Last night it was Blazing Saddles (The unfortunately EDITED version). Used to own the DVD but it got borrowed and not returned.

15 is my limit on Schnitzengrüben!

[DromJohn]

The Big Lebowski
Once Upon a Time in the West


Starman's and Raiders of the Lost Ark's chick was Karen Allen.

 

[rdann87]

Lebowski! Such a classic.

I heard about some "lebowski fest" that they hold once a year. Sounds like a blast, and really... how could it not be?

Edit: Gotta love John Goodman's character in that flick too.

The sheer muscle mass..

The Ultimate Killing machine

 

[HessenHelles]

Ah yea, The Big Lebowski. That's a good one.

 

[ArkansasRazorbacks]

#1 favorite movie of all time: Snatch. I've seen it several dozen times and could literally watch it two times in a row.


Any good modern zombie movie a close second.

 

[TxBrew]

Master and Commander, I don't know why. I'm not especially fond of nautical movies or the time period.

 

[velorider11]

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - incredible musical score and best ever showdown.
The Last of the Mohicans - the scenery and DD Lewis and Madeleine Stowe great together.
Millers Crossing - tremendous cast and such great dialogue

 

[Cider123]

Blazing saddles
Young Frankenstein
Caddyshack
The Blues Brothers
The Hunt for Red October
Napoleon Dynamite
12 Angry Men
She Wore a Yellow Ribbon

I'll think of more...

 

[morticus]

Smokey and the Bandit

 

[phenry]

Joe Dirt.

 

[Tex]

Shawshank
Rounders
The Rainmaker
Independence Day

 

[passedpawn]

Tree of Life
Melancholia

These were 2 of my favorite movies last year. Eye candy for me. Sound great, Too.

 

[MyNameIsPaul]

ROAD HOUSE!

You wanna fight, old man?!

 

[Einberger1]

Tremors...not a great movie, but I will watch it to the end every time. Something about Reba with heavy artillery...

Spaceballs
History of the World Part 1
Strange Brew

 

[bad67z]

Shawshank Redemption
Forrest Gump

[Packman715]

Starship troopers for some stupid reason gets me and T1 and T2

Anything by John Hughes

 

[Revvy]

A lot of them do, most of my favorite ones can just pull me in no matter where in the movie I discover it, but the weirdest one has to be the Kennau Reeves, Gene Hackman movie about a cobbled together pro-football team during an NFL strike,

It's gotta be one of the silliest movies out there, the sports radio station I listen too just absolutely loathes it, and won't even call it a sports movie. But I just get sucked into the whole buddy movie concept of all the goofball characters they recruited, like the Sumo wrestler, the chainsmoking (on the field even) soccer player as kicker, the "ganstas" and the deaf player, and how they all come together to be a winning team.

And the stripper cheerleaders don't hurt either.



And the dance number.



I can turn it on anywhere, and end up totally drawn into it. Crap, I think I need to watch it now...

based on the '87 Redskins, so +1000 for Revvy!

Tony Robinson -- the QB that relieved Ed Rubbert and beat Dallas in the 3rd game of the strike, was on work release from prison at the time and was the inspiration for the ex-con DB in The Replacements.
