Movies you've seen WAY too many times

Recommended Posts

- Major League - Not positive if it's because it's really that great of a movie or if it's because I'm from Cleveland and the humor hits home . . . hell, pick a team from Cleveland and Hollywood can produce a movie about how wretched it is.

 

- Office Space - A fantastic movie and another one that hits home seeing as how I have an office job. The cake scene w/ Milton and the overweight middle-aged ladies was surreal.

-Clerks and Office Space: could've been documentaries about my own life at different jobs.

 

-Night of the Living Dead and Alien: the two most perfect horror movies ever made.

 

-Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind: Charlie Kaufman has repeatedly stolen my brain in every single movie he's written. I constantly found myself just nodding along with this movie, because it was all just so true, so right.

 

-Oh Brother Where Art Thou: my favorite musical. Also my favorite Coen brothers movie. Their powers combined makes for one of my favorite movies, period.

 

-Apocalypse Now: simply fucking amazing.

 

-Transformers: The Movie: like I even need to explain this one.

 

-Every MST3K episode I have on tape: best tv show in the history of the medium. Especial favorites: Prince of Space, The Final Sacrifice, Mitchell, and of course Manos: The Hands of Fate.

 

-Any version of Hamlet: the best work of art ever created in the English language in my opinion. I own eight different Hamlet movies, and there's still at least three or four versions I've yet to acquire.

 

-Aliens: does it explain a lot about me that this was my favorite movie when I was a little kid?

Office Space

 

Hogwash. You can NEVER see "Office Space" too many times. That movie owns.

 

I've never even seen it once. I tried watching it because I'd heard how good it is ... didn't impress me, and I didn't make it long into the movie. And I've seen bits & pieces on TV since, and found it to be pretty 'meh'.

 

Maybe a case for "the hype was so much it couldn't help but disappoint" but ... you all can have your Office Space.

 

Don't pass judgment until you've seen it all the way through.

I've seen both Kill Bill movies 10 times each in the last 2 weeks on Starz. I had never seen part 2 before, and I had only seen part 1 a couple times.

 

I've seen Dogma 50+ times... Same with the Die Hard movies, I believe.

You can never see Black Hawk Down too many times...best war movie ever.

 

I'd like to watch it, as war fascinates me. But I'm a little worried about it being a little "Hey, distress, let's have America come save the day and a happy ending". Considering that's blatantly not what happened in Somalia, can anyone confirm or reassure me?

Revenge of the Nerds is a movie that I can watch all day, every day.

 

-Any version of Hamlet: the best work of art ever created in the English language in my opinion.  I own eight different Hamlet movies, and there's still at least three or four versions I've yet to acquire. 

If you like that, try and stay away from some theatre productions of it. I saw one last year which was absolutly horrible. The worst part of it was that they were professional actors, yet they had no clue how to do that play. Lines were taken out of the right context and as a result the product suffered.

I thought Apocalypse Now and Platoon were better films, but you feel like you're IN the combat during most of Black Hawk Down, and it's a more exciting movie to watch than the two of them, in my opinion. That's why I've seen it a billion times.

I've never seen a live version of Hamlet, but that's more to do with the lack of good Shakespearean actors in the South than my own choice. I've just never had the opprotunity to see the play staged at all.

 

Personally, I've never seen what I considered to be "the definitive Hamlet". I've seen lots of interpretations, but no single one stands out above the rest.
