Smile Movies I'll Always Watch Again

Not in any particular order

1. Stripes
2. Animal House
3. The Dirty Dozen
4. The Good, The Bad & The Ugly
5. Die Hard
6. The Battle of the Bulge (hey, my dad was in the real battle)
7. Midway (as historically accurate as any movie ever was)
8. The Sand Lot
9. Star Wars
10. West World
11. My Name is Trinity
12. Several John Wayne Movies
13. The Postman Always Rings Twice
14. American Gigilo
15. Forest Gump
16. Alien
17. Trading Places
18. Live or Let Die

This is subject to additions.

You can see, as a general statement, that I like funny movies & I like action movies--I like blood & guts movies much less often.

Now what movies always get your attention??

The ones that I seem to always watch are:

Hackers, Valley Girl, and We Were Soldiers.

BTW, you have to be one of the older guys on here if your dad was in the Battle of the Bulge. It sure is good to know I am not anywhere near the oldest here.

I have very old parents for my age. I was probably a surprise. However, I am older than the average paintballer, but age is just a number. Shoot, there's guys in here that make me look young.

There will be more. Oh yes, there will be more...

The Great Escape
Kelly's Heroes
The Rocky Horror Picture Show (SHUTUP! )
Terminator 1

I agree with these from GFGJester's list. I was trying to remember the name of the "Kelly's Heroes" film--thanks for mentioning it.

However, I like all of the films on his list, but remember, my list isn't a list of films I like, it's films I'll watch over & over (Time Tested). Some Movies I liked a lot better when I saw it the first time, but less so the 2nd time.

From Junkie's List, besides the ones already on my list:
2. Jaws
9. Saving Private Ryan
11. Caddy Shack
17. Any Rocky Movies (1st was best to me)
19. Sniper
20. The Professional (nice choice of a film not all that publicized)
21. The Fifth Element

However, I like all of the films on his list too.

Add to it:
Porky's (1st one)
Dumb & Dumber
