    You know when you are surfing channels on a lazy afternoon or evening and you see "that" movie is on, so you hunker down and watch it . . . for the one-millionth time! It never gets old, you always enjoy watching it and you'll watch it again if it airs again in 6 months.

    I can't explain it, but I will always stop to watch:

    1. In The Line Of Fire (Clint Eastwood)
    2. The Net (Sandra Bullock)
    3. The Object Of My Affection (Jennifer Aniston)

    What's your "again and again" movie(s)?

    I really don't like watching movies more than once or twice... Except "The Right Stuff". I can't count the number of times I've watched it. :)

    These are always on either AMC, TNT, or TBS and I always watch-

    Shawshank Redemption or The Fugitive with Harrison Ford. Love em both. Oh, and any of the Bourne movies with Matt Damon.

    Okay.....you said it is a movie ON THE TV.
    Many of my favorite movies - I WILL NOT WATCH ON TV.
    They censor the greatest lines of the movie !....I hate that !
    So, this short list is NOT my favorites but.......the ones I find myself
    watching if I channel surf.
    *
    The Godfather ------ ( if I surf by......I get HOOKED IN )
    Miss Congeniality ------- ( I think there are ALOT of funny bits by everyone in this movie )
    Die Hard ------ ( I broke my rule last time it was on + watched it even with ALL the GREAT CURSES deleted ! )
    ------------------ they always overdub "forget you" for "f--k you" --- and NO "yippee-ki- ay motherf**ker ! "
    Griswold's To Wally World --- ( too damn funny to pass )
    *
    *
    I will not watch on TV
    Goodfellas
    A Few Good Men
    Vegas Vacation
