Movies you've seen more than a dozen times

Post by BurtReynolds »

Not many, but a few, usually for research purposes:

The Dark Crystal
Fight Club
Secret of NIMH
The Good The Bad and The Ugly
Predator
Clerks
maybe The Matrix and Pulp Fiction

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

That one is not for research purposes. I just like it.

Difficult to say for sure, but probably:

The original Star Wars trilogy

There were some movies I loved as a kid, like Better Off Dead, Armed and Dangerous, Big, Big Trouble In Little China, Goonies, Karate Kid, Loaded Weapon and a few others. But not sure I’ve seen them that many times.

There are some movies that I as an adult watch every few years, like The Lord Of The Rings trilogy. Still a dozen times is a lot.
