There are some movies that when I notice they’re on TV, I’ll forget everything else and watch them. Most of them I’ve seen many times. Or partly seen because many times by the time I notice it’s on TV the movie might already be well under way.
Just for fun, I’m sharing my list here. Maybe it’ll bring back memories for you! Check out the YouTube video I made where I talk some more about these movies I like watching over and over.
This list is in no particular order of how much I like the film:
- A League of their Own
- Grease – I’ve probably seen it at least 100 times.
- Ocean’s 11 – I’m more familiar with the one with George Clooney and Brad Pitt, but I’ll watch the older one with the Rat Pack stars if I see it on the TV listings.
- Speed
- Point Break – ah man, how can you not love a movie starring Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze!
- Dirty Dancing
- The Perfect Storm
- Gone in 60 Seconds
- Catch me if you Can
- Fast Five – I’ve seen all the Fast and Furious movies, but this one where they steal a safe containing 100 million dollars from a police station in Brazil that belongs to a corrupt businessman is my favorite.
- Wild Hogs
- RV
- Jaws
- Secretariat
- Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken
- Carrie
- Christine
- Urban Cowboy – haven’t seen it in years! Come on TV stations – start showing it!
- Roman Holiday with Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck, though I’ll watch the remake with Catherine Oxenberg and Ed Begley Jr.
- Splash
- Cliffhanger
- The Fugitive
- U-571
- National Treasure
- Con Air
- Face Off
- Double Jeopardy
- Miss Congeniality
Christmas movies
And just because it’s coming up to that time of the year, if I spot these movies on TV during the holidays, I’ll watch them over and over while I can. Short life span on Christmas movies!
- Elf
- National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
- While you were Sleeping
- Serendipity
Your favorites?
What about you? Do you have any movies that you can’t help watching over and over every time they’re on TV?
