You're right. That's another classic...

I left a couple of others off (ironically, all with "America" in the title)

Coming to America
Beavis & Butthead Do America
Team America: World Police

i completely forgot about boondock saints. awesome movie

13th warrior was one of those "man i hate that banderas guy" but turned out to be a really cool flick

i will stay up and watch army of darkness no matter what time it comes on. great flick

johnny dangerously, michael keatons best movie ever. i like mr mom too, but refuse to watch it on lifetime.

office space is essential to anyone that has a job. i dont know how many time ive used the "pc load letter, what the **** does that mean"

[clarkster]

fargo, that one of those movies that the first time you watch it youre thinking "this is the biggest waste of time ever" but after the 2nd or 3rd time you start to get it, especially if you know anyone from up north.
animal house and blazing saddles are also movies that no matter what, ill watch again and again.
goodfellas is another one.

thought of another one this morning.
spies like us

Virtually any Sean Connery or Roger Moore Bond movie would be on my list. I'm sure there are a few exceptions, but not many. Those two actors defined Bond for me in a way nobody has after them. The current Bond is pretty good, but give me the classics...

I just picked up another movie I could watch again and again- Superman (Christopher Reeve).

I'm going to buy Superman II at some point. That movie was great, as well...

National Lampoon's Vacation.. classic!

I agree, Roger Moore was Bond to me. Live and Let Die is still one of my favorites to date.
