The Dirty Dozen
Captain America: The First Avenger
The Hustler
Death Wish
Cheech and Chong’s Up In Smoke/Nice Dreams
THe sequel "The Color of Money" is pretty awesome as well, not up to par with the original but very enjoyable.
 
I think we need to approach it like The Rocky Horror Picture Show if it is too work over the long haul, a movie I am shocked has not come up yet.

I've seen it a couple of hundred times, but then again, I used to be part of a theatrical stage production so I saw it at least 3x a week for a very long time.

Yeah....I have a real hard time digesting anything Tom Cruise did that isn't Risky Business or Rain Man.
 
There are a few movies that, if I skim by as I'm channel surfing, I will almost always stop and watch.

Road House

Pretty much any Clint Eastwood western(Outlaw Jose Wales being my favorite)

Shawshank Redemption

Princess Bride

The Punisher

Enemy at the Gates

The Ghost and the Darkness

The original Star Wars trilogy

...
Oh yes...Enemy at the Gates is also one of mine.

Great movie.

He was very good in A Few Good Men and Tropic THunder. AFGM has one of my favorite Nicholson scenes, and is a move I have seen a bunch.

I have not watched it 10 times yet I think but I surely will and it will go on my list....Good Will Hunting.

Put Blade Runner on my list, for sure more than ten so far. Also 10 Things I hate About You.

The negotiations with the Huron chief is one of the greatest scenes ever made. The Sachem telling "Longue carabine go in peace, Duncan finally acts like a brave British Officer.
 
I will always watch Ferris Buellers's day off if I see it on the tv. Shawshank Redemption is another favorite of mine. Fried Green Tomatoes is also a personal favorite.

I have a pretty extensive movie collection and there are a bunch. There are those movies with what they call a cult following like Ferris Buellers day off ( I own that one ) Similar movies like Better off Dead, Empire Records etc..
I have all the old Bond movies, all the Eastwood westerns and Dirty Harry movies.


But those are givens ... Here is one I have watched a bunch of times that didn't get much pub and its not new.. the 13th Warrior. it had Antonio banderas in it. great movie. Another one is the Rocker ..Rainn Wilson from the office is in it its hilarious and had some good music..

I love movies so I could probably suggest pages of movies.. maybe more later on.

Better off dead, I havent seen that in awhile, Its a fantasc movie.
Mental: Watch Better off dead with the kids
 
I like RR's movies too, though my selection is different from yours.


I like Sam Peckinpah's movies, though I think Cable Hogue is one of his weaker ones (though I believe it was his personal favorite).

I think he needed an antidote from all the violence in The Wild Bunch....just a guess.
 
A Knight's Tale
Any of the old war movies (Tora! Tora! Tora!, Midway, etc.)
M.A.S.H.
Hudson Hawk
The Bourne Trilogy
The Greatest Game Ever Played
Secretariat
Spy Game*
Sneakers*
The Sting*

*I'm a big Robert Redford fan.

I forgot about "Spy Game."

Excellent movie. Redfords character is a perfect example of "no man left behind."

And, IMHO, personal responsibility.

Speaking of Redford, I'd have to add Jeremiah Johnson and Three Days of the Condor to my list.
 
Casablanca
Animal House
Blazing Saddles
Blues Brothers
Dirty Dozen
Magnificent Seven
Patton
The Longest Day
The Lord of the Rings (all three)
Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan
Star Wars: IV, V and VI
True Grit (original)
Gettysburg
 
The Pirates of the Caribbean series. Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightly, and, my favorite, Geoffrey Rush as Captain Hector Barbossa.

Youre probably right, I think he's better at the violent stuff though. :mrgreen: I have most of Peckinpah's movies (Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, Cross of Iron, Straw Dogs, Ride the High Country, and the others I already mentioned) in my huge DVD collection.

2001 A Space Odyssey; over 30 times since 1968.

I really enjoyed Cross of Iron.

I do have a few movies and TV show reruns that I watch over again........... every now and then. I also have a few that I like to watch over the holidays as sort of a fun tradition.

Over and Over:

Tombstone........ Val Kilmer had some classical & quotable one liners in that movie.
Mash TV episodes and movie.... probably seen every episode 10 times.
Most any submarine movie....... K-19 (The widowmaker) & (Das Boot)
Lord Of The Rings Trilogy......the only fantasy/Trilogy that I have ever taken the time to read and watch in my lifetime.
Most any Paul Newman movie............ particularly.....Nobody's Fool 1994
Most any Bogie and Bacall movies.

Holidays:

Grumpy Old Men I & II................. The best tag team actors ever............ Lemon & Matthau

Submarine movies: My favorite is The Enemy Below. Curt Jurgens, encouraging a senior crewman while under severe depth charge attack: "We build them good in Germany, Eh Heine?"
 
An excellent film that received too little attention and is replayed too seldom. Final scene when James Mason says: "Come. I'll take you where the Iron Crosses grow."

Great quote. but I think he said it to Maximillion Schell.

another one is where he tells the two Wermacht officers (James Mason and the other guy, who incidentally also happens to be in Cable Hogue) ..."Just because you two officers are more enlightened than most, does not mean I hate you any less".

Great movie, and that was a great line! :bravo:

I don't recall to whom he said it. Schell is likely correct. My favorite character after Mason is James Coburn as a wily enlisted veteran of the Eastern Front.

For serious movies, Casablanca...especially bearing in mind that it was made in 1942, when the outcome of WWII was still very much in doubt. It had all the great themes - honor, duty, courage, bravery, romance, love, compassion...all in a time of near-hopeless desperation. It was the perfect movie. And - from the guy's point of view - yeah, we can have a great love story and be chock-full of testosterone, the little guy facing a monstrous war machine, at the same time.

It was indeed the perfect movie. And I get teary every time the customers of Rick's Cafe Americain begin singing La Marseillaise as their only means of rebellion against the Nazis. It's the most patriotic scene in any movie I can think of, bar none. Damn, but that does make a man want to take up arms against the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune and, by opposing, end them!

Damn. Watched the scene again....
