I was just watching Knocked Up for like the millionth time so it inspired me to make this thread. What are some movies you can just watch over and over without ever getting sick of them?

Currently right now mine are Knocked Up, Superbad, Borat, 40 year old Virgin, Anchorman, Wedding Crashers, The Break Up, there's prolly a few more I'll list as I think of them but what's some of yours.

Oh and Fear and Loathing Las Vegas.

The break-up? That movie hada piss-poor ending in my opinion. :p

Anyway, I would have to say A Christmas Story for one. I've been watching the marathon on TBS almost non-stop. :D
Also, any of my top 5 movies I've probably seen realistically over 50 times each, that's like a month of my life spent on these movies :p. (Forrest Gump, Fight Club, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Goodfellas, and Blazing Saddles)

I've seen Independence Day and Armageddon a lot too. I also watch a bunch of other Tom Hanks movies quite frequently, you know Cast Away, CAtch me if you Can, Bachelor Party, Big, etc.

haha I love the Break Up, well Vince Vaughn. He's hilarious in that movie. The ending was bad tho. I just watch it up to the part where he's playing Madden. I guess I can't really watch it over and over then I guess. The Departed is really good too, that and Rounders is one of my favorite movies ever.

I love The Deaprted too, but I've been watching it too much lately on the HBO channels. I need start watching Smokin' Aces again. ;)

I haven't watched Smoking Aces yet. I burned it to DVD the other day. Just haven't got to it yet. I've got so much shit I burned that I need to watch. Ugh. I wish I could quit my job and sit and play 360 and watch movies all day. Ah the dream.

umm... none. I can't ever watch a movie more than 4 or 5 times in my life... if I know everything that's about to happen, I can't fight the urge that I could be doing something more productive with my time... like gaming ;)

Blind Rage

12-26-2007, 02:36 AM

Knocked up, Superbad, The Departed, Inside Man, and Bourne Ultimatum.

Waynes World, Waynes World 2, Tommy Boy, Clerks 2, and Starsky & Hutch.

That's pretty much it. Now I own nearly 300 movies and watch them all a lot, but those are the movies that get the most use out of them.

Kind of like V0lum3...I really don't watch movies over and over.

Movies that I've seen more than others:
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Shawshank Redemption
Back to the Future 1,2,3
They Died With Their Boots On
Road Trip
Boondock Saints
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

Meh...I know there are a few more. I'm just not thinking well this morning.

I very seldom watch movies more then once. I just don't get the point. Unless it's a very intricate plot or something I usually don't watch them over. There is some funny ones that I like to watch like once every 2 years or somthing....

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Fight Club
High Fidelity
Howls Moving Castle

I don't know. I guess I'm just not much of a movie person.

My wife calls me a 'repeater' cause I like to watch the same movie a few nights in a row. Mainly because after the 1st night, I can fall asleep without much effort. The few that I do watch are as follows...

Monty Python's the Meaning of Life - Classic movie, love the Holy Grail, but this one is so much better to me.
Beerfest
Super Troopers
Broken Lizard's Club Dread
Mallrats

Beerfest! I forgot that one. I'll never turn down an oppurtunity to watch that! "Make him the anchor, he has the eye of the jew!" (What happened to the quote thread BTW?)

I'll also watch any movie with Gene Wilder or Richard Pryor. Classics, all of them.

My co-workers refer to me as the human tivo, but that's another story :)

(What happened to the quote thread BTW?)

The Quote Thread (http://www.consoleheroes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2321) :)

There are very few movies I won't watch more than once. Some of my biggies are:

The Holy Trilogy (Star Wars IV, V, and VI)
The Jersey Tilogy (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy)
Boondock Saints
Any Monty Python flick
Anything with Gene Wilder
Anything by Mel Brooks

I'm sure I'll come up with 5 more that I should have put on this list, but I'll refrain from editing every time I think of one :D

Nothing wrong with that...the books are fantastic...the movies are great. I've seen them all quite a few times myself.

harry potter books are great, but the fisrt few movies were poor, they most recent is the best because it is the darkest, and harry potter is quite has quite a dark atmosphere throughout the books

Superbad - Saw it twice the first day it was out on DVD. Seen it 5 more times since then. My best friend is literally exactly like Evan, he looks like him, talks like him, and he's a little bitch just like him. People called him almost every day after the movie came out on DVD like "Duuuude, you know who you remind me of?". He had a nervous breakdown after the eighth time someone told him that. :p

Boondock Saints - Can watch this one anytime. Such a badass movie with one of the best plots ever.

Lord of the Rings - Seen the whole trilogy at least once a year since it came out. It's perfect for a lazy sunday when there ain't nothin else to do but watch some orcs get pwnt.

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Clerks 1 & 2, Dogma, Mallrats - I'm so gay for Kevin Smith's movies. :(

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Clerks 1 & 2, Dogma, Mallrats - I'm so gay for Kevin Smith's movies. :(

Kevin Smith is a freakin' God! All of his films are always good and can be watched so many times, another one I liked of his was Jersey Girl, even though he himself didn't like it :o

Snatch and Lock Stock are also ones I can watch over and over, never really cared much for Layer Cake though.

Finally, Ghost, that last scene always brings a mother ducking tear to my eye and I ain't ashamed to admit it :p :D
