geez...I watch A LOT of tv I guess...I just love the old movies...I grew up watching them. I'm now sharing them with my 8 year old step daughter. She LOVES the Sound of Music. It's her current favorite. I just introduced her to ORIGINAL Parent Trap with Haley Mills. She kept saying "Look, they COPIED the FIRST one *the Lindsay Lohan version* but with older girls and blond hair!" She was quite indignant about it, but she loved it, and Pollyanna.

Funny thing is, I own all of these on DVD and I'll still sit and watch them on regular TV when they come on AND I wont get things done because I'll want to 'watch the end' like I don't know what happens.

Someone mentioned earlier in the thread...what is it with movies on TV that is so appealing? I agree though! I own, and rarely watch, all of the above DVD's (except Office Space...I need to get myself that one!) but if they are on TV, I become useless for two hours!

When At World's End came out and all of the movie channels were showing Dead Man's Chest non-stop, I must've sat through it half a dozen times. It's completely irrelevant that I bought it at the Emporium in the MK the day it was released on DVD and had watched it probably 10 times since then; it was on TV, so it was like a little unexpected treat. Same thing the summer before when CotBP was on constantly.

Blast From the Past

 

[eh24fan]

This is a ridiculous one but every freaking time it's on: The Great Escape.

That dang movie will come on at 11.30pm, just as Im crawling into bed, and Ill be darned if Im not up until 3, 4 am...watching it.

Then I was flipping through our 'OnDemand' this past weekend....and there it was! So what did I do? I spent a Saturday afternoon, watching Steve McQueen throw that ball against the wall....

One of my FAVES EVER! Steve McQueen and James Garner were amazingly good looking then huh?

 

[krcit]

Goodfellas-can't turn away from it. Best movie ever!

 

[Eeyore'sthebest]

I love Mr. Roberts. What an all time classic movie.
"It is I, Ensign Pulver and I just threw your stinkin' palm tree overboard! Now what's all this bull about no movie?"

And for some bizarre unknown reason, I love the new version of The Parent Trap. I think I've watched it more then my DD.

Oh yeah, and Trading Places with Dan Akroyd (sp?) and Eddie Murphy. I work in the commodities futures industry and spent many years in the building with that trading floor in the final scenes. Miss that building. The guys I work with can quote that movie line by line.
