Gawd,this is hard! I have sooo many that I love and eagerly watch repeatedly: Forrest Gump, Dances with Wolves, Goodfellas, Animal House, 16 Candles, the list goes on.

But my ultimate, as in every singletime it's on TV, somewhere would have to...

The Mummy w/Brendan Frasier. Don't know why, but I cannot resist that movie. Right behind it is Raiders of the Lost Ark.

This is a hard question. The Matrix and Good Will Hunting are two of my favorite films. The Oceans Eleven and Twelve are good too. I can quote lines from all of them. But if I had to see a film over and over again...it would be

The Lord of the Rings trilogy

My wife and I love LotR we watch them at least once a year... the extended versions that is.

Good Will Hunting really is a great character movie, it's one of my favorite coming of age films. While I typically like Robin Williams, Matt Damon does such a GREAT job in that film.

You must watch Josey Wales tonight. IMO Clint's best. Even better than Good, Bad, Ugly.

For me only picking one? Hmmmm

Shawshank Redemption slightly over Forrest Gump. Both feel-goods but very well casted, directed, acted, everything.

Other greats as people have mentioned: Caddyshack, Blazing Saddles, Indy and the Last Crusade, the Matrix (would be even better if the crappy 2nd and 3rd movies hadnt been made)

Oh and as Clerks was mentioned, must give love to Mallrats. Snoogins.

Although most thought it a stinker I watch The Postman everytime I come across it on Dish.
