Movies You Have Seen 10 Times (And Would Gladly See Again)

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

Come on; you know what I mean. You’re flipping through TV channels, and you come across a movie you’ve seen at least ten times. And you stop. You get caught up in a particular scene, and the next thing you know, you’ve watched the whole movie. Again.

I’ll throw out a few of mine:
[ul]
[li]The Cowboys[/li][li]Jaws[/li][li]Breaking Away[/li][li]True Grit[/li][li]Alien[/li][li]American Graffitti[/li][li]Lawrence of Arabia[/li][li]The Magnificent Seven[/li][/ul]
A lot of “guy movies” in there I guess, but hey, I’m a guy. What do you expect?

There are more, but some of 'em get kind of embarrassing. (Think John Hughes.)
