I saw Goodfellas 12 times when it came out....with about 10 different people.
When HBO was showing Collateral and Kingdom of Heaven on heavy rotation in summer of 2006....i think i saw it so much i could recite all the lines myself.
The Bourne movies.
"The Breakfast Club" is a classic 80's movie that I could watch once a week.
I've watched "A Christmas Story" about 10 times as well. TNT bought the rights to the movie I believe, so it's on alot during the Holidays. Ralphie in that bunny outfit is a riot! That lamp is pretty funny as well.

I have an amusing story about this movie when it first was released on DVD for rent.Originally Posted by SteelSD
I went to the local video store, grabbed the case off the shelf and took it up to the counter to rent. My wife and I were really looking forward to seeing it. I got home, wife was sitting on the couch, and I popped the movie into the player. It seems someone at the store had, at some point, put the wrong movie into the Gladiator case. We were watching a gladiator movie alright. But it was a porn movie called "Lesbian Amazon Gladiators".
My wife almost choked on the popcorn.

Old movie musicals - namely Astaire & Rogers, and most of Gene Kelly's. There is one movie that I love to watch when I'm eating dinner: Who's Killing The Great Chefs of Europe? - love the locales and the food preparation.
BTW, I've got the 20th anniversary edition of Spaceballs and have been watching that a lot.
Of course, around the holidays - Miracle on 34th Street (1947 B&W please!), Holiday Inn, White Christmas, The Bishop's Wife, and A Christmas Carol
(1951) get ample playing time.

So I guess the question, "do you like gladiator movies," is what we're looking for?I have an amusing story about this movie when it first was released on DVD for rent.

Not big on movies other than comedy there is only one that I have watched over twenty times and it's BLAZING SADDLES. Hard to believe only one person included it. Just out in the last month or so on DVD is EVIL ROY SLADE, an old movie made for TV from 1972, second only to Blazing Saddles for comedy,,, check it out.
I think Black hawk Down has been overlooked too.

Knowing you, that doesn't surprise me one bit.
Steel, I got a ton of respect for ya.
but Independence Day is the biggest piece of crap film ever. Like worse than Battlefield Earth bad.
Dubito Ergo Cogito Ergo Sum.
But it's bad in such a big, blockbuster-y way. I'm with Steel, I have a hard time not watching that ridiculous mess.
