there are over 100...one that pops first is JAWS... indeed any Harryhausen... "The Man with the Golden gun" King Kong ( any version ) "Once upon a time in the West" all the original Universal Monster pictures...The Vikings... Conan... Man! I could keep going as thoughts come. But JAWS is definately the movie I have seen the most in my lifetime. Maybe about 60 times
Saw Golden and 7th Voyage of Sinbad when they came out back in the 50s and then Golden in the 70s. Loved those movies. Got to say, I think the movies I've seen the most are Bladerunner, the Magnificent Seven (at least 20 times or so) and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. Working on LOTR.
I love the THING... any movie with SNOW taking place in the Snow and where the main backdrop is snow... gets my vote. This is a lively topic and we could go forever.... I want to see what others say
Almost Famous,almost any Marvel movie,Phantom of the Paradise,The Return of the King,House of Flying Daggers, and probably dozens of others.Seven Swords,Red Cliff,Airplane Etc.....................
She was my very first celebrity crush. In those days there was no way to get pictures of her unless it was in genre magazines. One of the most beautiful women, ever.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

And like Mikey said, all the original Universal monster movies. Thanks for reminding me. Also the original version of the Thing ranks up there.
I did a film class essay on THE THING when I was in University. It was one of the movies I used to describe the Soviet paranoia of the time.

"Blazing Saddles". "Being There". "Clockwork Orange ". "John Holmes and the Tit Queens". (Just kidding on that last one.....kind of)
John was a hell of an actor. 'Blazing Saddles' formed my early views of what was funny.

Oh I love those Chinese Epics. That is FULL RETARD on the execution. Red Cliff has the most amazing battle scenes on water and land.
Phantom of the Paradise is one of my all time favorite soundtracks. That was a great Paul Williams movie. He had mad music skills unlike anyone else.
Mmmm mmm mm!!! Caroline!!!
