Rodent Repeats... A Top 50 List

Tools    





Doing my Top Movies reshuffle early this year...


I've basically gone over my favourite movies again, and have discovered something.
The "Repeat" of the title is because I tend to repeat the same movies over and over in my lists, just in a different order... and... some people have music, others have their TV, but well, personally, I switch the player on and stick in a DVD which I don't mind if it repeats itself over and over as generic background noise.


A lot of the time I'll have the film on once, then flick it to the Commentary Track and play again. If there's more than one Commentary, I've been known to go through the lot.


So, this list of movies I've repeated in my past favourites lists is also a list of movies I use as a default background noise when I'm MoFo-ing and surfing the interweb.


Oh, and... a new(ish) Top 10 will be coming up as well

Might as well get the first couple out the way... remember, Generic Background Noise, DVD player set on repeat


50 - Warrior





49 - No Country For Old Men






I've never been a fan of anything TMNT and I don't think I've seen the movie. I vaguely remember liking ID4 but haven't seen it in about 20 years.



Gonna chuck 4 at once in this one seeing as they are what they are...
And, yes... I have actually sat and repeated #45-43, then repeated them again with the various Commentary Tracks


46 - Lawless





45 - The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King Extended Cut





44 - The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring Extended Cut





43 - The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers Extended Cut





I've never been a fan of anything TMNT and I don't think I've seen the movie. I vaguely remember liking ID4 but haven't seen it in about 20 years.
Here's the gist of it: Close Encounters with 100% more explosions. And Jeff Goldblum.

I tried watching Lawless but ended up shutting if off (Shia Labeouf ). I hate all things LOTR and Star Wars (though I've not seen TFA, I'm just assuming I'll hate it). Haven't seen Blade Runner.



Don't you guys ever get bored talking about the same movies over and over again, everyday for years and years? What good does it do? Stop the insanity.
