Re: Favorite comfort movie?
I've had Big Jake on the DVR for years. I've probably watched it 2-3 times a year, but rarely all the way through. Typically I'll start watching on a lazy afternoon and drift off for a bit then wake up before the big show down.

To mention one that has been yet been named;
I have no idea why, either. It just puts me in a pretty good mood. I even have the soundtrack on my iPod.

When I'm looking for comfort, I like to channel surf. I can't count how many times I've watched parts of Lethal Weapon, The Shawshank Redemption, etc.

Army of Darkness was my go to film for damn near a decade. Don't watch it nearly as often as I used to but it is a movie I will probably never get tired of.

North by Northwest. If I'm flipping channels and it's on, I'll always stop and watch it. If the house is too quiet and I need something to make noise, it gets chosen quite often.

There are so many movies I hold to this category, but the one I will mention for now is UHF.

Something with kung fu in it, preferably with "Shaolin" in the title.
