Movies that you can't get enough of...

[mykal]

I figured that I would add another movie thread to the list and pose this question.

What movies do you watch time and again, yet never seem to tire of?

For me, here are the ones that top my list:

"The Quiet Man" with John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara
"The Thomas Crowne Affair" with Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo

and whenever I need a laugh I always turn to:

"Grumpy Old Men" and "Grumpier Old Men" with Jack Lemon and Walter Matthau

 

[Limeoutsider]

I like the grumpy old men series, 2 fast 2 furious, and star wars

 

[4Pawz]

hhmm Liar Liar, and My Fellow Americans.

Pawz

 

[Prime]

I think i have seen Blade about 50 times...does that qualify for not getting enuf...lol

 

[BigBrownEyes]

There's only a few movies that I seem to never get completely tired of seeing. I have an old friend from high school who visits from time to time. At some point in the evening, we always seem to put on the old horror film "Halloween" as sort of a traditional thing.

A movie I watch every year around Christmas is "Beautiful Girls." If you haven't seen that one, you should go rent it. It's great!

Those are just two that I end up watching, at least once, every year.

Amnesiac, I will agree with Slapshot as the greatest movie ever made.

"FUCKING machine took my quarter!"


I can't get enough of that movie, nor of The Matrix.

I have seen "Cassablanca" about thirty times, and never time of it.

[Knox The Hatter]

'The Godfather I and II'. I've seen it enough times over the past thirty years where I can sit there and recite whole swatches of dialogue through it, like those two people do in the Diet Coke commercial through Milagros' favorite movie.

"Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides against the family again. Ever..."

"Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides against the family again. Ever..."

Knox I am ALL the way with you! Of course, I'm one of those rare Godfather purests who actually likes "3" too. But Knox, you don't come to Las Vegas and talk to a man like Moe Green like THAT! Thank God for the "Godfather Saga" being shown 100 times on AMC last year. In fact, I think I'll watch it tonight!

I also never tire of "Shawshank Redemption" and a buddy of mine and I recite lines from "Blood in Blood Out" almost daily.

"High Fidelity", "Forces of Nature" and "Return To Me" are on deck though.

And in the Kung-Fu realm, ALWAYS "Enter the Dragon", "Five Deadly Venoms" and "Kiss of the Dragon"
