“Buckaroo Banzai” I definitely watch a couple of times a year. I wish someone would reboot it as a TV series.
“Blade Runner” at least once a year.
My standard rewatch movies:
“The Dish” – My favourite film. It makes me feel good every time I watch it.
“Pleasantville” – My #2. It’s such a clever concept.
“The Fifth Element” – If I’m looking for a fun movie this is the one I pull out of my Blu-Ray collection.
“Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” – It’s so good! Michael Caine’s Aussie accent in the last scene is gold!
“Airplane!” – The perfect parody.
“The Matrix” – This blew my mind when I first saw it and it still holds up. Sequels? What sequels?
“Tremors” – A perfect blend of humour, horror and classic sci-fi.
“Serenity” – It makes me sad that we never got more “Firefly” but I’ll take what I can get.
“Blade” – The best vampire movie ever made and I’ll fight anyone who says otherwise.
I only recognized 6, 3, and 1 – three of my favorites, too.
I am definitely older than you are, which is reflected in my taste in movies. “Love Actually” and “The Sound of Music”, sentimental hits, are my absolute favorites and I’ve seen them dozens of times. Add to that “Uncle Buck” and “Planes, Trains, and Automobiles”.
A number of old black and white films are on my list, as well. It’s a pretty well rounded
group with some sci-fi, drama, comedy (of course), and a blockbuster musical. I’m not sure I could pick out a top 10, though. Maybe a top 15?
Please post the names of your films for those of us who have not yet achieved movie enlightenment, but would like to. I feel like I have seen #2, but I can’t place it (although I have a feeling I might have already listed it).
Galaxy Quest! I loved the documentary on Amazon about making the film, I’ll be waiting on a sequel even after I’m a holographic upload enjoying my digital afterlife.

A lot of fun movies listed. I’ll add Galaxy Quest to the list and The Incredibles. Both are very quotable.
Hanging in there @Ponytail?
