I haven't seen any Star Wars, Star Trek, Indiana Jones, Rocky, Jaws, Superhero films, etc, etc. Only saw some James Bond a few years ago to see what I was missing. Not a lot as far as I was concerned.
I just don't have any interest in 'action films'. There are only so many screeching tyres, gunshots, explosions, plane crashes, etc until it all blends into one.
Was talking to a guy a couple of years younger than me last year who is a huge fan of action films, sci fi and superheros and he actually couldn't believe it when I reeled the list of films I had never seen or modern film stars I didn't know. 'Where have you been all your life. You haven't lived,' he told me.
So while he had spent his life watching movies I had spent it shagging prossies. I don't know which one of us had actually lived.
Maybe neither of us.
