Name movies you never get tired of watching

Really? Though honestly that doesn't surprise me. I know a lot of people who don't like The Fountain. It's probably my favorite movie if I absolutely had to pick one. Darren and Clint make one of the best duo's in the film industry. I love the story and the score is in my top 5. It's a matter of opinion i guess.
 
Yeah don't get me wrong I didn't hate it, I really wanted to like it... I just didn't think it was that good. Visually I enjoyed it, also the story of how long it took to get made, the challenges they went through, that was interesting. I guess maybe I just don't understand it well enough, my friend Bryan loves it, it's one of his favorites, and he LOVES Darren's work. I really don't so much. I felt Pi was good, it was simple but it was pretty good. I didn't love it, it was just good. I thought Requiem was useless pretty much. Most of my friends think it's amazing, but for different reasons. Bryan loves it, of course, but my friend Matt says it's a "screwed up movie" but you have to watch it once because it's so depressing and it's powerful and all of this. I didn't find it depressing at all, I didn't care about any of the characters, I wanted them all to die basically, they weren't sympathetic to me, just losers. I didn't feel sorry for them, I didn't like them, I didn't have anything in common with them, so ultimately I just was bored the entire time.

The Fountain had a haunting score, I did like that, and some of the visuals were pretty neat. It was a strange movie, one that I felt as though I wanted to like, but ultimately I wasn't able to connect with it. I'm not a love story fan either, though, I pretty much hate that kind of film, and so since it was I guess this ultimate love story that didn't appeal to me. Somehow it was supposed to be a manlier love story? I don't really know. It had parts I liked, but as a whole it didn't work for me.

...I wouldn't put Eurotrip there...

Actually, seeing Eurotrip on the list made me giggle for a second. I originally thought it's the kind of thread where you post your individual list of masterpieces, but then I realized it's more into the direction of films you just enjoy watching over and over again.

Probably like Ezekiel667, I too find Eurotrip hilarious, so why not? :beer:

I would also recommend Rat Race if we're already at comedies. That's an insane one!
