Moonstruck

I also love The Sound of Music, but it would get old if I watched it over and over again.

BTW, congrats on the MOD powers McQ.  I bow to your superior authority.   :hail:

LOL! Yeah, that byline under my Mod thingy is laetus' doing. I'm not sure how to change it to something less South Parky.

I was hoping to have, "Kneel before Zod!" or something like that.

Yup, The Great Escape is another great one.  Oh, how about The Dirty Dozen!  I haven't seen that in years...time to watch it again.  Hubby loves WWII movies so I'm sure he won't mind sitting through it again.

I had to look up Ray Harryhausen on IMDb.  Clash of the Titans was amazing when it came out, but now it just makes me laugh.  Special effects sure have come a long way since then.

OH MAN!!!! How could I have left out The Dirty Dozen???!!!

That's going in the DVD player tonight!

You make me so hot when you talk Dirty Dozen!  

Ray Harryhausen's stuff is some good, some not so good, but he was so original and for his time, he did great things in movies. I think his best might be Jason and The Argonauts. When I was a kid that movie scared the crap out of me. Dreamed of skeletons, and gigantic bronze statues chasing me around!

[donkeyhoty]

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead is a good, fairly obscure film.

South Park: BLU, and Team America: World Police is a sweet duo.

Another obscure one is Topsy-Turvy.  It's about Gilbert and Sullivan, but it's not a musical.  Of course, there are scenes from their musicals and some rehersals, so that's a plus or minus depending on your perspecitve.

Super Troopers
Unforgiven
Pulp Fiction
Krull
Papillon
Zoolander

[MommaSquid]

I have to add Groundhog Day and The Princess Bride to my list.

[McQ]

I have to add Groundhog Day and The Princess Bride to my list.

We really have similar taste in movies. The Princess Bride is something that I can watch again and again. It never gets old. And Groundhog Day is excellent. It does however, have the effect of making me really dislike, "I Got You, Babe".
