I've seen 24 of them, and FWIW, I thought The Social Network was an awful film. Fawning sycophancy that avoided addressing any of the genuinely interesting issues.

Not as much as I'd like. I used to quite like going to arty cinemas in my youth. The local cinema - Cinemac (in Macclesfield) is a delight to attend, but I tend to just watch safe films with the family these days.
I've probably seen most films on flights in the last 5 years. It means I can watch films without needing to think "will the others like this".
I watch ITV about once a year, normally for sport.
Am I the only weirdo that doesn't like films? They make me sleep. No TV in our household. Been to the cinema about once per girlfriend.
Ok I have exceptions...
The Godfather
Spirited away
probably few more...
Well I don't think any one could die truly contented unless they had seen:
Michelangelo Antonioni Blow-Up
Ingmar Bergman Fanny & Alexander
John Boorman Point Blank
Claude Chabrol Le Boucher
Jean - Luc Godard Pierrot le Fou
Akiri Kurosawa The Seven Samurai
François Truffaut La Nuit Américaine (Day for Night)
Sam Peckinpah Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid
Luchino Visconti The Leopard
Orson Welles The Magnificent Ambersons
Billy Wilder Some Like It Hot
I am now preparing myself for heaven.
"...as dry as the Atacama desert".

Haha I love how people posting on a forum on the internet can somehow describe TV and the cinema as a waste of time
I’m a visual person I guess and I like seeing wonderful things.
(And no I don’t consider Eastenders or Cash in the Attic wonderful things - like with music, radio, literature, cinema, video games, theatre, art, sport, the internet, and pretty much everything else in life, there’s an awful lot of crap as well as brilliant stuff to be found)
Criticising great films, just because you’re not interested in them or can’t do something else at the same time while watching them, is much like a non-fell runner criticising the Borrowdale Fell race because they can’t run a great fell race but can umm... listen to the radio and do other things at the same time
Watched Hillbilly Elegy on Netflix last night, Glenn Close is incredible, amused Mrs DTR with my inability to speak for about ten minutes at the end a very moving film.
