| Posted: | | | | There have been a lot of threads about things like "worst films you can't stop watching", "what do you mean you haven't seen..." and "I can't believe I own this movie", so I thought I'd throw out the big one. What films can you simply watch over and over again without getting tired of them? Mine include:
- Fight Club (even knowing how it ends, I can still watch this without being bored) - The Incredibles (My favorite Pixar flick) - Spider-Man (Just loved the adaption) - The Fisher King (Terry Gilliam) - Leap of Faith (Steve Martin) | | | Build a man a fire and you keep him warm for a day.

| Posted: | | | | one such movie for me is Batman Begins.
Everytime I dog sit for my Aunt and Uncle it always seems to play on cable at least once while i'm there. And I always end up watching it, even though I own the dvd. I've actually started watching it on another channel right after it ended. |

| Posted: | | | | Used to be "Zulu", but I have seen it so many times I have given it a rest for a couple of years.
Now they are: "Planes, Trains & Automobiles", "Dave", "Lake Placid", "Godzilla", and last but not least "13th Warrior".
I have peculiar likes and dislikes. | | | Graham |

In laser disc days, around the Christmas holidays, I used to have a Bond week and Star Trek week, but now there are just to many movies to see. | | | We don't need stinkin' IMDB's errors, we make our own.

| Posted: | | | | Quoting VibroCount: Quote: Lord of the Rings (all three, extended versions, please) The theatrical Fellowship is better, the new opening kills the perfect tone of the original. Anyway, a few that come to mind: Aliens Back to the Future Badlands Beetlejuice The Big Lebowski Blade Runner The Blues Brothers Ed Wood Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (Fisher King too, though) Ghostbusters The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Goodfellas Heat The Iron Giant (Brad Bird's finest thus far) Kaze no tani no Naushika Léon Lost Highway Majo no takkyubin Mimi wo sumaseba Mulholland Dr. Platoon Pulp, Jackie Brown, etc. Raiders of the Lost Ark Roxanne Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi The Shawshank Redemption The Shining The Thing Tonari no Totoro Videodrome Wo de fu qin mu qin | | | Erik

| Posted: | | | | Quoting Rage-2005: Quote: 3. The Naked Gun - (Anything Leslie makes is a must for me) Have you watched through the credits? Last time I watched this I was half-watching the credits after it ended and one caught my eye...it was the producer or someones divorce attorney. So i watched more closely, all three movies have random 'credits' thrown in the mix. Was some funny stuff. -Agrare |
