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 The Ring and The Lord of the Rings movies over and over and never get tired of them. Also Leon and Blade Runner (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.

Office Space.
Election.
Clerks (Either the film or the animated series, which I bought on a blind buy and found it VERY funny).
As Good As It Gets.
Falling Down.
Galaxy Quest.
Say Anything.
The Fisher King.
ANY Albert Brooks film.
Any film from the Farrelly brothers, with or without the commentary. (I've never seen guys who have more fun making movies, and it shows.)

Some that come to mind for me are:

Aliens
Enemy of the State
any Jackie Chan movie
most Lau Ching Wan movies

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

8 Mile, even though I don't love the movie, is one of the most watchable movies for me.
