I have watched Crocodile Dundee a few times but I wouldn't usually watch a film so have only ever seen a few.

movies boring ? but seriously
of course they are better in a cinema but most of these won't be coming to yr local multiplex anytime soon. Get a bigger screen.

None of these are boring and all have hidden depths.

Some like it hot
On Moonlight Bay
By the light of the silvery moon
Meet me in St Louis
The day of the Jackal - fantastic film

In no particular order.......


Notting Hill
Dave
True Lies
Die Hard
39 Steps
Lethal Weapon


Much prefer murders to musicals..... :-D

A few years ago I used to work on the Rocky Horror Show and could watch it again and again (stage and film).
I also love Metropolis, Brief Encounter and Molière's Le Malade Imaginaire (true of a number of people today in some ways!).

Cynthia - I forgot the 39 Steps - just love the one with Robert Powell - saw it again last week :-D

I like that version too Ann....... :-D :-D

Dirty dancing, frozen, hunger games, hobbit andddd the Saw compilation :-D

A few more

The Princess Bride
Key Largo
Northwest Frontier ( I always watch through my fingers as they walk that bridge...even though I have seen it so many times ;-) )
Schindler's List
Some like it hot
Educating Rita


Musicals: Les Mis, Joseph, Jesus Christ Superstar ( when it was on), Barnum ditto 12 plus times to that :-) Tbh I'd probably go and watch almost anything on stage at least once though, given the chance...I just love theatres in general :-)

The Sting is the only time I have ever seen a cinema audience get to it's feet and clap. Should that have been ...to their feet? Crocodile Dundee3 was absolute rubbish. We came out of the cinema after seeing Shirley Valentine, and immediately booked our first (of many) holiday to the Greek Islands.

Shirley Valentine was a classic

also loved "The Full Monty" great comedy

In the fifties I saw The Robe and loved it. Wonder if I'd enjoy it if I saw it now.

Spartacus - could never ever watch that again - OH and I had just got married when we saw that - we both exited the cinema crying and I didn't sleep for nights worrying about Jean Simmons after she held the baby up to touch Kirk's feet on the cross - bo hoo hoo :-( :-( :-( :-(

Sorry Bob,but if I choose not to watch something, I don't find it necessary to make a value judgement on it.

I thought both of the Crocodile Dundee films were fine pieces of escapism.

I thought Crocodile Dundee 1 and 2 were both excellent, it was the third one I didn't like.

I would agree with you there. I only saw that one once.
