I have this strange attraction to:

The Karate Kid
Rambo
Groundhog Day
Demolition Man

It's wierd, if any of these movies are on I drop what I am doing and watch. Anyone have any more? I'm sure I have other movies that I have to watch but these just stick out

With DVD's and such I no longer have such movies.

But I'd have to say

Fletch
Blazing Saddles
Midnight Express
Boyz N The Hood
Jaws

Jaws probably is the single movie I've seen the most in my lifetime.

I hate watching movies on TV. Stupid commercials and censorship.

Censorship_off
commercials_off
:D



Siriusly though, I watched Star Trek Nemesis in HD this morning at work (on at 8am, no customers). I've seen it before, of course, and the movie isn't that great but man the special effects are cool in HD.

Are we talking network tv? I don't watch any movies if they have commercials or are edited. HBO, on the other hand...

Just like everyone else I can't pass up Princess Bride, even though i own it.

Ill stop what im doing to watch pretty much anything directed by John Hughes or old classic 80's films like Real Genuises, Weird Science, Back to the Future 1 and 2 but for some reason not 3, The police Academy movies, or pretty much anything with Bill Murry or Steve Martain in it (EXCEPT Father of the Bride).

Also, though i really didn't like the movie, I constantly find myself watching Wild Wild West with Will Smith. Its on like every day. I never get anything done because i am always distracted by this movie.

I don't think anyone watched "The Beastmaster" on a regular basis unless drug use was involved! :)

Well, I believe his two ferrets were named Cheech and Chong in the movie. Which I really always wondered what they were thinking when they did that

i think it's kind of funny that you dont like Back to the Future 3 but yet you like Wild Wild West ;)

Not in to Wonderful Life but the rest are awesome. No matter how many times I've seen Groundhog Day I'll watch it if it's on.
