Anything with a Hepburn -- Kate or Audrey.

Two comedies I love but are definitely NOT PC: Blazing Saddles and The Ritz. Rita Moreno was hysterical doing a takeoff of Bette Midler as a cabaret singer at a gay bath house in NYC. And who can ever forget the campfire scene. Also loved Cat Ballou mainly because of Lee Marvin riding backwards.

I could watch and probably have watched The Dirty Dozen at least a hundred times. Ditto The Magnificent Seven.

Loved the Terminator series; ditto Indiana Jones series, especially the one with Sean Connery in it; the first trilogy of Star Wars.

Anything in which Barbra Streisand sings.

And I loved White Nights just because of the dancing between Barishnikov and Gregory Hines. A Chorus Line and All that Jazz are my favorite musicals.

Loved the Duke in Hellfighters. That and The Quiet Man are my two favorite John Wayne movies.

Favorite gratuitous violent movie: The Highlander.

Shrek I and II.

As you can tell, not much into chick flicks or dramas.
