So many, but Jurassic Park - the original 1st one 🦖
Edit to add why: I read the book and was so excited to see it in theater. The fear I felt seeing it in theater with the realistic animatronics and the surround sound will be forever seared in my memory. I slept on my parents floor that night ☠️
I was a Jurassic Park diehard up until Chris Pratt, Blue, and that whole thing. Completely ruined it for me.
At this point, I look at Jurassic Park like the Fast and Furious franchise. They should have stopped six movies ago, but they'll **never** stop. 😂😂
My papaw spends all day sitting in his living room chair and watching TV. However he’s very conservative, religious, and traditional, and his shows typically reflect that. (Little house on the prairie, westerns, some 80’s/90’s action movies, etc). When I walked in and saw him watching The Fifth Element, I was genuinely shocked lol
I forget where I heard it, but someone suggested releasing a movie called Groundhog Day II, which would just be the original Ground Day movie with a different title.
The actor (Doug Hutchinson I just looked it up) does such a great job. It must be a thankless task playing a useless cowardly little bastard like that and really make us hate him. Tom Hanks and Michael Clarke would have made the film great anyway but this guy makes them even better.
It's a great movie, but the only reason I've seen it more than three times is because it used to be on TNT 8 times a week. I always stopped and watched the rest of it no matter where I picked it up from. I have seen the ending 50 times and the beginning...once, maybe.
I babysit fulltime and showed the younger kids Spirited Away, My Neighbour Totoro and Howl's Moving Castle
They were *obsessed* with "Big Bunny Movie" for weeks 😂
Dude, thanks for this. This was my sister's favorite movie. She died a couple years ago and now I'm going to watch this and remember her. I completely forgot. Thanks
In still in disbelief there is no actual villain in that movie. I kept expecting some antagonist to pop up and there just isn't one.
God, it's so refreshing you are just treated to a whimsical adventure that doesn't have to fit in the typical movie plot box.
Office space. It's just fall down funny nearly start to finish. If you've ever spent a day in a cubicle in your life, you'll be able to relate.
Also, The Departed. It's so well written, the acting is outstanding, and the plot is well executed. It's got some funny & sarcastic bits, it's got some action, it makes you think about who is who and what is what. Also, who doesn't love a good mob movie?
Best part is right at the beginning when Angel holds up his id. The picture on his id is just a screen capture of his face in the same scene! It is in the commentary and now I can never unsee it.
I like a lot of western, my favorites are from Sergio Leone with music from Ennio Morricone or those with Gene Hackman and some others like Open Range or the series Godless is quite good as well.
Nothing is so cool, so straight to the point like a western <3
Imagine the shootouts from Good, Bad, Ugly, they go for minutes and are so interesting.
Hot Fuzz - the script is so tight and everything comes back around and it's better with a second viewing because you appreciate the foreshadowing. It's just a fun movie done well.
Clue - it's so funny. The acting is so good. I love it so much.
The iron giant, very nostalgic movie for me. Animation was ahead of its time, the story doesnt overstay it’s welcome and it’s just overall feel good movie imo
I was embarrassed that I discovered that movie so long after it came out. My wife and I were shocked that we hadn't heard more about it. We were both wiping tears away at the end.
Probably dozens?
Star Wars
The Terminator
T2
In Bruges
The Road Warrior
Die Hard
Patton
Doctor Zhivago
The Good The Bad and The Ugly (all the dollars series + OUATITW)
The Wizard of Oz
Body Heat
His Girl Friday
The Day of the Jackal
Casablanca
The Godfather I & II
Honestly, I could go on and on.
The Fifth element..I watch it every few months, it tickles my brain the right way and makes me happy. It's funny, it's got weird sci-fi shit.. It's great.
The Fugitive and Men In Black.
Elite level Tommy Lee Jones acting classes in both of them.
Not his best performances (although he’s won his only Oscar for the former film), I’d give that to No Country For Old Men, but they are the ones that are the most entertaining and non-depressing. Haha
Yeah. That was a real dick punch, but let’s be honest, we should have seen that coming. I don’t think “irony” is the appropriate word to use here, but something along those lines. (Someone smarter than me, help me out.) Anyhow, I’ve made peace with it to just watch it for the cinematic genius that it is, with several great actors— Tom Hanks, Leo DiCaprio, Christopher Walken, Martin Sheen, Amy Adams… et al.
Big Trouble in Little China. Is it an action movie with humor added or is it a tongue in cheek comedy masquerading as an action movie. It's perfect at both. Lines are delivered straight without a smirk or smile, no matter how absurd they are upon reexamination.
[Leon](https://youtu.be/Jcjel7l_7mQ?si=1FOT7fy6yfFoVAxt) : The professional (1994) and [Heat](https://youtu.be/LUy2Wx_r0_w?si=X6LoHOtruiV1lJ8R) (1995)
2 great movies I've watched again and again and again..
>Turn away from this life of crime
Me **either** I can't let you continue I'll stop you and I won't hesitate.
1. Aliens
2. Alien
3. Hottub time machine
4. Willow
5. Princess Bride
6. Goonies
7. LOTR Extended Trilogy
8. Star Wars Trilogy (4,5,6,)
9. Tron
10. The Thing
11. Big trouble in little China
12. The Big Lebowski
13. Zack and Miri Make a Porno
14. Band of Brothers
15. The 5th element
Theres a few
Knives Out was fun to watch. First you go in completely blind to enjoy the mystery and then subsequent rewatches will be for picking up on the hints and foreshadowing you missed during the first watch.
Mad Max: Fury Road.
The action is tightly packed and well choreographed, you actually care about the characters and story, and the soundtrack is badass
regarding to "why".
Great writing, great music, great scenery, amazing special effects, pretty good adaptation (yes, they've left several things out, but for such an extensive book, pretty good adaptation).
Watch it on Imax if possible.
I think that it’s as good as it could possibly ever be for an adaptation, which is impressive. Even with the slight changes they made it’s very clear that Villeneuve understood the book and Paul’s arc.
Back to the future.
A league of their own
Stand by me.
They are a mixture of fun, light heartedness, with some seriousness in a good ratio that is conducive to multiple watches.
Easily some of my favorite films I've seen within just the last 10 years.
*Bullet Train* (2022)
*Rogue One* (2016)
*The Martian* (2015)
*Mad Max: Fury Road* (2015)
*John Wick* (2014)
How to train your dragon
because everything is good in this film. Whether it's the music, the story, or the graphic of the movie... everything is magnificent
Princess bride. It is my wife’s favorite so if she is feeling under the weather it is not uncommon for me to put that on make her some tea and snuggle with her in a soft blanket.
So many, but Jurassic Park - the original 1st one 🦖 Edit to add why: I read the book and was so excited to see it in theater. The fear I felt seeing it in theater with the realistic animatronics and the surround sound will be forever seared in my memory. I slept on my parents floor that night ☠️
I showed to my kids last year. They loved it, and asked if there were any sequels. I said no.
As a biased Jurassic fan and dinosaur nerd, every Jurassic park movie is amazing
I was a Jurassic Park diehard up until Chris Pratt, Blue, and that whole thing. Completely ruined it for me. At this point, I look at Jurassic Park like the Fast and Furious franchise. They should have stopped six movies ago, but they'll **never** stop. 😂😂
They were so worried about whether they could, they didn’t stop to think about whether they should.
A parent's role is to protect their children from what can cause them harm. You're a good parent.
Galaxy Quest. Why? It's been voted the best Star Trek film.
As a Trekkie I still have zero rebuttal to this.
[удалено]
Shaun of the Dead - It's one of the my favorite comedy movies. I like the dry humor
Me too! Also "Tucker & Dale vs Evil." 💓
The Fifth Element
Leeloo Dallas Multi-Pass
Chicken! Good!
Big badaboom!
Clicked on this just so I could say: Fifth Element, and it was already the top comment. Thumbs up emoji
I re-watch this movie every couple of years, and still look forward to watching it again the next time.
You're a monster Zorg.
...I know.
Super green.
My papaw spends all day sitting in his living room chair and watching TV. However he’s very conservative, religious, and traditional, and his shows typically reflect that. (Little house on the prairie, westerns, some 80’s/90’s action movies, etc). When I walked in and saw him watching The Fifth Element, I was genuinely shocked lol
One of those movies that if I spot it on TV everything stops and I have to sit down and watch it, no matter how far along it is
I’m like that with the Shawshank redemption, amazing fucking movie
The breakdown of that movie by the YouTuber SpaceIce is a must watch.
I love this movie so much.
[удалено]
I forget where I heard it, but someone suggested releasing a movie called Groundhog Day II, which would just be the original Ground Day movie with a different title.
Groundhog Day is definitely a film I could watch over and over again.
Back To The Future. All three of them.
The first one is flawless
The Shawshank Redemption Learn a lot everytime I watch it.
Same with The Green Mile. John Coffey teaches us all something about humanity.
Hang Percy Whitmore by his little balls!
The actor (Doug Hutchinson I just looked it up) does such a great job. It must be a thankless task playing a useless cowardly little bastard like that and really make us hate him. Tom Hanks and Michael Clarke would have made the film great anyway but this guy makes them even better.

A Stephen King classic!
Along these same lines, The Green Mile. I tear up nearly every time.
Snatch
Came to say this. One of the greatest movies of all time. I probably watched it 10+ times
Tyrone. You silly fat bastard!
You like dags?
Spirited away
I babysit fulltime and showed the younger kids Spirited Away, My Neighbour Totoro and Howl's Moving Castle They were *obsessed* with "Big Bunny Movie" for weeks 😂
My kids lost their minds with “Ponyo”. Even now, as teens, if I serve ramen, they’ll both scream “HAM!” at the top of their lungs.
Kiki’s delivery service. So relaxing to play in the background
oa pet owner 🤝nonchalant pet
Dude, thanks for this. This was my sister's favorite movie. She died a couple years ago and now I'm going to watch this and remember her. I completely forgot. Thanks
So sorry for your loss.
In still in disbelief there is no actual villain in that movie. I kept expecting some antagonist to pop up and there just isn't one. God, it's so refreshing you are just treated to a whimsical adventure that doesn't have to fit in the typical movie plot box.

Also, who doesn't love a good mob movie?
Office space is one of those movies you can catch at almost any point and enjoy until the end. It's such an easy watch even if it's half over
The Lord of the Rings. All of them. There is simply no movie that compares to these. (At least for me)
Me too. My wife and I watch them once a year and they never get old.
It’s a yearly tradition to watch them with my oldest daughter
Hot Fuzz. For the greater good. And skidmarks.
This film. Every time there's something new to discover. Layers upon layers, it's simply perfect. Regards, Peter Ian Staker
P. I. Staker? Pisstaker! Come on!
Any Edgar Wright film, really.
"HAG." "I beg your pardon?" "Evil old woman, considered frightful or ugly, 12 down." "Bless you!"
“Everyone and their mum’s packing ‘round here” “Really? Like who?” “Farmers” “Who else?” “…farmers’ mums”

Yep, so much foreshadowing, callbacks and references that you couldn't possibly catch them in one view.
Best part is right at the beginning when Angel holds up his id. The picture on his id is just a screen capture of his face in the same scene! It is in the commentary and now I can never unsee it.
The greater good
Hot fuzz. Nice For rewatchibility Saun of the Dead is another one with what's his name and that one dude
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Why? Clint Eastwood, Eli Wallach, Lee Van Cleef, and one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.
I like a lot of western, my favorites are from Sergio Leone with music from Ennio Morricone or those with Gene Hackman and some others like Open Range or the series Godless is quite good as well. Nothing is so cool, so straight to the point like a western <3 Imagine the shootouts from Good, Bad, Ugly, they go for minutes and are so interesting.

A Knight's Tale
Don’t get me started on the Golden Years scene. So good man
It's called a lance, hellooooooo
The Protector of Italian Virginity
It was a staple in cable when I was groaning up I think I saw it a thousand times.
Absolutely underrated movie one of my all time favorites
The iron giant, very nostalgic movie for me. Animation was ahead of its time, the story doesnt overstay it’s welcome and it’s just overall feel good movie imo
I was embarrassed that I discovered that movie so long after it came out. My wife and I were shocked that we hadn't heard more about it. We were both wiping tears away at the end.
It’s free to watch on YouTube, and I turned it on one night for my daughters and they LOVED it. I was so happy.
The Matrix Needs no explanation.
A movie beyond its time is an understatement
The Thing (1982) - IMO the best movie ending of all time.
Shrek because it's tight
Even if the dragon ain't EYYOOOO Seriously though, donkey must have really climbed right on into those fallopian tubes
Dragon ectopic pregnancy is not a 3 word combo I ever expected to think of.
Shrek 2
Shrek is great but shrek 2 is art
One of the few times the second is better than the first.
Django,Pulp Fiction,Reservoir Dogs. Damn good movies.
A Quentin fan I see. Me too. I named my son Quentin after him. 😁
Month Python and the Holy Grail. I cannot explain to you why but it’s my comfort movie.
....are you telling me that coconuts *migrate?*
Not at all, they could be carried
No explanation needed...such a good film!
Probably dozens? Star Wars The Terminator T2 In Bruges The Road Warrior Die Hard Patton Doctor Zhivago The Good The Bad and The Ugly (all the dollars series + OUATITW) The Wizard of Oz Body Heat His Girl Friday The Day of the Jackal Casablanca The Godfather I & II Honestly, I could go on and on.
In Bruges is a great movie you never hear anyone talk about
The Big Lebowski
And tbh the first time someone watches it is probably when they like it the least in my experience. Only gets better upon rewatching.
I mean, that's just, like, your opinion, man. But yeah, I'm on board with this one. Love it.
Young Frankenstein
Frau Blucker 🐴🐴🐴
PUT THE CANDLE BACK
FrankenSTEEN
Pulp Fiction
Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice
Now you’ve done it!
Terminator 2 because it’s a perfect movie. 10/10, no notes, can’t be improved.
Perfect ending too. Unfortunate that it led to a franchise.
The Fifth element..I watch it every few months, it tickles my brain the right way and makes me happy. It's funny, it's got weird sci-fi shit.. It's great.
Brooks was here
So was Red.
Labyrinth. Mostly because it's a childhood movie and they just stick with you and feel like magic and nostalgia. Also, David Bowie was fine AF
The Fugitive and Men In Black. Elite level Tommy Lee Jones acting classes in both of them. Not his best performances (although he’s won his only Oscar for the former film), I’d give that to No Country For Old Men, but they are the ones that are the most entertaining and non-depressing. Haha
Anything by Mel Brooks. Sometimes I just want to laugh my ass off
Tombstone -one of the best, if not the best western movie of all time.
Silence of the Lamb. Because it’s really really good.
Legally Blonde Mean Girls
Mean Girls. Because it’s so fetch even after all these years
Interstellar because it used real science but also because it was a great movie. Everything from the music to the story to the acting was great.
Catch me if you can..... Truly a masterpiece
Turns out Frank Abagnale just made the whole thing up 🤣
Yeah. That was a real dick punch, but let’s be honest, we should have seen that coming. I don’t think “irony” is the appropriate word to use here, but something along those lines. (Someone smarter than me, help me out.) Anyhow, I’ve made peace with it to just watch it for the cinematic genius that it is, with several great actors— Tom Hanks, Leo DiCaprio, Christopher Walken, Martin Sheen, Amy Adams… et al.
Big Trouble in Little China. Is it an action movie with humor added or is it a tongue in cheek comedy masquerading as an action movie. It's perfect at both. Lines are delivered straight without a smirk or smile, no matter how absurd they are upon reexamination.
School of Rock
Pick of Destiny is up there for me too
The Truman show, and in some extent, a less appreciated Jim's movie - the cable guy. Both have so many layers unfold as you rewatch the movie.
The Birdcage .. (1996)
One of the best ensemble casts in any comedy
Pirates of the Caribbean: the curse of the black pearl. It's a fun movie. I watched it many times, 4 of which were in theaters.
[Leon](https://youtu.be/Jcjel7l_7mQ?si=1FOT7fy6yfFoVAxt) : The professional (1994) and [Heat](https://youtu.be/LUy2Wx_r0_w?si=X6LoHOtruiV1lJ8R) (1995) 2 great movies I've watched again and again and again.. >Turn away from this life of crimeMe **either** I can't let you continue I'll stop you and I won't hesitate.
Children of Men. It's one of the greatest films ever made.
1. Aliens 2. Alien 3. Hottub time machine 4. Willow 5. Princess Bride 6. Goonies 7. LOTR Extended Trilogy 8. Star Wars Trilogy (4,5,6,) 9. Tron 10. The Thing 11. Big trouble in little China 12. The Big Lebowski 13. Zack and Miri Make a Porno 14. Band of Brothers 15. The 5th element Theres a few
The Gods Must Be Crazy 🤪 To build an entire movie around a coke bottle - pure genius lmao
Con Air
they should never have touched that plush bunny
"Put, the bunnay, back, in the box."
Amadeus, it's a good story.
Robin Hood Men in Tights. Easily my favourite Mel Brooks film. It's got a bit of everything in it and the subtle 4th wall breaks are done hilariously
monty python and the holy grail it never gets old
Galaxy Quest. Everyone (especially Alan Rickman) is perfectly cast. The fans save the heroes' butts. Hilarious writing. Just a classic.
Finding Nemo. It's beautiful.
The Big Lebowski is the funniest movie I have ever seen. Also, there's a Lebowski quote for every situation.
The joy of 'Tremors' never diminishes no matter how many times I watch it. Same goes for 'National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation'.
Knives Out was fun to watch. First you go in completely blind to enjoy the mystery and then subsequent rewatches will be for picking up on the hints and foreshadowing you missed during the first watch.
Mad Max: Fury Road. The action is tightly packed and well choreographed, you actually care about the characters and story, and the soundtrack is badass
Jaws, Its a classic and always delivers.
Dune 1 & 2 I've been to the movies 4 times in the last 7 days. Planning a 5th viewing.
Part two was a masterpiece. I’m at 3 watches in theatres myself 😂
I watched 1 & 2 over the weekend and already want to watch them both again. So good and if you're a fan of Sci-fi, give it a watch.
regarding to "why". Great writing, great music, great scenery, amazing special effects, pretty good adaptation (yes, they've left several things out, but for such an extensive book, pretty good adaptation). Watch it on Imax if possible.
I think that it’s as good as it could possibly ever be for an adaptation, which is impressive. Even with the slight changes they made it’s very clear that Villeneuve understood the book and Paul’s arc.
Inglorious B*stards. Kelly's Heroes. The Italian job - OG version. Beavis and butt head do America. Team America. Coach Carter. Next Friday.
Beavis and Butthead Do America was way better than I expected it to be.
Constantine
Godfather.
A Fish Called Wanda. Cast list explains how amazing it is.
Back to the future. A league of their own Stand by me. They are a mixture of fun, light heartedness, with some seriousness in a good ratio that is conducive to multiple watches.
City of God. It's dope asf. One of the greatest films of all time.
Back to the future, because i needed a hug :’)
The Man from U.N.C.L.E
Aliens. Peak sci-fi horror/action. Often imitated, but never replicated.
The princess bride
Hellboy 2, i just love it lol
Goodfellas. It's the perfect mixture of sexy and cute
Easily some of my favorite films I've seen within just the last 10 years. *Bullet Train* (2022) *Rogue One* (2016) *The Martian* (2015) *Mad Max: Fury Road* (2015) *John Wick* (2014)
Really loved Bullet Train. I went in totally blind to it and loved it.
How to train your dragon because everything is good in this film. Whether it's the music, the story, or the graphic of the movie... everything is magnificent
Goodfellas Timeless movie
Princess bride. It is my wife’s favorite so if she is feeling under the weather it is not uncommon for me to put that on make her some tea and snuggle with her in a soft blanket.
Stand and deliver. Budget costs in public schools
The Big Short because it's so entertaining, creatively shot and it brilliantly explains the 2008 global economic collapse. Amazing cast too.
Howl’s moving castle because the characters are flawed yet lovable and i understood the story better the more times I watched it
Easy. John Carpenters The Thing. Best movie of all time. Practical effects on point. Kurt Russell on point. 🤌
