I have a DVD collection to rival my fabric stash!

When I was a kid, my favorite movies were
It's a Wonderful Life
Moby Dick

--- I would watch them on TV as many times as they broadcast them.

My most watched movies at the moment are
The Birdcage
Galaxy Quest
I can watch those an infinite number of times, apparently.

Love these others, too (in no particular order)
All Marx Bros Films
Early Woody Allen
Time Bandits
Monty Python & The Holy Grail
the BBC production of Hamlet with Patrick Stewart and David Tennant
A Fish Called Wanda
Fierce Creatures
Eric The Viking
Princess Mononoke
My Neighbor Totoro
The original Fantasia
Splash
Roxanne
Persepholis (probably spelled wrong - the animation based on the comic written by an Iranian woman)
2001: A Space Oddessy
THX 1138
Star Wars (eps 4-6)
Lord of the Rings trilogy
Seven Samurai
Kagemusha
Hidden Fortress
The Unforgiven
A Bug's Life
The Magnificent Seven
Ice Pirates
Any Mel Brooks movie
Dracula (with Frank Langella)
Terms of Endearment
West Side Story
X-Men (all of them)
Kate & Leopold
You've Got Mail
French Kiss
Princess Bride
The Fisher King
The Big Lebowski
Star Man
Animal House

Garland's Star is Born
Emma - the BBC one, not Platrow version
Pretty Woman

Old black and white science fiction, especially
"The day the earth stood still" which sent chills down
my spine all those years ago.

All those marvelous musicals they no longer make, like
South Pacific, Oklahoma, and the others with marvelous
music and voices that will last as long as we have recording
devices.

I love the "sleep" trio.

Sleepless in Seattle
While you were Sleeping
Sleeping with the Enemy
I really liked Ishtar too; we may be the only 2 on the planet. My son groans every time I say I liked it. I also liked the Bodyguard (even though I can't stand Costner)

What's so good about a question like this is there are already probably a few hundred titles listed here and none of us is wrong! I love reading other people's choices, lots of interesting answers posted. Look forward to more responses.
