There have been a lot of threads about things like "worst films you can't stop watching", "what do you mean you haven't seen..." and "I can't believe I own this movie", so I thought I'd throw out the big one.  What films can you simply watch over and over again without getting tired of them?  Mine include:

- Fight Club (even knowing how it ends, I can still watch this without being bored)
- The Incredibles (My favorite Pixar flick)
- Spider-Man (Just loved the adaption)
- The Fisher King (Terry Gilliam)
- Leap of Faith (Steve Martin)

one such movie for me is Batman Begins.

Everytime I dog sit for my Aunt and Uncle it always seems to play on cable at least once while i'm there. And I always end up watching it, even though I own the dvd. I've actually started watching it on another channel right after it ended.

True Romance never gets old.
Showgirls rarely will be declined or clicked away from as well.

Used to be "Zulu", but I have seen it so many times I have given it a rest for a couple of years.

Now they are: "Planes, Trains & Automobiles", "Dave", "Lake Placid", "Godzilla", and last but not least "13th Warrior".

I have peculiar likes and dislikes.

The theatrical Fellowship is better, the new opening kills the perfect tone of the original.

Anyway, a few that come to mind:

Aliens
Back to the Future
Badlands
Beetlejuice
The Big Lebowski
Blade Runner
The Blues Brothers
Ed Wood
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (Fisher King too, though)
Ghostbusters
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Goodfellas
Heat
The Iron Giant (Brad Bird's finest thus far)
Kaze no tani no Naushika
Léon
Lost Highway
Majo no takkyubin
Mimi wo sumaseba
Mulholland Dr.
Platoon
Pulp, Jackie Brown, etc.
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Roxanne
Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi
The Shawshank Redemption
The Shining
The Thing
Tonari no Totoro
Videodrome

Shawshank Redemption and Not Without My Daughter are two that I love to watch.
The Super with Joe Pesci in it, is also another one that I watch over and over again.

Have you watched through the credits? Last time I watched this I was half-watching the credits after it ended and one caught my eye...it was the producer or someones divorce attorney. So i watched more closely, all three movies have random 'credits' thrown in the mix. Was some funny stuff.
