The Blues Brothers (once watched it six times in two days)
The Princess Bride (can quote nearly the entire movie)
LOTR movies (der..)
Donnie Darko (twice the first night I saw it)
Pirates of the Carribean (at least once a month)
Moulin Rouge (once watched it three times in one day)
Milo and Otis
Love, Actually
Shrek
Spirited Away
Princess Mononoke
Mulan
Emperor's New Groove (so many inside jokes with these Disney movies)
Eddie Izzard's Circle and Dressed to Kill...not really movies, but they're on DVD! (Do you have any bananas? Cake or death?)

And...I think once Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind comes out I'll be watching it constantly. I love that movie.

I must not forget "Chicken Run". I don't own it, but I want to get it. Badly.

Yeppers. Our school just did Arsenic and Old Lace. Absolutley marvelous.

My dad had me watch the Bell's of St. Mary's. I really liked it.

About to read Pygmalion (what My Fair Lady's based on)

Great Jane Austen movies. Which Emma?
I would add Pride and Prejudice.


Arien the Maia. You mentioned "Rebecca." Would this be based off of the novel by Daphne du something?

Two movies to rewatch , with a connecting link:
The Importance of Being Ernest, and
Educating Rita.

What line from Ernest is quoted in Educating Rita?

Waterworld. I don't think anyone in the world has seen that movie as much as I have. And I can't explain why.

Not sure I should be admitting this, but we've got this sort of Xmas Eve ritual: once the kids are asleep we break out lots of wine, watch our video of "It's a Wonderful Life", wipe the alcohol-fuelled tears away when it's finished, sneak the presents into the kids' rooms and go to bed at about 1 am dreaming happy dreams.

Hey, you're not alone. WE have that movie too along with Miracle on 34th Street, The Santa Clause, and Santa Clause 2, Mickeys Snowed in Christmas, Red Skeltons Christmas Specials, Jingle All The Way and one or two more. We love watching them each holiday season.

You know, we just watched The Maltese Falcon the other night.

I don't think I've ever seen the movie of Brigadoon, only the stage show. I love it.

Wow, this is my first post in a long time.
