I just remembered another christmas movie that I have to watch every year: Scrooged with Bill Murray because Bill Murray is wonderful. Quote:
As for Monty Python and the Holy Grail and A Fish Called Wanda, they have a special significance for me, because when my now step-dad was courting my mother, the first thing he got me was Grail and the first thing he got my mother was Wanda. Sniff. Tear. Anyways, I could watch anything by Christopher Guest CONSTANTLY!!! We watched Waiting for Guffman last night and I was thrilled.

Do you mean over and over again in a row and not get sick of them? Or do you mean that you like the movie so much you watch it repeatedly?
If the second is true: I like fun movies; Pirates of the Caribbean Indiana Jones (esp. The Last Crusade) Lot's more. Can't think right now. I feel like my brain is stuffed. What is with me?

Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea. They are just so wonderful! I can watch them even more than movies like Pride & Prejudice and Sense & Sensibility (but those might also qualify for this list). Ah yes, and the Horatio Hornblower miniseries.

I used to love watching my favorite movies over and over again. That's why I now cannot stand watching LotR. I can't stand the thought of it anyway. I mostly only like watching funny movies over and over again.

There are quite a few movies that have withstood the test of time and multiple watchings with me. It depends on my genre mood of course, I can toss any one of these into the DVD player.
Comedy: Monty Python & the Holy Grail Yellowbeard Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure Strange Brew A Knight's Tale War: Cross of Iron Stalingrad (1993 German release) Big Red One (Directors cut) The Longest Day Kokoda Patton Tora Tora Tora Band of Brothers Tour of Duty (TV series) Wartime Black Comedy: Kelly's Heroes Catch-22 M.A.S.H. Western: Last Train from Gun Hill The Searchers Dead Man (1997 Jim Jarmusch film starring Johnny Depp) The Good, The Bad, & the Ugly High Plains Drifter Lonesome Dove - The Outlaw Years (2nd season of TV series) Some of my Classics: The Big Sleep Maltese Falcon Casablanca (just about any Humphrey Bogart film really) Farewell My Lovely (starring Robert Mitchum) 55 Days in Peking Northside 777 Emperor of the North Pole Chinatown The Bourne Trilogy ...the list could go on...
