hey the guinness book of records says that the person who watched the same film the most times was a welsh lady who seen tsom 300 times!(seriously) mabye you should give them a call

300 times seems a bit low - unless it was it 300 times in a row supervised by Guninness people?

Didnt realise there was an original Bedazzled, seen the the remake with Catherin Zeta Jones (I think) and it was rubbish!

The remake was with Liz Hurley. It was terrrible. The original was made in 1967 and is very hard to come by. They've never re-released it :mad:

I've have a very old copy on video (no, you can't borrow ) Classic. Raquel Welch as Lust...yummm

Completely agree. Can't understand how i forgot to add it to my own list earlier.

Have seen in at least 50 times, though only once on the big screen.

Have you spotted the manequins?

The soundtrack to Lost In Translation owes more to Kevin Shields (previously of My Bloody Valentine) than to Air.

And to stay on topic...

Do other people agree with this? I haven't seen either film in quite a while so I couldn't possibly comment.

But I will say that it's a depressing thought that someone like Ridley Scott would rip-off someone like Mel Gibson*

Couldn't disagree more. Overrated boring pile of Mel-Gibson-ego-massaging tosh.

My re-watchers: Fight Club, Royal Tenenbaums, Cannibal The Musical, The Big Lebowski. I don't know why, but those films just entertain me no matter what, especially the commentary on the Cannibal The Musical DVD.

I watch 24 Party People quite alot and sometimes 12 Monkeys.

It's a great film, but lets give it oh more than two years before we strap on the word classic beside it shall we?

Braveheart is an overlong self indulgent piece of crap with this huge sagging middle (the bit with the horse in the guys bedroom)

Probably Dumb and Dumber for me.. lost count how many times i've seen it.

Does anyone remember the post-apocalyptic movie with Christopher Lambert about 'the Game'? Played with a dog's skull?

Twas Rutger Haur in The Blood of Heroes, though I remember it being called 'salute of the jugger' when I rented. Man that takes me back...

Thank you so much, been trying to track it down for years. Doesn't help that i was convinced it was Christopher Lambert in it. Used to actually play that game with my mates when we were 14.

It was Salute of the Jugger to us as well. Used a deflated rugby ball instead of dog skull. I was one of the people who swung the chain around their heads. We used a rope with a shoe tied to the end.


Halycon days...

Betty Blue especially the opening scene...Ohhhhhhhh Yessssssss!

Brerrabbit

PaulDeehan: Dog Soldiers. Me and the mate even have a drinking game for it.

What's the drinking game? class film.

I watched the matrix about 15 times but havent touched it since the pants sequels came out for some reason.

The last of the mohicans
Aliens (of course )
Airplane
The blues brothers
predator
leon
The good the bad and the ugly
x men 1
back to the future 1,2 and 3
star wars 4-6
The Indiana Jones films
Grosse point blank
Dawn of the dead (either version, both are excellent)
I've watched Shaun of the dead too many times to be healthy.
ditto pulp fiction.
The princess Bride "my name is..."
I went a bit DVD crazy there for the last couple of months and more or less doubled my collection so there amy be others lurking about

Shabadu

Don't mean to be snotty, but as a fellow fan could all the other 'Aliens' fans please refer to them as Alien, Aliens, Alien 3 and Alien ressurection?

Or are all of you talking about the 2nd movie?

I don't think we all love them and watch them all equally. Parts (most?) of ressurection are pants.

The Lion King.
The Emperor's New Groove.

The Goonies

Raoul Duke

Tend not to watch too many films over and over as I prefer to hunt down a movie that I haven't seen before but sometimes I get tired of that and fall back on a few "comfort" films. The film I've seen the most of, by far, is Groundhog Day. I also have a compusion to watch Memoirs of an Invisible Man anytime it's on tv and any other Chevy Chase flick from the 80's, especially Fletch.

I was refering to the second one; aliens as I'd say most folks are, though the first was a classic too. Imo the third and "ressurection" were utter pants

I wasn't!

Alien is a far better movie than any of the sequels. Not only the best sci-fi movie but also the best horror movie of all time. Pure genius.

The sequels are good (especially Aliens) I enjoy watching them every now and again but nothing beats the original.

soma

Ferris Beulers D.O., Aliens, Back to the future 1/2/3, Commando (for the truly outstanding cheese!), Predator, Grosse Point Blank.

Brerrabbit

sorry I should have been clearer; when I said most folks were refering to the second movie, I meant those that had said "aliens" were refering to the second movie rather than "Alien". I didn't mean that those that said "alien" meant "aliens". JR. Shabadu thought that when someone said "aliens" they meant the whole sequence of films. Confusion all over the shop! in any case sorry for being pedantic but I had to clarify that I wasn't speaking for anyone but myself. (though I prefer the second ) both were classics.
