Re: Movies, movies, movies ...
Nice. Some are not classics in the memorable sense, but are just damn good movies that are fun to watch over and over. . .:cheers
i.e., what do we do with Ferris Bueller? It will never win any awards, but I have stopped down to see it at least ten times in my life. . .

Sure, Cruise has been in a lot of movies i enjoy. I don't know if i enjoy them because of him specifically, but i guess i've gravitated towards the type of movie he's usually in.

Ethan Hawke :+excited-
That was a really great movie - the guy who did the Midsummer Night's Dream was particularly good.

Re: Movies, movies, movies ...
Thanks, AA. And great pick with Good Will Hunting - one of my all-times faves as well. Robin Williams was great in it, but I generally enjoy his movies. Which reminds me of Good Morning, Vietnam. Great performance, great movie.

Re: Movies, movies, movies ...
Tough question because there are so many great movies seen multiple times and your question is not restricted to a specific genre. With a relatively young audience in mind, I’ll try to list a few made in the past 30 years, while by no means implies they’re considered personal all-time top films but we’ll call them “recent” favorites with a few double-feature recommendations…no particular order with a lean towards comedy and good music. 12io4j2w90

Re: Movies, movies, movies ...
The only David Lynch movie the Munchkin Man did not like was Dune (1984).
Otherwise, the Munchkin Man enjoyed most of the other David Lynch movies and their surrealistic style.
Wild At Heart (1990) made the Munchkin Man's top 25 list.
The Munchkin Man also loved Blue Velvet (1986), which would have made the second half of the Munchkin Man's top 50 list.
The Munchkin Man also enjoyed Elephant Man (1980) and Eraserhead (1977).
One director whose style the Munchkin Man has never liked is Tim Burton, who ruined the remake of The Planet Of The Apes.

Shawshank Redemption - one of my all-time favorites
Planet of the Apes - the Charleton Heston movies
Saving Private Ryan
Schindler's List
Officer and A Gentleman
Ben Hur
The Sting
The Natural
Raiders of the Lost Ark
There's Something About Mary - funny, funny, funny
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
A Shot in the Dark - original Pink Panther with Peter Sellers
New Bond - Casino Royale
Batman Begins
