if you can watch just 2 movies over and over again what will it be and why? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies7 months ago

i know this has been asked by many and forgive me if i do ask again, just hard to read so much post in the past so i'd rather start my own.
anyway, i love to watch movies and there wont be a day that i am not watching one on tv. to me it is my form of relaxation and i like to know different stories, be it old or new one.
to answer my own question,,,
i can watch "13 GOING ON 30" and "NEVER BEEN KISSED" over and over again and i will still have the same effect when i first saw it, i know this is just too cheezy, but heck i love it!
there are some movies that i am not aware of so if you can only share yours it will be so great of you, maybe i havent seen it and because you said it is so good i would like to see it as well.
i know each of us have our own reason for liking such story and i want to know why and hope to learn from it.
thanks for sharing in advance.
takecare

Two movies I could watch over n over again are .....

1 - The Goonies
2 - The 13th Warrior.


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

thanks for sharing it!

myLot reputation of 84/100. mark17779 (518)   ranked 1,451 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

The Goonies was one of my favourite films when i was growing up in the 80's. Like any other little boy I wanted to go on a mission like those in the film and find pirate ships and treasures.........

The 13th warrior stars Antonio Banderas and is set a few 100 years ago. The "north" people were being plagued by flesh eaters and a proficy says 13 warriors had to go and fight. 12 viking type warriors voluntered but the 13th warrior had to be from somewhere else. that is when Antiono was chosen to go north and fight. I just really like the film, no special reasons for this one.


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

oh cool!
i love pirates and viking stuff so im sure this will be a good one to watch, thanks for sharing the reason why you like it.
i will ask my man if he knows it and maybe try to check it when we go out today.
seems to be a very interesting just the way you explain it wants me to watch it tonight.
maybe he already have it i just didnt know coz he have some old dvd's somewhere and i havent arranged them yet, so hope it's there so i dont have to look for it.
anyway, thanks again!


myLot reputation of 84/100. mark17779 (518)   ranked 1,451 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

I am very surprised that you aint seen The Goonies... its a classic... hope you can source a copy and enjoy watching it.


p.s the 13th warrior is on you tube but in about 16 parts.


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

yup, dont know and never heard bout "the goonies" so i appreciate that you give me something i didnt know.
i really hope i can watch it coz it sounds interesting.
thanks for the info regarding the 13th warrior. i dont mind watching 16 part of it in youtube, thank god we have cable, so it wont take a lifetime to download it.
thanks again!

ps
just ask my husband and he says he dont have it, havent watched the whole movie but he saw some part of it. i told him i want to watch it, haha so he suggest to check the online one on xbox movie.

I like to watch movies as well. I am a pretty big fan of comedies, suspense/trillers, and some horror movies. My favorite by far are comedies and even more specifically, Will Ferrel movies. I can watch the movie "Anchorman" over and over again without it really getting old. I seems to always remain fresh and keep me entertained. I also like "Talledega Nights" which is another Will Ferrel comedy. I don't think it is as funny as Anchorman, but I believe it is definately a close second.


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

haha, we love will ferrel! he is very entertaining and such a great actor. i love to watch his old skit in SNL, just hilarious!
we havent watch his new movie yet (semi-pro) im sure it is as funny as his previous one.
have you watched it yet?
there is one that i like as well "STRANGER THAN FICTION", it is a bit of comedy and a bit of just a story but love the way he act, the best part of it is when he reacts on the narration "LITTLE DID HE KNOW" that he is about to die, haha! that is just a classic!
i like most of his movie just seem to be natural haha, oh the talledega nights makes my tummy aches too (same as anchorman) my fave part of that one is when his kids answer back to him when they are very little, hahaha!
anyway, great choice!
thanks for posting!

1. The LOTR series(can't just name 1)
2. Step up

Just love LOTR(it probably shows with my avatar)! The movies are already classics, and will be in 25 years. As for Step up, I just think it's a nice story of a tough guy being brought back in the right direction by love.


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

haha, yes, it shows how much you like the LOTR - cant hide that fact, lol!
i've watched them all and they are really great - love the story and effects.
i think if harry potter didnt show almost the same time LOTR shows, LOTR will win more watchers than the Harry potter, just a thought from me (not base on fact)
i watched the trailer of Step Up and like the sound track. but dont know really what it is all about!
sounds like a good love story. i love "love story", i just hope it is not a sad one coz i cry easy and that is not good....
more popcorn please:)
thanks for your input.

6. myLot reputation of 94/100. daeckardt (569)   ranked 4,191 out of 7,889 in watching movies   7 months ago

I think if I were to watch 2 movies over and over it would be "The Sound of Music" and "The Wizard of Oz". Those are movies that I grew up with and would watch them every year. There was a time that I did have a tape with them and I did watch them many times a week. They just made me feel good. I don't know why.


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

interesting choice! you must like musical stuff (just an assumption) i watched part of "the sound of music" and i like it a lot coz i enjoy musical movies and beside it is such a classic like "the wizard of oz".
last christmas holiday, i was up late coz they are showing 'the wizard of oz' that's the first time i've watch it and it is really cute, i really like it a lot so even half eye shut im there watching - love toto oh he is so cute! haha
i love classic movies or tv shows they have more appeal to me. im also a cartoon person may sound retarded but it's true. the kid in me never grows up, hahaha!


myLot reputation of 94/100. daeckardt (569)   ranked 4,191 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

It's good to "never grow up"!!! When you grow up, you get old. When you keep the kid alive inside you, you will always be happy!!! Stay young!!


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

that's very true, i have learned that from watching peter pan, hahaha!
kidding aside, it is sad to see most people wanting to grow up fast and when they finally reach that age they stay there and forgot the beauty of being young.
i dont want to be like that, i love to live my life having those feelings of excitement, surprise and dream in my heart, it is such a wonderful feeling. it helps me feel good and i am very happy that my husband is the same, he is just like me most people think we are retards living like a kid (behaving and eating like one, hahaha)
but i am not complaining i found life more exciting that way and i have never been happy in my life till i realize that i want to keep that kid in me.

i feel you do the same and i congratulate you for finding the right path.

takecare and keep up the spirit of peter pan, LOL


myLot reputation of 94/100. daeckardt (569)   ranked 4,191 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

I agree with you totally!!! If you grow up and forget how to be a kid, life will be miserable!!! Life is too short to be miserable. Have a great week!!!


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

yup!
i wish i can spread such belief specially to the oldies, i havent found a place where i can volunteer here yet coz i am really busy helping my hubby and preparing some other stuff,
busy busy busy!
good luck on your doctoral!

8. myLot reputation of 89/100. overhere (326)   ranked 2,910 out of 7,889 in watching movies   7 months ago

Mine would probably be "Pretty Woman" the ultimate feel good movie which I've lost count of the times I've seen it. The second choice would be another all time weepy "Rebecca" a briiliant book and equally good film.


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

oh i love "pretty woman" too, it is really cute (i love richard gere and julia roberts) i also love "Notting Hill" (cant help but giggle bout it, haha)
i have never heard "rebecca", what's the story about?
i dont like to read novel books so i guess that's a bad thing, i get bored easy and i prefer to watch it than read it.
anyway, thanks for the response.
appreciate it a lot!

Oh, with all the feel good movies so far, I recommend you to watch 50 First Dates. That's with Drew Barrymore. I love her. She is a really good actress. With love stories, I may say you watch The Notebook, A Walk To Remember and Forever Young. They are all very romantic movies. It will make you cry as well. I watch this movies over and over again and still it has the same effect to me. I get to cry from almost start to finish. For fun movies, I recommend Legally Blonde 1 and 2. I love Reese Witherspoon, she plays her role pretty good. I memorized some of the lines in this movie already. So fun. I hope you get to watch the movies I listed. Enjoy girl. Hope you like it.


myLot reputation of 95/100. jairgirl (928)   ranked 236 out of 7,889 in watching movies  7 months ago

hi shynie!
thanks for the time,
i have watched most of the movies you mention coz drew and adam are on top of my fave movie stars. i have watched most of their movies over and over again, haha!
yes, 50 first dates is really a wonderful romantic movie. i love the story and the songs ( now it is playing in my head, haha)
not sure if i have watch "forever young" but will search for it so i can refresh my memory, sounds familiar but i cant claim something i am not sure of so want to double check first.
i have watched only part 1 of legally blond and it is really cute, i like it as well but not enough for me to watch it over and over again.
but anyway, i appreciate you participation!
takecare!
