So, what's that one movie that you'll always watch (or at least sit through part of it) if you come across it on TV?

For me, it's Goodfellas. Obviously the TMNT films count too, but aside from that...

Anything I saw before and kinda liked or that is the further adventures of a character I care about. Example: Smallville.

Any of the Rocky movies (even part 5 though thankfully it's rarely ever shown on TV).

Also, The Princess Bride.

It was Jersey Girl.

Also, Back To The Future, but besides that, I don't know.

NCIS, Law and Order: SVU...mostly TV shows I like.
If it's a movie I own...I'll probably just get my copy.

National Lampoons Vacation and European vacation, even though I have them on dvd it's kind of a treat for them to be on TV.

Probably Ghostworld, but also anything that's part of a sequel/trilogy as usually I sit there trying to figure out which one it is eg, Aliens, LOTR, etc.

Any movie that I really like and still have on DVD. Same goes for TMNT episodes I own on DVD. If they're on TV, I'll watch them anyway.

And I agree about Twilight, even though I haven't seen it on TV yet as I don't get movie channels.

Hmm, Kill Bill, both vols. For example, i've got it on DVD but the first movie was on a coupla months ago on the telly. I was flicking through the channels, just in time for the massive fight scene against the 88. Good times. Next night, yet again channel hopping, I get it just in time for the very same fight. Watched again! And then, the week later, I managed to catch the whole movie, staying up pretty late in the process (even though I can watch it any time!)

Another time was when I was in Portugal last year. Was in a bar which was showing Vol 2 on the telly. We were in another room, playing pool and getting drunk. I went through for a round and ended up watching the whole Pai Mei flashback scene with some old American geezer, who turned out to be a local...

The one movie? That's easy.

Still confused to no end as to how that's considered a comedy. :-?

How many times have you watched it? I know it took me 2 viewings to start to find it funny.

MADVENTURES!!!
It's a Finnish travelling show and must be the best show ever made for tv. They only did the third season in English for international audience, so I recommend you to watch it and if you get the previous seasons with subtitles.
