me and buddies watch Kelly's Heroes every 17th novemeber since 2006

The movie I have watched the most is shawshank redemption though.

I like watching any bud spencer & terence hill movie when I can pick one on the tv

As Kenberg, I don't really understand why there are movies where I'd want to see repeatedly and others that I don't even though I like them.

Easy example would be seeing sixth sense, the village, memento or the fighting club, very much about the movie is the impressive end, so watching it mroe than once or twice has not much sense for me.

For a film to be worth watching many times (aside from comedies) I guess it has to end up good, cos if it ends up good it makes you feel good. FE I haven't watched braveheart more than twice while I watched lord of the rings many ones.

I just watched My Cousin Vinny again last night.


Despite having seen this one at least a dozen times, the dvd was by far my wifes favorite Christmas present this year.

There are too many good movies to keep watching the same ones again and again, that's my 2 cents.

The Karate Kid #'s 1043 and 1044 this past weekend - I seem to be unable to get over the fact that the Karate Kid falls for a girl who will eventually turn out to be a Las Vegas prositute.

Speaking of whom (Elizabeth Shue) and the Oscars (another thread), the year Leaving Las Vegas was up for awards, Nicholas Cage won Best Actor for his role in it, and Susan Sarandon won Best Actress for Dead Man Walking. I would have switched the awards and gone with Sean Penn and Elizabeth Shue.

Speaking of which, I agree with Lobowolf (not a first) and also would add that I think Sean Penn is America's finest actor.

I loved the film too.

BTW, are you are sure that your compulsion to see the movie over and over again has nothing to do with the cat in your icon :(?

You posted that before the Oscars, where it was mentioned. Director John Hughes was given a fairly long appreciation, starting with Molly Ringwald (B'Club) and Mathew Broderick (Ferris Bueller's Day Off).

Mathew said something along the lines of "every day someone taps me on the shoulder and asks, 'Ferris, is this your day off?'"

And that's the one I watch quite often although there is no overlap between me and Ferris.

I was surprisingly saddened by the news-for-me that Hughes had died; since first viewing it I have always said I could watch 20 hours of "The Making of Ferris Bueller".

Not possible now.

maybe but there are lots of films that I don't even watch once. or is this just another example of catlike behaviour? :)

Great documentary about the making of another movie is "Hearts of Darkness," about the making of "Apocalypse Now."

Speaking of untimely teen 80's movie deaths...there goes Corey Haim. Lost Boys, Dream a Little Dream, Lucas... What a last 12 months we've had for premature celebrity deaths.
