[#4306097]

Pigface's thread got me thinking, what movies have I seen the most times(?) I'm not a serial DVD watcher and I don't think I've seen hardly any movies twice at the cinema.
What's your top 3 - you know the ones that you can't help when they come around on late night TV:
Blade runner
Army of Darkness
Matter of life and death
?

I would guess at the following, but I watch a LOT of films even if I've seen them many times. These are in no way my favourites.

Top Gun
Terminator 2
Jaws

actually scratch Jaws and replace with Die Hard - I've seen that a million times.

Then again, back in my school days I had a penchance for:

Either way, pretty highbrow stuff!

The "can't help but watch" list is entirely different to my favourite list which is different to the "best films ever made" list.

Can't help but watch:

Shaun of the Dead
Hot Fuzz
Point Break

I'll save the others for the "correct" thread. Otherwise the thread police will tell me off again.

Same here. I'm pretty sure I can still recite the entire script of BTTF from memory, I watched it so many times as a kid.
