Amy: ear-deep in novels, poetics, and historical documents.

I remember seeing Legend when I was really tiny... like 3... I have been meaning to rent it for about 6 years...

*puts on list of "movies I haven't seen for ages and want to see again sometime"*

Also-- any of the Disney movies, pre-Lion King. I'd watch those over and over and over again.

Pokémon 2000, brillaint,execpt I've seen it trillons of times and can even write the script. That was a year ago, so I'm no longer a fan.

I used to find Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines hilarious and watched it many many times.

Yes of course most people (secretly) enjoy watching The Great Escape, The Sound of Music, James Bond films, but what about those childhood films you just feel u have to watch again.

Anyone remember "The London Connection" or "Last Flight of Noah's Ark"? What about "Herbie Goes Banana's" or "The Incredible Hulk"? These are by no means any good, but they take me back to my childhood, and seeing them these days is really just therapy for my nostalgia!!

Close Encounters of the Third Kind, had a huge efect on me when I was a kid! Then the new edit had an even better effect on me!

Loved the Time Bandits - watched it more times than I care to admit.

Also loved A Fish Called Wanda, and Four Weddings. Not that there is a British theme here, of course.

Great Escape - a childhood film??? I still love it now. My personal nominations for "films that have dated most appallingly since I was 10" would by Labryinth and Jason And The Argonauts.
