Favorite flick to watch when sick
Yo peeps-
I was wondering what flicks everyone likes to watch when they are sick. My personal faves are The Shawshank Redemption and The Usual Suspects. The Godfather and Field of Dreams are good ones, too.
Peace

Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Seeing Cameron on his sickbed is always a pick-me-up.
Or, if you're feeling sick but industrious, listed to the John Hughes commentary. Not a bad one, and somewhat interesting to listen to.

I used to watch this on VHS when I was younger and would stay home sick from school. I always wanted to do the stuff that crazy Bueller did.

I like "comfort films" when I'm sick - Top Gun, E.T., any John Hughes film, Star Wars (can't wait for the OT!), Bill & Ted, The Limey, Heathers, etc.

I pop in some anime or old sci-fi movies. I also tend to find my TV series DVDs and do a marathon of sorts.

The transfer for that is truly embarrasing. That movie deserves much better.What do I watch when I am sick? Most likely The Goonies.

I'm still missing some favourite "sick flicks" from years gone by, because they haven't been released in a decent DVD version yet.
When I can get a nice anamorphic SE of "Real Men," "Real Genius," and "Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins" I'll be a happy man.
