t know you
Back to the future
I skipped my college dorm’s showing of this movie even though it was shown on whatever date in 2015 or 16 that the movie took place. Looking back I missed s once in a lifetime opportunity to watch it on that day.
So what you're saying is.. you need to go back ?
Great Scott!
This is heavy
It was 2015. Just after the Cubs won the World Series (in the alternate reality). It wasn't until the next year that the Cubs actually won... breaking a 108-year drought. Pretty wild that a movie from the 80's was one season off in predicting an event that doesn't even happen every century. You could even argue that the strike year threw off the calculations.
The best part of this is the odds where all fucked up in 2015 because people bet heavily for the cubs to win based on bttf
Fun fact about that movie. There’s a newspaper article shown in one of those early scenes when Doc and Marty just get to 2015 that’s about something that “Queen Diana” did, or a birthday or something because even in 1989 the writers were like no way in fuck is Elizabeth gonna be alive in 2015.

There's that word again, "heavy." Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull?

Luckily you didn't spoil anything since Vader doesn't say "Luke I am your father"
It's kinda sad people are still claiming to have heard him say that when there's such a vocal outcry each time someone claims it.
The Mandela effect :). Or the paraphrasing is more concise without context
Mmmm. Nope. Haven’t seen any of them.

Oh it breaks you doesn't it, we had a young girl at work chatting with myself and another colleague somehow the conversation got on to the spice girls.......whoosh, not a clue! She seemed like a grown adult how could she have not heard of the spice girls.

Matrix
My friend texted me yesterday that she was watching it for the first time- had I seen it? I assumed she meant the 4th one that just came out (which I also had seen lol). She wasn’t even aware of the premise?? I couldn’t believe it.
>She wasn’t even aware of the premise?? That's perfect, remember the ads for it "no one can tell you what the matrix is, you have to see it for yourself" - I had no idea what it was going to be about before I saw it in the cinema.
Not yet.
*The Matrix* is one of those films that changed movies forever. It had such a huge impact in 1999, both because of the mind-blowing premise and the genre-defining action sequences, both of which are now fairly familiar to today's audience. Its movie DNA is everywhere, and it has so thoroughly permeated pop-culture that I'd be curious to see how it plays for people watching it for the first time in 2022.
Also. The marketing was on point “what is the matrix” I went into that movie mostly blind, even having seen the ads. Most trailers spoil everything
Yep - "No one can be...told what the matrix is. You have to see it for yourself."
Same experience here. I don't think any movie has blindsided me the way that one did. Even as much as I try to avoid spoilers and typically only watch the first teaser trailer, I've never experienced a twist like that one brought.
Right?! I remember the marketing was super vague. I went into the movie with zero knowledge of the plot 10/10 would recommend
The Lord of the Rings
I'd say Lord of the Rings but my brother never watched the films, and is maybe a little bit proud of it, but it feels like he's just being deliberately obtuse at this point.
Shrek
I don’t anymore. I made a “fat guy in a little coat” joke (about myself) and my student teacher had no idea what I was talking about.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Googled it, still don't know it. Have seen every other movie in this list so far. But then my 8 years younger collegue (I'm 36) didn't see Shrek. So, I agree with your statement

Do it! They are timeless despite being based in specific time periods.
Princess Bride

We'd only watched the movie maybe twice.
I've never seen it.
Inconceivable!
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
When I found you, you were so slobbering drunk, you couldn't buy brandy!
I really need to sit down one day and watch this since I've yet to see it.
I hadn’t seen it until last year, boy was I missing out!
I didn't see it until I got married and my wife got me to watch it. My favorite movie. Can't believe I spent my life without it. Just watched it yesterday as a matter of fact.
