This morning during breakfast I was flipping channels and discovered that Local Hero was on. In spite of my best intentions to get going early today I watched the rest of the movie (I own the DVD and have seen it several times before). Do you guys have movies that you cannot leave unwatched?

Snatch.

I probably watch it every couple of months with the subtitles included. The dialogue and the characters are brilliant. Bricktop cracks me up.

yup, Roadhouse, obviously.

Cool Hand Luke, though it's been a while since I've seen it on, used to be on quite often.
