Napoleon Dynamite, loved that movie in High school and it’s been a comfort movie ever since. Funny and easily quotable, it’s a staple in my house.
Just imagine you’re weightless, in the middle of the ocean, surrounded by tiny little seahorses.
Airplane! And Star Trek the Wrath of Khan.
saving private ryan, just such a good movie. and a Christmas story every year
The Other Guys. At first glance, it’s a buddy cop comedy that harkens back to Lethal Weapon, but with humor typical to ~2010. But, the more you watch it, the more Zucker brothers esque, 1980s surrealist comedy influences you notice. One of the most subtly weird and funny movies to me, I’ve probably seen it, no lie, 10 or 15 times.
Usual Suspects.
Interstate 60
Cars
Airplane!
“Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel” (Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella). It runs at least a dozen times around each Christmas since I was a kid, and is part of the usual Christmas habits.
Fight Club, but I can’t talk about it.
You already broke the first two rules.
I watched this movie and read the book so many times I either made up a scene in my head or it was cut between theater and video release. I remember a scene where Tyler tells everyone to take a page of the phone book go buy a gun report it stolen and trade with the person next to you. Maybe I should check for a director’s cut.
Smiley Face. Great Anna Farris stoner flick!
Transformers The Movie (1986). I still get teary eyed when Optimus Prime dies.
Jesus. Spoiler alert!
Aliens
I used to fall asleep to John dies at the end for awhile so partial watches that wins hands down. But actually watching the whole movie probably lord of the rings or young Frankenstein.
