Best movie to watch when you're sick...

What is your favorite movie to watch when you are sick? I really enjoy Interview with a Vampire for some reason. It's a great movie!!

The Exorcist.

I kid, I kid. Anyway, I don't know if there are any movies that are especially good to watch when you're sick, but I was once sick on a couch all day, and watched the entire 8-hour television miniseries The Stand pretty much straight through. I wasn't sick enough to sleep, but I as sick enough that I couldn't eat or move around much, so watching something long and entertaining like that was a good fit.

Good Will Hunting or The Shawshank Redemption I suppose. Anything that's slow paced but engaging. I'm impatient enough at the best of times, but if I were in a position where I'd be less willing to do anything else but watch a DVD, I think those two would be perfect.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Comedies no earlier than the 80s like Meet The Parents/Fockers, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Fast Times At Ridgemont High, Happy Gilmour, etc.

John Hughes films, especially Sixteen Candles. Or any feel good nostalgic film that I have seen 100 times that I can drift in and out of sleep to.

Gladiator movies!

Yeah, if I am just going to sack out on my couch all day and be in and out of consciousness, I'd probably reach for a TV show more than a particular movie. To sit around and watch the entire run of "Sports Night" or "Freaks & Geeks" or "Spaced" or maybe a season or two of "NewsRadio" or "Taxi" or "The Rockford Files". I frippin' LOVE having entire seasons of my favorite television shows in my home library.

I've re-watched "Lonesome Dove" a couple times when I was sick/depressed/bored and not going to leave the house basically all day.

I'll do a sort of theme day sometimes; I'll watch like Beverly Hills Cop, Midnight Run and Fletch back-to-back-to-back, or Chinatown, The Long Goodbye and Night Moves or The Hustler, The Gambler and California Split. Things like that.

But I have an obnoxiously large movie collection, better than some video stores, so my possibilities of combos and themes and moods or whatever are nigh on limitless.

It depends, but I usually go with Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

well when i had my teeth taken out i bought and watched the whole LOTR trilogy , and now they are 3 of my favorite movies

also i saw godfather for the first time - which i didn't like much the first time (now it's one of my favorites)

I with Holden on this one. I prefer to get a series going and do about 8 episodes in a row.

I played the hell out of my Twin Peaks, Law and Order, and Law and Order SVU, while trying to get over my UTI that I never had. TV shows do work out the best. I like the theme idea for movies, that Holden had. I use to connect mine by actors, when having a tough time picking something out. Say for instance, Tom Hanks ~ Splash ~ John Candy ~ The Great Outdoors ~ Dan Aykroyd ~ Ghostbusters ~ Bill Murray . . . You have to have a large collection for this to go on for a long amount of time.
