So Star Wars Episode 4 is currently playing on CBC right now, and what a great classic. This made me wonder what movies that don't get boring no matter how many times you've watched them. Here's a few of mine:

Star Wars Eps 3, 4, 5
Godfather 1 & 2
Pulp Fiction
The Matrix
Goodfellas

Feel free to contribute!

I have to watch "Groundhog Day" at least once a year.


Pretty much anything with Bill Murray I can watch a dozen times over.

 

[Duck of Death]

The Shawshank Redemption

 

[Bob White]

Face Off
Nightmare Before Christmas
Enter the Dragon
Tombstone
Double Impact
Pulp Fiction

 

[jenov4]

Shawshank was great, but it got a little slow at times. I really enjoyed that movie though. Groundhog Day was great though.

Another one to add: Memento (what a mind fuck!)

 

[BruceWayne]

Batman
Batman Returns
Living Daylights
Chungking Express

 

[Iceman]

All those (yes, anything with Bill Murray) except Goodfellas and Godfathers (too depressing for me)

add Shawshank, Die Hard and Die Hard III, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Monty Python's Holy Grail, anything by M. Night Shyamalan and most things by Hitchcock and Billy Wilder (Double Indemnity OWNZ), It's a Wonderful Life, Terminator 2: FINARU JUDGAMENT.

Probably more, but I'm sleepy.

I've watched This Is Spinal Tap more times than I can count. The documentary Another State of Mind is a beauty and Evil Dead 2 is another obvious choice

 

[pnjtony]

[Rabid Wolverine]

So...


Ghostbusters

Evil Dead 2
Army Of Darkness
Dirty Work

Batman Returns
Bullitt
The Big Lebowski

well, this is just turning into a listing of all of my favorite movies, so I'll just stop now.

 

[firex]

The Goonies

 

[Willco]

I like how Big Trouble in Little China gets respect after I mention it. Amateurs.

... And then Error Macro drops Evil Dead II in the mix. What a "trendy" wannabe!

There's also an 80s classic missing from all these lists. I'll try to let you guys guess, then I'll give the director and if nobody gets it, I will track you all down by IP address and murder you in your sleep!

[Willco]

Nobody? Anyone?

Okay. First hint:

The director of this gem was Brian DePalma.

 

[Duck of Death]

Scarface? The Untouchables? Those are his only two films I can remember from the 80s

 

[android]

I said Scarface....so The Untouchables

 

[Willco]

The Untouchables?

... Damn straight! NOW WHAT ARE YOU PRE-PARED TO DO?

 

[GXAlan]

No one's mentioned Back to the Future ?

 

[Firest0rm]

GhostBusters
The Untouchables
Transformers: The Movie
Most Pink Panther Movies

Thats what I can think of right now. There are probably a few more

 

[Willco]

No one's mentioned Back to the Future ?

Now that movie does getting boring after repeated viewings. I can watch the first one and the second every now and then, but I couldn't imagine watching them every time and not getting bored.

The third one? Might as well toss your DVD away!

GhostBusters
The Untouchables
Transformers: The Movie
Most Pink Panther Movies

Thats what I can think of right now. There are probably a few more

OH SO NOW PEOPLE START MENTIONING THE UNTOUCHABLES!

 

[android]

You wanna know how you do it? Here's how, they pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send on of his to the morgue! That's the Chicago way, and that's how you get Capone! Now do you want to do that? Are you ready to do that?
