Just a thought.
Years ago I tried to stop using the word “BEST.” I now ask, “What is your favorite so and so.”
But in straightening out my discs, I thought of another question: “What are the movies I have seen the most?” It crossed my mind because I don’t think “A League of their Own” is one of the greatest movies ever made, but I so enjoy seeing it and I have seen it many times.
What is your bunch of most seen movies?
Mine are:
2001: A Space Odyssey
A Clockwork Orange
A League of their Own
Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (The big winner)
Alien and Aliens
Annie Hall
Casablanca
Citizen Kane
Close Encounters
Dr. No
ET
Fantasia
From Russia with Love
Godfather I and II
King Kong
Maltese Falcon
My Fair Lady
North by Northwest
Shawshank Redemption
Singing in the Rain
Star Trek 2, 4 and 6
Superman I and II (Donner edition)
Terminator I and II
This Island Earth
Thunderball
When Harry Met Sally
Wizard of Oz

Good topic, Barry.
This is totally off the top of my head, so there may be some I've missed.
- The two Star Wars Trilogies (I can't imagine ever rewatching the Disney Trilogy, though)
- The first four Indiana Jones movies, with Raiders as the far away winner
- Napoleon Dynamite
- Waiting for Guffman
- Eraserhead
- Citizen Kane
- Hot Fuzz
- Gremlins
- Brazil
- Iron Man
- The Wizard of Oz
- Halloween (original)
- The Jerk
- Galaxy Quest
- National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
- Hereditary
- John Wick
- Labyrinth
- The Legend of Hell House
- Pan's Labyrinth
- Pee Wee's Big Adventure
- The Thing
- Waiting for Guffman
Compiling this made me realize that it's time to revisit some old favorites that didn't make this list but should.

Very interesting. I should have put Galaxy Quest on my list.
