I watched this so often as a kid, I could quote the entire thing verbatim from start to finish.

Heat, Groundhog Day, Alien, Blade Runner

Groundhog Day annual rewatch!

[–] Candelestine 9 points 2 years ago

Starship Troopers. It doesn't matter what mood I was in, I will be in a better one by the time it finishes. Also makes for excellent background for household chores, once you have the whole film basically memorized.

How the hell have neither Mean Girls or The Princess Bride been posted yet?? Those are, like, the most quotable and fun movies ever.

There's many but the classic action ones, for me, are The Rock, Con Air, Patriot Games, The Sum of All Fears, Air Force One, Starship Troopers, Pacific Rim, and Die Hard/er.

On the lighter side, I'll always watch Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Superbad, Anchorman, This is the End, Hot Tub Time Machine, Pirates of the Caribbean, Blazing Saddles, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, and The Emperor's New Groove.

The Back to the Future trilogy. It'd only be a slight exaggeration to say I've watched those movies hundreds of times.

Remember the Titans. I don't care if it's 5 minutes in or 5 minutes from the end, I will sit and watch it.

"You make sure they remember, forever, the night they played the Titans!"

I could watch them backwards and still enjoy them.
