For those unsure:
X-Axis = Number of Films Seen
Y-Axis = Number of Films People Can't Believe You Haven't Seen
an unseen third dimensional line floating, smugly above the main one is the much begrudged - "number of movies better than the movie you saw and everyone else recommended." If you find yourself traveling along this line, quickly run away. You will not survive the evening.

YES
Isn't that the truth?
oh my God, that is so true.

Oh man how true this is. And sadly I have been guilty of the "You haven't seen that?" line but I'm definitely working on that lol
@Walter, Alex, and Nerd Thanks for commenting :)
@Simon Insightful as ever
@Travis I say it all the time, but I do my best not to sound judgmental... I don't always succeed.
Simon's ellipses comments are even funnier next to that avatar. :)
We should all say "You HAVE seen that!" with mock sincerity instead. "I'm so proud of you!"
Absolutely!
It isn't just other people, though. The more films you see the more annoyed and frustrated you are by the ones you haven't been able to see. It's a frustration that can never be overcome (the more you see the more you find out about...)
