Rewatched Classic Movies

[Draevyn]

What are some classic movies that you can sit and watch over and over, even now? I've got a couple, one that will probably get me laughed at, but A Few Good Men, and Footloose have got to be two very good ones, both starring Kevin Bacon. I can watch these two movies anytime they're on t.v, and I own A Few Good Men on VHS

The Day The Earth Stood Still

The Itallian Job

The Mysterious Island

Soylent Green

[Rashid]

My favorite movies: Back To The Future parts 1,2, and 3. I've seen each one like 50 times, and still not tired of them,

[ACCBiggz]

A Few Good Men

The Day the Earth Stood Still

Coming to America

Top Gun

The Lion King

The Aristocats

The Big Sleep

Many others, but those roll off the tounge.

It's a Wonderful Life!

How 'classic' is classic? A large percentage of my films come from the 70s and before....

Though I would say I could watch The Sting over and over again.

[GRIFT]

Cool Hand Luke and Caddyshack.

[Plankton]

Man, I almost rented Soylent Green today, but opted for The Big Lebowski instead. I wish I would have done both though.

I watched Freaks just a few months ago. It was awesome.

[Guest Bosstown Boy]

All of the Rocky's, especially IV. The National Lampoon's movies, but in particular the Christmas ones during the holidays.

I second the It's A Wonderful Life love. That movie gets me every time, I'm usually at least teary-eyed by the end, which is always hilarious for people I watch it with.

I am a massive Hitchcock fan, and I can watch a Hell of a lot of his stuff over and over without ever tiring of it, the same with a lot of the better Kubrick stuff (although not 2001: ASO as it's too long and dense for binge viewing, methinks). Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorcese are similar, although they're very mood dependent for me.

Audrey Hepburn films are my personal classic movie vice. I have a major crush/loser thing for her, as an actress as well as for the nature of the movies, which were usually always fun and light-hearted and good for random viewing.

I'll open myself up to laughs and say When Harry Met Sally, which is probably my favourite film of all time. I can watch that twice in a row and not get bored, it's fucking awesome.

[Toe]

I can watch Platoon over and over. I would recommend that.

[reyrey619]

Well, its not really classic, but I could watch Shaun of the Dead over and over and always like it. I pick up new things every time I watch it. Beside that, I can watch Halloween, Pulp Fiction, and Dawn of the Dead(original) over and over.

[Mick]

Twelve Angry Men

Probably the greatest film that doesn't rely heavily on a set or even effects. It's all briliant acting, writing, and directing.

OTHERS:

The French Connection

Jaws

Animal House

The Big Lebowski

And off of the personal list, Twister.

Yes, Twister has a bad plot and bad acting, but the freaking score is so good. That and I've seen it enough to know virtually the entire script verbatim.

[Vendetta]

I've never seen Animal House.

Mock me if you will...I'll be mocking your mother later tonight.

[steelpony]

Blazing Saddles as well as the Princess Bride.. They Never get old...

[Enter Blue Guy]

I'd say the top 5 DVDs that are always in my player are...

Dazed and Confused

Old School

Billy Madison

Zoolander

Office Space

Comedies are basically the only thing I can watch nonstop without getting bored.

[GhostMachine]

12 Angry Men - for exactly the same reason Mick mentioned.

Arsenic & Old Lace

Godzilla, King Of The Monsters

The Day The Earth Stood Still

The Maltese Falcon

Dark Passage - If you haven't seen this movie, MAKE SURE YOU DO!!!

Rio Bravo

[The Dork Knight]

Clerks

Mallrats

Dogma

Blazing Saddles

Anchorman

Baseketball

Office Space

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I agree with Mick about Jaws.

It may end up being on TV and I might flick past it before going back to it and watching it all AGAIN for the countless time just cos it's one of the coolest films ever made.

[ACCBiggz]

I just realised how many movies I can watch over and over....

adding to my list:

Star Wars

Mel Brook's Movies

Hitchcock Movies

Cool Hand Luke

Rocky's 1-3

I love that movie. I don't think people should have any shame in saying they enjoy it because it's funny, well-acted, and well-paced. Thank God Rob Reiner gave us a chick flick that's actually good. Makes things a lot easier for me.
