What Movie Do You COMPULSIVELY Watch On The Tube Over and Over and Over Again?
Self | August 25, 2006 | PJ-Comix

What movie do you COMPULSIVELY watch over and over again? I am asking that because for the past couple of months I have been compulsively watched Cinderella Man every time I can catch it on cable. So far I must have seen it about 30 times but who's keeping count? For some strange reason, I find myself drawn to this movie. I can't really explain it. My favorite scene is when James Braddock was fighting Corn Griffin but will watch the movie in its entirety or what ever part is left when I check the tube.

It's gotten so bad that I now have the Cinderella Man book which I am now reading. Also, I find myself watching boxing events on the tube which I rarely did before.

So what movie (if any) do YOU compulsively watch over and over and over again?

I used to watch Dodgeball all the time when it was always coming on the movie channels. Wedding Crashers has now replaced it. Also Crimson Tide has been on a lot lately.

I watched less then half of Cinderella man on HBO. The fight scenes were so completely phony and staged looking and the talking scenes were utterly boring. I turned it to history channel reruns.

I guess everyone has a movie or two they really like. Mine definitely does NOT include Cinderella man.

Get the Cinderella Man book. Great reading. Back in the early '30s, boxing was even bigger than baseball. Jack Dempsey earned about 10 times what Babe Ruth did.

The Usual Suspects
On DVD - over and over and over.
I wore out the VHS and had to buy the DVD 2 years ago.
