Interesting to think about. I could easily choose 2 or 3 times as many, but here are 25 that come to mind, in alphabetical order:

African Queen
Amadeus
Avatar
Babel
Balls Of Fury
Battle For Terra
Big Night
Contact
Devil Wears Prada
Hitchhickers Guide To The Galaxy
Iron Man (Series)
Joy Luck Club
Juno (tied with Forest Gump)
Little Miss Sunshine
Lust Caution
Master and Commander
Matrix (Series)
Moonstruck
Saving Face
Star Wars (Series)
Stealth
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li
Taken
Tampopo
Transporter (Series)

This is not my list of "greatest" films by a long shot. That would include things like Shindler's List, Miracle At St. Anna, Lion In Winter, Wizard Of Oz, The Birds, Boys On The Side, Precious  and many others. Actually some of the greatest films I've seen I can't watch again. Such as Saving Private Ryan - I get too emotional.

But the ones I listed you could pop in the player any time for me, and I would be happy to see them again for the "umpteenth" time! 
Thanks for your support.
