I like a lot of movies but not too many that I will (or have) watched multiple times. A few that fit the bill: It's a wonderful life. On Golden Pond. Platoon. Quigley Down Under. Unforgiven. 3:10 to Yuma (with Russell Crowe, not Glenn Ford). Tombstone. To Live and Die in LA. (and yes- Die Hard and First Blood ) E.T. Blazing Saddles. Forest Gump. Saving Private Ryan. Evil Roy Slade. An Officer and a Gentleman. Super Cop (Jackie Chan) Airplane. Young Frankenstine- (just a quick aside here- I found out the other day that the reason the horses aways neighed when they heard "Frau Bruker" is that bruker is German for glue factory).
AW screwit- I guess I do have quite a few I like enough to watch over and over- or at least used to. I keep remembering more and more.... Jaws. Almost any Mel Brooks or Leslie Nielson film. Training Day. Shallow Hal. Uncle Buck. Almost every Clint Eastwood film.( But particularly The Legend of Josey Wales and Dirty Harry). All the Death Wish movies but paticularly the 1st. Dog Day Afternoon. Joyride-(Candycane....) Ferris Buelers Day Off. The Sixth Sense. Breaking Down? (I'm pretty sure that's the name- Micheal Douglas leaves a traffic jam on the freeway and goes on a killing spree). Field of Dreams. Bagger Vance. One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest.
Not a fan of horror movies in the least, but the Saw movies, Children of the Corn, Food of the Gods - (corny, but I liked it back in the day). Jurrasic Park.
Not that I'd want to repeatedly watch all of them, but did Morgan Freeman ever make a bad movie?
I'm going to stop now -this could go on forever.

Did you ever see "Last of The Dogmen" with Tom Berringer.
I like almost any action movie with him or Rutger Haur.

I know I've seen some Rutger Hauer movies but I'm drawing a blank on them as well. Refresh my memory.
Crap- I just thought of a couple more classics- Star Trek and the Matrix.

Which reminds me of something somewhat similar- Blade.

Last of the dogmen also has Barbara Hershey. A prison bus flips on its side in the mountains. The prisoners escape into the woods and the local sheriff hires Tom and his dog to hunt them down.
He stumbles across some arrows and a kill site which leads him to believe that an over looked tribe of Indians (reservation not convenience) still roam the forest.
Quigley is also in my video library. I love good westerns. Sadly they do not come up to par in the last few years.

Those are the ones with "diamond fire technology", right? (a diamond shaped 3 prong electrode?)My mom gave me some recent issues of Popular Mechanics. There's an ad in their for "Pulstar pulse plugs". These are supposed to be the cat's meow in spark plug technology. They have built-in capacitors and are supposed to deliver a much higher energy spark in 2 nanoseconds. According to them, the plugs were dyno tested in a stock Nissan 350Z by Modified Magazine and produced an 11 HP increase over iridium spark plugs.
I haven't tried either of them and this reminds me, I'm still running those 5 year old plugs.
