Movies You Never Get Tired Of. - Page 4

Obvious stuff out of the way first. Hell is sometimes represented as the same horrific event happening over and over for eternity. If that's the case, heaven must have a giant drive in sized screen that plays The Princess Bride and nothing but The Princess Bride at all times. And Fight Club. Shut up.

Back to the Future Part II. Not the original, not the conclusion to the trilogy. Part II is where it's at.

The Big Lebowski. My personal favorite comedy. I'll recite the lines before they're said and still laugh at the scene. The Dude dropping a smoke onto his lap and crashing into a dumpster with CCR blaring. Never gets old.

The Royal Tenebaums. Great use of music, the whole thing has a romantic feeling to it, every shot filled with something to be fond of, a pet, a drawing, a wooden finger, a bright blue suit. Also, Alec Baldwin has a damned sexy voice.

Adaptation. Crafts something brilliant out of a cop out subject that usually ends in disaster. Both of Cage's performances are top notch.

Pee Wee's Big Adventure. I actually haven't seen this in years, but it was in heavy rotation on the family vcr growing up. The king sized bathtub fight with Francis, the pet shop on fire, Tequila, big plastic dinosaurs. <3

Vanilla Sky. It has Crowe's fingerprints all over it, the good and the bad, but it's ultimately very endearing.

Tombstone. I said throw down boy.

Rounders. It's like the expression says. In the poker game of life, women are the fuckin' rake.

What the fuck are you talking about? What expression?

I don't know man... There should be one.

I don't know if I'd put it into my never gets old selection, but I really enjoyed Hulk as well, I don't understand why it gets panned constantly.

Superman Returns - Hell yeah, I'd pay to watch it again.
Face Off - I always LOL@N.C. when he confuses his name in front of the mirror.
Running out of time - short chinese movie but I love it
Ocean's Eleven(2001) - That movie has a certain style to it so not a single minute of it is boring.
True Lies - funny and good action. Arnald is a U.S. spy; what's not to love?
umm... that's all I got for now.

FUCK. YES! I haven't seen that flick in like 5 years. I used to have it on VHS but I have NO clue what happened to it. Otherwise I'm sure it would be one of my constant rotationals as well.

I saw Titanic 17 times ._.;;, seriously if I still had the movie I'd be at 50 right now. Best damn love/tragedy story I ever saw.

Terminator 2 and Predator I'd keep watching and not get sick of it. Aliens, and perhaps even Star Trek: First Contact.

DVDRick · Aug 19, 2006, 12:05 PM

besides the movie that were named already:
home alone 1&2 - every year I watch these 2 movies,
innerspace - saw that movie like 100 times already, funny funny funny and well done
blue thunder - cant get enough of this movie

I can never get tired of "Fight Club." That movie alone defines my thoughts. I also can't get enough of "Star Wars," "Raiders of the Lost Ark," "Ghostbusters," "Adventures in Babysitting" and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." All of these movies are special to me in one way or another and pinpoints nostalgic purposes.

My other five favourites that I never get tired of are "Fallen," "Identity," "Mulholland Dr," "Ghost in the Shell" and "Waking Life." The concepts are brilliant and puzzling. I love that stuff. It gives me the psychological tremors. Oh yeah, and "The Usual Suspects."

Ditto to that. It's my favorite movie, no questions. I could go on about why I like it, but I'm feeling kind of lazy right now.

Office Space is another good one to watch again.. yeeeeahh.. XD

I gotta add one more (my post was on the first page):

The Great Mouse Detective - What's not to like here? The music blows you away and it's one of so few Disney movies with a different style. It's pretty dark and scary as well (at least I was scared when I watched parts of it today).

Its strange how only one person named Braveheart. That fricking movie should win an Oscar every year for it's awesomeness.

Back to the Future - Part 2 is good. Part 3 is ok. Part one is amazing. I could watch it every day for the rest of my life and still not get tired.

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back - In all honesty, it's not even my favourite of the Askewniverse movies (that goes to Clerks 1/2). But it's so self aware tounge in cheek it's great. It's absurd, makes little sense, juvenille, and constantly winking at you from the screen. I love it.

Raiders of the Lost Ark - Temple was good. Last Crusade was great. Raiders was the best.

The Lion King - I'm a sucker for Disney, and it's the best thing they've ever done. Shame they put out nothing but crap after.

Die Hard - The best action movie ever. I read about it in Ffforbes

Terminator 2:Judgement Day - The second best action movie ever. Hello. Dickwad.

Thats all I can think of right now, I'm sure I'll be back after I go over to my DVD collection and notice a huge group that I missed.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005) - Despite reading the book I just can't get tired of this movie. I won't lie to you, I love the way the movie was represented. The minimalistic style of the guide itself, light-hearted comedy, and the awesome CG. For me at least, it really is like having your head smash with a lemon wrapped around a gold brick.

Well, my top #1 film that I never tire of is easily Dune. There are so few well-done fantasy films (the LotR films only came out recently, and are too long for me to watch repeatedly although I do enjoy them) that Dune is kind of like a diamond in the rough to me. The sets and effects are so well done in kind of a "future past" way that the film will never seem "dated" to me - it occurs in its own time, outside of our technology and cultural musings. I appreciate the fact that there is a narrated intro; in this case it really gives weight to the film's whole introductory set-up.

Many people do not appreciate this film, or think that because it has Sting in it the film is too "campy." Although the film has a solid story (based off Frank Herbert's book), for me the film creates a strong mood, an atmosphere, that is totally unlike any other film made. Because of this, I can watch it over and over again, and it never gets old.

Men In Black - Not on my favorite movies of all time top, but whenever I catch it on TV I can't help but watching it. MIB-II didn't appealed to me when I watched in theaters, but then I gain I re watched it on TV and I couldn't help but love them.

Y Tu Mama Tambien - I NEVER get tired of this movie, I like it in so many levels. It usually plays in the background during my toking sessions ^^
