My late challenge entry-- comfort movies?

[sporklemotion]

Brought to you by my Saturday on the couch...
What are some movies that you can (and do) watch over and over again?
Mine:
-- The Philadelphia Story
-- Singing in the Rain
-- Mean Girls
-- The Princess Bride (yup, I'm a cliche)

I realize that the board is usually dead on the weekends, but I was dealing w/family stuff all week and didn't get a chance to start a post.
Hope you're all having a fun and productive weekend!

Not a movie, but right now I'm watching the same Roseanne marathon that's been on We for the past few Saturdays. Same episodes, everything

My favorite "watch every time" movies are:
The Wedding Date
P.S. I Love You
SATC movie
Ever After
Office Space
any of the Rush Hour movies
In Her Shoes

We have way too many movies

Love Actually
Notting Hill

I guess I like Hugh Grant....

[woodiedog]

Something's gotta give - with Nicholson and Keaton!  I can watch this over and over!

[vtdiamond]

Good ones rikki love both of those. 

Thanks to your rec hulley Im going to watch P. S. I Love You tonight!

[wildcatprincess]

When Harry Met Sally, Enchanted, Hope Floats, Serendipity

And less girly Big Lebowski, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

ETA: Right now I'm watching Zack and Miri Make a Porno - I always watch this, Knocked Up, and 40 Year Old Virgin if I see them on TV. Apparently I like Seth Rogen.

I agree about The Philadelphia Story and The Princess Bride. I also will sit down and watch The Sting, Dirty Dancing, It Happened One Night, Bringing Up Baby, Casablanca and the Maltese Falcon over and over and over again.

I'm a huge movie buff, so I have a ton of these. But I'll try to keep the list short.

L.A. Confidential
Gosford Park
Clue
Lucky Number Slevin
Hot Fuzz
The Haunting (1963)
Harper
Batman (Michael Keaton)
The Manchurian Candidate (1962)
Red
SWAT
Aeon Flux
Jane Eyre (Orson Welles/Joan Fontaine)
The Last of the Mohicans

Those are just some of the ones that come immediately to mind. I literally own thousands of DVDs. They're my splurge item.

Without a doubt it's Steel Magnolias (the original). I tried to watch the Lifetime remake but it's so bad I've had to turn it off twice. Which is awful because I like so many of the actresses in the remake. I don't get it, but the acting is so wooden from everyone. It's a shame.

Others would include anything with Goldie Hawn in it, The Proposal, Pay It Forward, The Green Mile, Carzy Stupid Love, and Easy A.

I love this movie!  And Cary Grant in general.

I will play, even though a lot of the movies I suggest have been mentioned...

Love Actually
Mean Girls
The Proposal
The Devil wears Prada
Couples Retreat
The Family Stone (although it's at Xmas time, I love it!)
The Holiday, again Xmas time, but still good
The Notebook, if it's not already playing on cable for the 50th time
Friends with Benefits

Wow, that's a longer list than I was thinking.

[Awkward]

I have a bunch of movies that I can never get enough of. I might break out one or two of them tonight after the day I've had.

Ever After
Shrek
What a Girl Wants (if you haven't experienced the adorableness that is Oliver James, you need to)
Phantom of the Opera
Pride and Prejudice (the Matthew Macfayden version, but I like the Colin Firth one too)
Interview with the Vampire

I would agree with you on all of these!!

Does Terminator 2 count?  I could watch that movie 1 million times.  We found it on TV dubbed in Spanish a few weeks ago and I was translating the lines for my H (because I've memorized them, not because I'm fluent). 

I love Billy Madison too. 

For my H it is Ocean's 11 or any of the Bourne movies.  I've seen the end of all of them too many times because any time he finds one on TV he puts it on.  I still have no idea what the plot of the Bourne ones are.
