Is there a movie that you have seen many times, but would like to see again and again?

there are at least a few, mostly comedies, my cousin vinny, the replacements, caddyshack.........

Torch Song Trilogy

Either "The Fellowship of the Ring, "American Beauty", "Chicken Run", "The Beautician and the Beast", "Cruel Intentions", "The Breakfast Club" or "Pretty Woman".
My tastes vary But those are the only ones.

I have seen 'Steel Magnolias' about 4,934,423,935.46 times, and I will watch it again and again.

Oh yeah, Confetti just reminded me.."The Breakfast Club" is another one.

Animal House and I've lost count of how many times I've watched it.

   Fucking Åmål ("Show me love" in translation).
   I've seen it several times, and yesterday I caught myself on thinking that I would watch it again and again... Has anyone seen it?

I love that movie, but I don't think I've watched it as many times as you have.

Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet or Cruel Intentions.

Yes, there are quite a few movies that I like to watch over and over.
A Christmas Story
Miracle On 34th Street (the 1947 version)
The Breakfast Club
Ghost
An Affair To Remember
Big
Rain Man
Forrest Gump
The Trouble With Angels
Yours, Mine, and Ours
Gone With The Wind
Paper Moon

I haven't seen any films lots of times.

Clerks I've seen almost 9 times. I've seen Scream 12 times, and I've seen all the Star Wars flicks an average of six times each.

I doubt anyone has!

Thelma & Louise.
South Park The Movie - Bigger Longer and Uncut.

Clockwork Orange
The Crow
Poltergeist

Eat crap and die Drum Eatonton!

There are tons. There are a lot of happy, feel-good movies that don't really have great plots, but you can see them a lot, and still want to see them again.

Yes, there are several movies that I watch again and again. They are Coyote Ugly, Forrest Gump, Titanic, Pearl Harbor, and The Fast and the Furious.

Yeah, A Knight's Tale. I've seen it more times than I can count and I can't wait to see it again.

Oh my god!!! I think I almost peed my pants...there is only one other person I know that has ever quoted anything from that movie to me!

"Un Chien Andalou" I have it on videotape, I've seen it countless times. I could watch it over and over again. It is only 20 minutes long and silent, it makes good video wallpaper. Others that come to mind that I have seen more than once already:

-Buffalo '66
-Blue Velvet
-Eraserhead
-Desperate Living
-Probably a whole bunch more that I can't think of or am too lazy to type out right now...

Glad you enjoyed that. Who was the other person BTW-was it another SCer?

Actually, I just watched Tremors again yesterday - great film Must have been the 4th or 5th time I've seen it in the last 15 years or so.

Gwenyth Paltrow, Jude Law and Matt Damon should be in EVERY movie.
Well, Matt Damon I could do without in every movie.

Superman The Movie.

Prelude to A Kiss & Hope Floats ... both chick flicks that make you cry!

For Hope Floats I cired because I was so happy I didn't have to pay to see that fluff piece.

We're watching Poltergeist again! Mallory's counting how many times they scream, "Carol Ann! Carol Ann!"

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
Star Wars: The Phantom Menace

The two all time great movies of American cinema.

Empire was better than Menace, Jedi, AND New Hope! Not combined neccesarily, but seperaately for sure.

For sure? I beg to differ.

Jedi: The acting was sub-par, especially from Fisher. The Ewoks blow. C'mon, the Stromtroopers are supposed to be trained soldiers and they get beat by a bunch of fudging muppets?
Menace: Aside from the obvious plot inconsistencies, Jar Jar Binks was annoying as hell, and Liam Neeson & Samuel L. Jackson didn't get enough screen time.

vs.

Empire: Dramatic ending, the intro of Boba Fett, the awesome AT-AT on Hoth scene, Cloud City, Billy Dee Williams, despite all the crap the heroes got put through it still ends on an upbeat note! How can you POSSIBLY top that?

You can top it with Episode 2 for sure but thats beside the point.

Don't get me wrong I think Empire is awesome too but I'm just saying that LOTR and TPM are the best movies I've seen.

Empire: Han-Leia and Luke-Vader relationships, Boba Fett, Hoth battle, light saber duel between a half-jedi and half man-half machine.

TPM: Butt-kickin pod race, 2 count em' TWO lightsaber fights, Darth Sidious, Darth Maul, HUGE space battle, superior special effects, double bladed lightsaber... nuff said.

Episode 1 rules!

Is that the thing with Kevin Bacon?
I always felt kinda sorry or the worms. Wasn't their fault they were so big and hungry!!

That's the one. I never did feel sorry for the worms - strange that!

Special effects does not a good movie make. Battlefield: Earth was chcok full of visual effects and that movie sucked balls! Compare to that Clerks, which had NO speical effects (except for one scene where Scott Mosier yelled at Soctt Mosier from a ladder, but that was done with camera moves and edits as oppose dto any computer stuff), which is one of the greatest flciks EVER.

Never heard of it.

Anywho Phantom Menace rocked not only because of special effects but also because of the story. (Yes it had a story)

Lucas couldn't have done it better.

(Why are you even arguing about this with him? You know you're right!)

Yes, he could. He could've Anakin a little older. I had no problem with him being young, becuase young people can be pilots (Obi-Wan said he was an accomplished pilot when he first met Anakin in ANH), but in TPM casting a 9 year old was a mistake. Angain, having him young wasn't the prbolem. I would'nt have any toruble with him having been 12 or 13 at the time, but 9? Ugh! Then, ther eis Liam neeson. Great actor, great character, but his presence creates a nit. In ESB Obi-Wan said YODA trained him! Darth Maul was menacing, but grossly underused, and the pod race, while cool looking, wasn't entirley neccessary. Plus why did Lucas feel it neccesary to unilateraly change the accepted pronunciation of Coruscant? The Radio Drama pronunced the second 'c'. The audiobooks of the apporved novels used the seocnd 'c'. Then suddenly TPM comes along and the C is silent? WHAT THE FUDGE?!? was my reaction. TPM wasn't as bad as Jedi, but it could've been better.

::::::in TPM casting a 9 year old was a mistake. Angain, having him young wasn't the prbolem. I would'nt have any toruble with him having been 12 or 13 at the time, but 9? Ugh!:::::::

Hmm, maybe they casted a nine-year-old, BECAUSE ANAKIN IS NINE IN THE STORY!!! On the DVD doc. Lucas says if he made Anakin too old you wouldn't belive that he was the chosen one and that he was really strong with the force. Making him 9 was an exelent move by Lucas because it makes Anakin believable as a Star Wars character.


::::::Then, ther eis Liam neeson. Great actor, great character, but his presence creates a nit. In ESB Obi-Wan said YODA trained him!::::::

Yoda did train him! You should know that! Lucas says he was trained by Yoda in the jedi temple along with the other padawans. Then Qui-Gon came along and took him as an apprentice.

::::::Plus why did Lucas feel it neccesary to unilateraly change the accepted pronunciation of Coruscant? The Radio Drama pronunced the second 'c'. The audiobooks of the apporved novels used the seocnd 'c'. Then suddenly TPM comes along and the C is silent?:::::::

Is it THAT accepted? I don't think so. Since when do the radio series and audio books have the final word? Who says Lucas didn't say Coruscant with the "s" sound that way all along?

One final word:

BrianW, you aren't the director.

No, but I am a fan, and a fan follows the source material, and the source materials contradicts Lucas's backpedaling in the DVD commentary (yes, I have the DVD too).

And these "source materials" are what? Because I go by starwars.com, Lucas, the movies, and the DVD. Thats it.

The OFFICAl, Lucas approved, books, like The Star Wars Encyclopedia. BTW, I go by the moveis too. Obi-Wan SAID Yoda trained him with NO mention of Qui-Gon. In Menace, there was no mention of Yoda training him. Point, set, match!

That question has been answered on http//www.starwars.com/site/faq.html .

Check-mate.

Again, this sounds like backpedaling by the creator who obviously isn't as familiar with his own universe as he should be. Like, Rodenberry never adequately explained why the Klignongs suddenly had forehead ridges when The Motion Picture came along, or why the guy who played Krycek on the X-Files was seen in Season 1 as a crossdressing Amish guy (don't ask). Double check and mate, sucka!

:::::Again, this sounds like backpedaling by the creator who obviously isn't as familiar with his own universe as he should be.:::::

Yeah you said it: HIS OWN UNIVERSE. He knows all about what HE created, what HE made-up. All this other crap you're talking about is contradictory because it isn't the universe Lucas created! Sorry but its just not worth it to go by EVERY published Star Wars item. Just because its licensed by Lucasfilm doesn't mean its got the OK by Lucas.

Game point.

wow, You guys are really @#*%^!%#!ing

Um, yeah. Whatever.

Uh, vader, ALL Star Wars books and comics and video games that add something to the story ARE approved by Lucas! He was PERSONALLY invovled in the Radio Dramas which I have on CD, and in that LUCAS APPROVED material Coruscant is pronounced core-us-can't, NOT core-us-aunt. In ESB, Obi-Wan said, "There you will meet Yoda, the Jedi Master who instructed me." So, what about Qui-Gon there buddy? Lucas told people he'd had Menace doen for years, but the fact is he wrote it over a weekend with his kid's help, and didn't even bother to watch the other three moives and reading his own source material before going into production.

I don't know why you keep going on about the Obi-Wan Yoda thing. I mean if these radio CD's are authorized by Lucas then the Jedi Apprentice(c) books count too! I've read them an they explain this so called "contradiction" perfectly. If you don't want to read them I already explained them in my comments above. So what about that, pal.

You mean the KIDS books? Gimme a break. They were worse than the Blak Fleet Crisis trilogy which made no fudging sense whatsoever.

Yeah I'll give you a break, in fact I'll just leave you alone to think about what I said. Let me remind you that all I said was that I liked those two movies more than any other. Obviously you had a problem with that and showed me what you thought about Star Wars. You havn't changed my mind so I suggest you drop it. OK? Good, otherwise I'll just give you a cold shoulder.

(P.S. look at this site. It will do you good. )

Even better site. No Hockey, or Comics, or Star Wars stuff, but that's OK.

Grease, Dumb & Dumber, Liar, Liar, The Mask...

Anything Mel Gibson has done, including Hamlet!

Noooooooooooooooooo!!!! His Hamlet was awful!

Noooooooooooooooooo!!!! His Hamlet was pretty good! Not as good as Brannagh's, but what is?

Cocktail, Jerry Maguire and Top Gun.

Big Fan of Tom Cruise.

His dying Hamlet was ridiculous! Drivel! I could do it better myself

Oh an armchair actor I see. I hate you people, how you over and udnrweight kids who can't laid go on-line and prattle on for hours about how they could've made a better episode one. I agree with Ben Affleck. People who waste precious time doing nothing but btihcing about movies all day are donkey fudgeers.

The Last of the Mohicans

I beg your pardon?

As a matter of fact, I have played Hamlet. On stage in an internationally known theatre in front of several thousand people. And I have enough self-respect to know that I made a better dying Hamlet than Mel Gibson did.

When have I ever belittled people who can't get laid? That's your chip that belongs on your shoulder - it has nothing to do with me. I'm an 18 year old virgin. So what? It doesn't upset or concern me. It's not the most important thing in life.

And while I did think that Episode 1 was rubbish, I doubt that I could have done it better myself as I have absolutely no experience of shooting a film.

And as for the donkey fudging, I may have ridden a few in my time but my status as a virgin remains unchanged.

Your remarks to Biggles were completely out of line and you do owe her an apology! If someone disagrees with you, you shouldn't take it out on them, calling them foul, nasty names. Shame on you Brian. I was beginning to think you were showing some signs of maturity, but apparently I was wrong. Talking to Joe that way is one thing (he brings it on himself), but Biggles has NEVER done anything to deserve the way you treated her in your comments on this survey!

I am a 20 year old virgin, but I'm this way by choice. And by choice I mean the few women hat ever wanted to sleep with me were scum-sucking jerks, and thus not worthy of my time or energy. Oh, BTW, I'm NOT implying that your virginity ISN'T by choice, I'm just talking about me. Please don't misconstrude. Although seeing as you aren't a Republican I don't think there's much chance of that. And actually I meant to say Armchair Director. But you see my point, right? It's the old joke. How many actors does it take to change a light bulb? 10. 1 to change it and 9 to say 'I could've done that better'. And I wasn't claling you a Donkey Fudgeer specifically. I was speaking in general terms. Like that butt-hole on AICN MagnoliaFan.

You're 18?!?!

Was that an apology?

Did you think I was younger?!!!

Um, sort of.

I thought you said you were 15.

Oh.

Never on this website! I was 16 when I first registered 2 years ago

Oh, so the Ben Affleck comment was just a joke was it (as you claim in forum)?

What about the rest of it? You know, the bit that you can't blame Mr Affleck for.......

In case you hadn't noticed, I'm rather offended by what you said to me.

Well, I'd think that, as a professional, you would understnad my frustration with arm-chair directors/actors. I wasn't being specific. I said, "I hate that type," and it got blown out of porportion. BTW, I do blame Affleck for eveything. It just makes life easier.

hmmmm...

I'm not a professional......

And you actually said "I hate you people"

But since you obviously want to brush this under the carpet and leave it in the past, let's do that.

Hmmmm what? I was born in 1983, I didn't come to this website until 2000 - by which time I was 16. If I was 15, do you really think that I'd have just applied to university?!

No, I've just always thought it was strange that you were applying at a university after having just said you were 15.

But Kenneth Branagh's was worse!!!

Good idea.

I've never said I was 15. Do I really seem that young?

No.

Thank goodness for that!!!

I absolutely promise that I have never intentionally lied about my age or who I am on this website. I can understand that I may have mistyped something by mistake, but never on purpose!

This is me Oscar, I promise. No facade, no invented character. You have my word

Scouts honor?!?!

(I believe you, but I still swear I thought you said you were 15 recently. Forgive me, my roots are blonde.)

Actually, I was a Guide, but same difference!

Three Amigos
The Breakfast Club
Princess Bride
The Shawshank Redemption
Pretty in Pink
Innerspace
Bettlejuice
Better off Dead

I am sure there are more...

How many times was it?

Lost count! It's bunches!

Bunches of what?

bunches of times?
