    Blazing Saddles - Probably too young when I watched if first and the ending annoyed me no end but get frequent reruns now and love it.

    Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon - Liked the slowness of it, the soundtrack , scenery, and as a fan of martial art, it ticks alot of boxes.

    Back to the Future - the perfect 80s movie for me, action , comedy, cool car, actors playing the perfect parts and the music to match. First watched on the big screen in the Savoy for a birthday party and then McDonalds when they were rare. A movie i can still watch with my kids over and over.

    I will never change channel if below are on (i think more to do with the good memories around the time i watched them)

    Hidalgo

    Dodgeball

    The Transporter

    This thread has been a good reminder of some movies i should watch again, thanks!

    Robocop

    Braveheart, despite some historical inaccuracies. The Scots are portrayed almost like the Picts, with painted faces.

    Hot Fuzz, Bourne Trilogy, Oblivion, Tron Legacy, Inglorious Basterds, Down Periscope, Old Boy (2003 Korean version)

    I am sure there are more that I have missed.

    You've just unlocked a great childhood memory - my 9th or 10th birthday… Gang of us off to the cinema… then back to H.I. which I always thought was Hi Hamburger… but I think it was "Hamburger Inn", at the Crescent Shopping Centre in Limerick. Late 80's.

    And the movie…

    The excellent InnerSpace

    One I'm deffo going to dig out the weekend.

    Films which I would watch again - and have, although I don't say over and over - are "To Kill a Mocking-Bird" (it follows the book fairly faithfully, too, apart from the section where they are visiting relations and Scout gets into a scrap with her cousin after he speaks disparagingly of her father); The "Lord of the Rings" trilogy (I bought the entire set + "The Hobbit" in a discount store for virtually peanuts, and I couldn't believe how good it was); and "Miracle on 34th Street" (the 1947 version, not the insipid modern version). I also liked "Soylent Green" (recycling the human race certainly gives food for thought!)

    I am sure William Wallace having a secret affair with the Princess of Wales was highly accurate. 🤣



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 2,908 ✭✭✭nachouser


    Alien, Hell or High Water, Margin Call, The Wolf Of Wall Street, Creed, The Great Escape (watched every Christmas.)
