Repetitive Movie

[Tabascocat]

There are several, but I will actually set aside things if I catch Stepbrothers or Billy Madison on. Yes I am aware I have a really low bar on what I find entertaining. ;-)

I bet mine is lower, heh.

I like the old westerns:
Lonesome Dove
Quigley Down Under
Open Range
Unforgiven
Outlaw Josey Wales
Maverick series on the western channel
All of the Star Trek movies
All of the Alien movies
Band of Brothers
The Santa Clause
Groundhog Day
These are all I can think of ,but they keep me busy.

Groundhog Day.

this means two things!

 

[RonSpringsdaman20]

Something About Mary (like OP)
40 year old Virgin
Superbad
Half Baked
StepBrothers
Munich

Mostly comedies, because if I'm channel surfing, it usually means I'm burning time, and comedies pass the time fast...

Tyler Perry's Diary of a Mad Black Woman (2005)

Can we get an explanation please!

Can we get an explanation please!

Kimberly Elise is one of the most underrated actresses in Hollywood in my opinion. Although it is interwoven with comedy, Elise shows the depths of anger someone could allow themselves to fall after suffering that type of betrayal. I love the white-hot rage she expresses in every scene as she works through the ending of her previous life until she finally reaches (and accepts) the beginning of her new life. And all the usual Tyler Perry stuff is funny as heck also.

[MichaelWinicki]

Definitely one I overlooked.

Me too.

But it is a classic.

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

Most of the Die Hard movies.
Except that last one. Piece of drek!

 

[Fletch]

I know that we have a thread on movies, but I was wondering what that one movie is that yall can watch whenever it comes on. For instance, you are channel surfing and it is there and you immediately start watching whatever point the show is in.

For me, it is "Something About Mary". Have seen it too many times but I can never pass it up

Battleship. Gladiator. Iron Man. Liar Liar. Transformers. Meet the Parents. Star Wars. Rocky movies. Click. Man on Fire. Training Day. Book of Eli. Zero Dark Thirty. Real Steal.

Such a great movie with so many great moments. The SFX for it's time were awesome, I think I'm going to have to watch it this weekend. I always wanted a hat like Mac's!

The other interesting thing about the movie is that there are enough "shallow" plot holes that it leaves you wondering what really happened...

-Like when the dog goes into one of the bedrooms and you only see a shadow on the wall of a person in you aren't sure which character it is that ultimately becomes absorbed
-Or what really happened to cause Fuch's to torch himself.

Lot's of interesting twists & turns.

I had to had it to the folks that did the "prequel" a few years ago and they did a terrific job making sure the details of the Norwegian camp matched what was seen in Carpenter film.
