Old films you get the urge to watch again

The stunt man film 'Hooper' just popped in my head and feel I should watch it again.

 

what i really like on a day like this is to get out the biscuits and tea and watch all my auld favourite films, starting with the three above and then maybe fistful of dollars or barry lyndon

 

I also recall that Cannonball Run was good but The Gumball Rally less so?

 

Somewhat spoiled by Harvey Keitel's accent ?

 

Full Metal Jacket, Apocalypse Now, Breakfast Club, Trainspotting, Robocop, Friday, Blade, that kind of thing usually. Predictable and obvious, I know, but still good.

 

not for me.

 

ferris bueller's day off?

 

i'll see your live and die in la and raise you dirty harry

 

Full Metal Jacket popped in my head a couple of weeks ago. To be honest I could watch a lot of Kubrick on a loop. Don't watch war films much/often but has been a long while since I have seen it.

 

It isn't really old, or they aren't but I like to watch the Bourne films again and again.

 

Plenty of great films mentioned so far, but the ones I'll (almost) always watch if they are on would be:

• Full Metal Jacket
• Apocalypse Now
• Breakfast Club
• Ferris Bueller's Day Off
• Kelly's Heroes

I'd add to the list:

• Seven Samurai
• The Great Escape
• The 39 Steps (Hitchcock version)
• Rear Window
• North By Northwest
• His Girl Friday
• Alien
• Aliens
• Shaun Of The Dead
• Se7en
• Bugsy Malone
• The Man Who Would Be King
• Raiders Of The Lost Ark

Then there's films I rewatch probably far more than they really deserve:

• Zero Dark Thirty
• Black Hawk Down
• Sicario
• Carlos

 

I've seen some films so many times it's silly.

T2 being top of the list, but also to name a few

Leon
LOTR trilogy ( OK not old)
Ronin
5th element
Jaws
Enemy of the state

 

That too. Saw it again a couple of weeks ago

 

My two favourite films

 

Do you know what it says on Jack Lemmon's gravestone ?

 

No?

 

This always cheers me up too...



Ellen Barkin has a tremendous Irish accent in this to be sure to be sure.

 

Well made films with great music !!

 

Most of these with the addition of The Blues Brothers and Blade Runner

 

Jack Lemmon
IN

 

Utter shite, all mouth and no pants but Luc Besson is always a pleasure
