Friday OT #2 - Crappy-Cable-And-Chill

[Angie]

Wow great list. Agree with all of them.

I'd add Sandlot for sure, and I feel bad for saying this, but Big Trouble in Little China.

I've admittedly never seen all of Big Trouble in Little China, but Sandlot is a great one! That one is great from top to bottom.

 

[CtownCyclone]

Never seen it, i know i know.

I haven't seen a ton of these types of movies, call me CW i guess.

Stop what you are doing right this instant and watch it.

Never seen it, i know i know.

What is wrong with you?!

Once you've watched "Shawshank" once, you'll never watch it only once again.

 

[cyclones500]

Another: The Shining.

I probably haven't seen over half of the movies mentioned in the thread but have seen Shawshank, and yes, it's good.

Which brings up an idea for @Angie. How about an OT where we each admit to having never seen our own list of well known or famous movies?

I don't get Comedy Central anymore because I'm on Playstation Vue, but it used to be things like:

Grandma's Boy
Beerfest
Van Wilder
Clueless

If any of those came on my day was over.

 

[BillBrasky4Cy]

Not a movie but I'm not ashamed to admit that I can can get sucked into a good Cops marathon. Most of my movies were already out there....

 

[Farnsworth]

God i forget how awesomely bad this movie is.

I'm a ****, thats why. I hate anything over popular. In college I got choked out for saying Seinfeld sucks, no lie.

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

It's great campy fun.

 

[MeanDean]

Duplicating a lot of examples already listed. If I'm surfing and encounter these, I'll watch from whatever point in the movie until conclusion.
Shawshank
Back to the Future trilogy (prefer I and II, but will watch III, too)
Jaws (seemed to be on cable more often 10 or 15 years ago)
Fargo ("I wanna be in compliance!")
Psycho/Rear Window/(General Hitchcock marathon action)

Yes on Psycho. Hitchcock was a genius.

Hands encircling neck...

I generally have the same approach. But really, once in a while, things are actually Good AND Popular. Once in a while.

I love it! It's now officially in the queue. You guys are rocking it, I've got a ton of backlogged ideas!

I know, I know. And @Mr Janny loves it and has tried to get me to watch it, so I think I got all stubborn.

Very similar here. I mean, not the choked out part. But when things are just enormous and everyone tells me how much I'll like it (see Avatar, the Dan Brown books, several sitcoms), I refuse to even try.

 

[AmesHawk]

Haven't looked through all of them yet, but I would guess my main three have been mentioned.

Sandlot
Shawshank
Goonies

 

[kmcbrid]

The Fifth Element

 

[mb7299]

My Dog Skip, Click, and oddly enough Martin Lawrence movies, pretty much all of them were a good laugh from time to time.
