It's nice that some of the movie channels (AMC, TMC, etc) show movies in cycles. If one of these movies is being shown five times that week, chances are I will watch the entire movie five times.

1. Back to the Future
2. Tremors
3. Independence Day
4. Smokey and the Bandit
5. Raising Arizona


There are some movies that I'll just watch a scene or two evertime I see that the movie is on, which makes it harder if the scene is in the middle of the movie, for instance:

1. Behind Enemy Lines (The missles chasing the plane scene)
2. Gladiator (My name is Maximus... scene)
3. Rocky III (When Rocky fights Hulk Hogan)

Pretty good list. I know I know but I really liked Kill Bill 1 and 2. I guess it really was a chick flick because a woman’s revenge ... bloody and action packed. I think You’ve Got Mail, is a good Sunday afternoon movie when you have a cold. I think my only real chick flick is (after my daughters begged me to watch it) is The Note Book. It was so well acted and very romantic (oh my word did I say romantic?).
The areas of interest for me are: sci-fi, action and comedy. One of the funniest movies was Dodge Ball (yea it was gross but I really laughed).
I'm still laughing over I’ll be Bach!!!

I loved Star Wars...but unfortunately, with every movie that was released, the trilogy was cheapened until the finished product was a much less significant matter than the first movie was.

The original would probably make my top five, as would the first and third Indiana Jones movie (Raiders of the lost ark and Last crusade), and all three Lord of the Rings movies.

Also one that doesn’t usually make a top ten list but is one of the most outstanding movies ever made was James Caveziel (sp?) in The Count of Monte Cristo.

The effects are not “impressive”, the look cheap.

That was a big disappointment for me, as well as all the kissy kissy stuff. Spiderman 1 had cheap-looking cgi in my opinion, then Spiderman 2 had great cgi. I thought Spiderman 3's cgi looked as bad as the first one.
