Family Man
Lion King

[Bree]

I like lots of movies! :D

Mummy & Mummy Returns... I agree with you there, Becki. :D They are so fun!

Other favorite movies... Serenity, The Cutting Edge, The Matchmaker, Fight Club.

But I like watching most things that started as comic books, anything that has crazy butt-kicking women as main characters, and anything that has any of my Cinema Boyfriends in it. ;) I'd sit through just about anything for Oded Fehr or Nic Cage or Colin Firth.

Gone With the Wind - I just love that film, and for a pre-WWII movie it has hardly aged at all
Star Wars - the original trilogy, not the new ones
Goldfinger - just sums up Bond to me
Top Secret - with a very young Val Kilmer
Toy Story

[Eimi]

OMG!  I forgot Casablanca and Roman Holiday!

[Vix]

The ones I have and tend to watch over and over are the typical ones: LotR and HP series. I also have an incomplete collection of Monty Python but am expanding that.

However, I tend to watch musicals and sing along:
Chicago
Moulin Rouge
Jesus Christ Superstar
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
Phantom of the Opera

There are more, but if I go look at them now, I'll have to pop one in and my flatmates won't appreciate me singing them awake at this time of the morning!

[Jane]

I have so many....

You have more favourites than I've watched in my entire life!

I watch Beauty and the Beast.  That's it.

[Cali]

I can't list them, there are too many...

Last time I tried to narrow it down to a manageable list my head almost exploded.   :cherry:

I could just continue listing my Movie shelves if you want...

[Avery]

I am a rare soul and do not like movies- I do not go see them often, I have not seen many. As a result, my favorites list is probably about half of what I've seen, total. My list also almost entirely follows a theme, if you can guess it :D

Battlestar Galactica (yes, the 1978 version spun off from the movie)
Star Wars
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars: Return of the Jedi
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Star Trek: First Contact
Jurassic Park
Gattaca
Phantom of the Opera

[Bree]

Ooooh, Avril! I forgot Gattaca! That is one of my favorite movies of all time! Don't know how I missed it!

Empire Strikes Back is still my favorite Star Wars movie, but I'm not as big a dork about Star Wars as I was 5-8 years ago. ;) I still have my VHS THX remastered non-special edition tapes though. :D Those were the bomb before the DVDs came out.

The movies I've seen more than anything else are probably X-Men, The Cutting Edge, Empire Strikes Back, and The Mummy. I pretty much NEVER get tired of those movies!

[PastMember]

I have too many favorite movies to list all of them - If I tried, I'd leave one out and feel really dumb when I read back over the list later.

So, I'll just list a sampling:

Fight Club
LotR trilogy
All SIX Star Wars movies (and I LIKE Jar Jar Binks, dammit!)
The Dawn of the Dead remake
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake
Spaceballs
Shawshank Redemption
Independance Day
Titanic
Lion King
10 Things I Hate About You
28 Days
My Dog Skip
Anchorman - The Legend of Ron Burgandy
50 First Dates
Children of Men
Talladegha Nights - The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
Casablanca
Spidermans 1, 2 and 3 (I KNOW it's gonna be good!)
All the Harry Potters (except perhaps the 3rd - in which the story had been butchered to the point of being nearly unrecognizable. This did have the added benefit of helping me convince no less than 4 different friends to read the book - which led to them being addicted to the series - because they were so confused by the movie and I told them how much it left out and they wanted to see if I was exaggerating)
The Island
Snakes on a Plane


and I'm gonna stop my list there... before the rampant and blatant misspelligns escape the confines of the post and kill us all in our sleep.

[Dana]

How could I forget My Dog Skip!  I love that movie!  And Spaceballs too!  And I forgot Homeward Bound, The Fox and the Hound, Toy Story 1 and 2....  And even though these aren't movies, my family and I watch them _all the time_: the complete seasons of LOST on DVD and the complete seasons of Frasier on DVD.  When we can't decide on a movie to watch, we just stick in LOST or Frasier  :D
