There are so many. Where do I begin?

I would say I am most addicted to:

1. Shawshank Redemption
2. Ice Age
3. The Wedding Singer
4. Donnie Darko (EVERYONE should see this movie)
5. The Green Mile

Oh, there's a whole MESS of 'em! Starting with another vote for Shrek -- Shrek 2 will be out soon -- can't wait.

Then, in no particular order:
Driving Miss Daisy
Starman
Rainman
On Golden Pond
Mrs Doubtfire
Ghost
Forrest Gump
E.T.
Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
Being There
Sixth Sense
Dead Poet's Society
Finding Forrester
To Sir with Love
Who's That Girl?
and pretty much any Julia Roberts movie...

and that's just what I can see on the shelf from here


'course there are a few that haven't made it to the shelf yet:
Victor Victoria
Tootsie
My Favourite Year
Dave

...well, that's what comes to mind, anyway.

I don't watch movies over and over, but I know I would likely pick the one of the Alien movies if I did. That series gets better with age. I also love Gladiator.

Mr Vampire (Cantonese movie which mixes horror and comedy flawlessly.)
Hidden Dragon, Crouching Tiger
Jackie Chan movies (I like his older work better.)
Under One Roof - Not a movie but it's hilariously entertaining.
Toy Story 1 and 2
Monsters Inc
Finding Nemo
A Bug's Life Did I mention that I LOVE Pixar?
I'm looking forward to The Incredibles.
Ice Age
Antz
Shrek and I may as well add Shrek 2
Lord of The Rings even though I was disappointed with the third movie installment.
The Gods Must Be Crazy (Just the first one)
To Kill a Mocking Bird
Shawshank Redemption
Indiana Jones trilogy - Very curious with the fourth one that is going to be added to this.
Back to the Future trilogy
ET
Star Wars (Episodes 4,5 and 6 The newer ones just aren't the same.)

That's it for now. I gave myself a time limit and promised to stop there.

I don't really like watching movies more than once but I watched White Oleander twice in a row it was so good. I will watch Steel Magnolias when I see it on, and Dirty Dancing is one of my faves. I don't know why, but I'm always interested in watching Shawshank Redemption when I see it on even though it's on a LOT and it's kind of boring! I live Finding Nemo, Shrek, and Lilo & Stitch.

Oh, and I like to torture my roommate with Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, Grease (I, NOT II) and Mary Poppins.

I love Chinese movies - I could have named at least ten more if I hadn't have been too lazy to take a look through my videos. Bruce Lee was big when I was a kid, and from there I got interested in Hong Kong films. It's sad that they've lost two big stars in just under a year - Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui.
