Hmm upon further review I may have gotten a little carried away.

[Anole]

I was just going to mention:
- Animal House

Great movie. "Somebody threw away a perfectly good white boy."

 

[Sammy033]

There are quite a few but here is a short list....

Pulp Fiction
2001
Blues Brothers
Clint's spaghetti westerns
Casablanca, The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep
The Matrix (first only, the sequels are horrible)
LotR
Connery James Bond
all Alien movies
Rocky Horror
Bull Durham
Apocalypse Now
Seven Samurai
Hitchcock movies
A few anime movies.

Definitely NOT on the list is Star Wars. Seen them enough to last 10 lifetimes. Well, I do like RotS. Also, the biggest factor on whether or not I will watch a movie again is if it is without commercials, unedited, and in HD. Or if I have the DVD. As for the Matrix, the only good version of the sequels I have seen is a fan edit combining 2 and 3 into a single 2 1/2 hr movie.
