The Star Wars saga and all 10 of the Star Trek movies (not counting the reboot) are probably the ones I've seen the most. The Bond films, the original Planet of the Apes movies, LOTR, Time Machine (the original) come next.

Why leave the porn out? Surely most of the porn collection has stronger acting and plot than the Star Trek collection.

Shallow people here. Shallow.. Seems to me that a lot of you guys have only had sex with yourselves. Listening to progrock eating chocolate bars and washing them down with Coke while masturbating to something that is utterly non-human. i am sort of happy that I will never meet any one of you in person.

Every Star Wars movie and Star Trek movie, countless times. Lord of the Rings as well, I think I am almost tied with reading the books with the movies. Ronin many times, don't know why. And Patton about 50 times it seems...

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

It's nudie magazine day!

Christ, my childhood was littered with godawful Adam Sandler films.

"You can be my snack-pack...."

"Oh, God, I'll go to school..."

I hear you, Alitare! I must know that damn film off by heart as well!

"Oh, Billy, that's so funny! I...."

"Billy's in school, man...."

"Oh yeah....."

Norm Macdonald was freaking hilarious in that flick! Did you ever see his `Dirty Work' movie (which Sandler also cameo'd in)?! As good as the early Sandlers!

Don't mind me Dayvenkirq, I'm just a child of the 80's action star, these modern guys can't match up to the raw maschismo and kick-ass skills of the likes of Norris, Seagal, etc!

I say all this very tongue-in-cheek, of course!

Lost Highway - Probably 6 or 7 times, followed by Mullholand Drive (4 or 5 times).

I watched the complete 5 Seasons of Six Feet Under three times.

Sheavy, haven't seen the actual `Sorcerer' movie, but LOVE the soundtrack by Tangerine Dream - very dark and creepy, totally eerie! I'll have to look into the DVD, it it's widely available!

Being a child of the era of the 80's action star, I've seen the John Woo/Van Damme action stunner `Hard Target' from the early 90's at least 50 times, and know every damn word of it! Probably one of the last `proper' action films, and truly went out all guns blazing. Nothing like this modern `Bourne Identity'/thrillers pretending to be action films' nonsense!

Sigh, I remember the innocent times of the 70's/80's/early 90's action hero, when all their problems were solved with weapons....

Also some other films i've watched numerous times would Reservoir Dogs. Insanely violent, but also brilliant acting and directing.

Also Inglorious Basterds, Death Proof, It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World, Scarface, Taxi Driver, The Shining, 2001, Network, The Elephant Man, Young Frankenstein, No Country For Old men, Sleuth (the 70's one), Platoon, Apocalypse Now, The Dark Knight, Inception, Blue Velvet, Blade Runner, The Deer Hunter, Harry And Tonto, Tropic Thunder, The Silence of The Lambs, A Clockwork Orange, Moon, Training Day, Falling Down, The Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, and many others...

You want versatility? Brad Dourif's yer man

Surely one of the most under appreciated (at least by audiences, I'm sure professionally he is well thought of) actors of our time. He makes everything he is in better. He was about the only good part of Dune... unless you count the outtake of Patrick Stewart playing a Chapman stick. And his whole glass kissing scene in Alien Resurrection was pure brilliance. Most recently i saw him as the pot farm patriarch in Humboldt County. Another stellar role.
