Top DVDs to watch over and over?
 
I was wondering if anyone has suggestions for great movies on DVD that can be watched over and over again?

I can watch <i>The Ring</i> and <i>The Lord of the Rings</i> movies over and over and never get tired of them. Also <i>Leon</i> and <i>Blade Runner</i> (International cut on VHS).

Anybody else like this? If so, what are you watching over and over?

Lots of times I'll toss in Mallrats or Clerks: The Animated Series.

I usually like to put something on, low volume, before I head to bed, so I'll always looking for something in my collection that I can listen to while crashing.

those are the only ones that come to mind, of course these days I'm still trying to play catch up most of the time so I take little opportunity to rewatch things ;)

good choice.
seriously, I rewatch tv shows on dvd WAY MORE often than I do films. especially Britcoms. When I want to put something on for background or before going to bed, I almost always head for the tv show shelf.

Deckard-10 08-30-03 08:23 AM

The Babylon 5 series. &nbsp I've seen all five seasons multiple times and I still love it. &nbsp The only other movie that I can watch on a daily basis, and never get sick of, is Alien.

danol 08-30-03 10:56 AM

Hackers, The Nineth Gate:Book of Shadows, and First Knight

These are two different movies. You listed it as one film in the Movies forum too. Not sure what you are calling what actually...

Were these two sold in a 2 pack or something at one point?

The Ninth Gate is the Roman Polanski film starring Johnny Depp.

Book of Shadows is the name of the sequel to the Blair Witch Project.
