I like watching sports. I think sports movies are boring. I don't get the draw.
Click to expand...
Agreed. Never saw Hoosiers, Field of Dreams or Bull Durham. I generally don't like sports movies.
I did like Miracle though.
Click to expand...
Of them, Miracle is one of the better ones. I would just rather watch a documentary about the events or the actual replay of the games. Not terrible, I'd just rather watch a different type of movie.
Click to expand...
For you non-sports movie guys here are few more rewatchable options:

The Natural
Rudy
For Love of the Game (the baseball parts)
Bull Durham
Remember the Titans
Blue Chips
Kingpin

All are immensely rewatchable every time I stumble upon them. I am sure I am missing some.
 
There are just a few for me:
  • Shawshank (mentioned a ton of times already)
  • Tombstone
  • The Matrix (which I haven't seen anyone mention yet unless I missed it)

I only saw Kingpin out of that list but not sure I'd call it a sports movie. It's like Slap Shot. Love the movie but it's less about hockey. I also enjoyed Welcome to Wrexham even though I don't care about soccer.
 
I'd almost always rather watch something new but will always fall back to one of the 007 movies when they're available to stream. If I come across Casablanca, The Dirty Dozen, Bringing Up Baby or The Bandwagon on TCM, I'll definitely put down the remote and watch for a while.

Lots of great movies listed here, but I'm old.

The Quiet Man

or just about any John Wayne movie is worth a stop and watch.

ChatGPT says that this list says this about me (and I'd say it's pretty accurate, if a bit generic):
You’re thoughtful, emotionally intelligent, and appreciate high-stakes human stories, whether they unfold in space, war, childhood, or dreams. You're inspired by transformation, honor, and resilience. You admire craft and rewatch movies that keep giving on multiple viewings—both emotionally and intellectually.

Good idea. My list of movies I’ll rewatch, and bot-interpretation:
These are some of my favorite movies: The Lobster, Life is Beautiful, Into the Wild, Poor Things, The Shawshank Redemption, Old School, Step-Brothers, Talladega Nights, and Excalibur.

What does this list say about me?


ChatGPT said:


That’s a fascinating and eclectic list—it paints a picture of someone who’s introspective, values depth and originality, but also knows how to cut loose and enjoy absurd humor. Here’s a breakdown of what your taste might say about you:


🎭 You appreciate the surreal and philosophical.
  • The Lobster and Poor Things are both offbeat, surreal, and allegorical. This suggests:
    • You’re drawn to originality and ideas that challenge conventional thinking.
    • You probably enjoy art that’s open to interpretation or forces you to reflect on identity, society, or relationships in unconventional ways.

❤️ You have a deeply empathetic side.
  • Life is Beautiful and The Shawshank Redemption highlight human resilience, love, and hope in the face of tragedy or injustice.
    • You value emotional depth and stories that affirm the human spirit.
    • You’re likely someone who can see beauty even in pain or darkness.

🏕️ You’re a seeker—someone who questions the norm.
  • Into the Wild and even Excalibur suggest:
    • A fascination with self-discovery, freedom, and perhaps the mythic or heroic journey.
    • You might feel a pull between the modern world and something more raw, spiritual, or untamed.

😂 You love absurd, over-the-top comedy.
  • Old School, Step Brothers, and Talladega Nights show:
    • A healthy appreciation for ridiculous, juvenile humor.
    • You likely don’t take yourself too seriously and know the value of comic relief.
    • You may also enjoy satire or find humor in how overblown some parts of American culture can be.

⚔️ You’re intrigued by myth and timeless themes.
  • Excalibur brings in:
    • A love of epic storytelling, mythology, and perhaps some nostalgia for big, sweeping tales about honor, betrayal, or destiny.
    • A connection to archetypes—kings, quests, betrayal, magic.
Click to expand...
So, in short:

You’re a curious, open-minded person who moves between extremes: the deeply meaningful and the absurdly comedic. You crave emotional richness and philosophical ideas, but you also know when to let go and just laugh at the madness of it all. You’re a romantic realist with a taste for the weird and the wonderful.

and I got

Based on your movie list, here's what it suggests about your personality, tastes, and maybe even your sense of humor:



1. You enjoy cleverness—whether in dialogue or concept.​


  • 12 Angry Men, My Cousin Vinny, and Office Space all feature smart writing, strong character dynamics, and sharp social commentary.
  • You probably appreciate people who think on their feet and situations that turn on logic or wit.


2. You have a deep love for genre blends (especially sci-fi, action, and comedy).​


  • Movies like Galaxy Quest, The Fifth Element, Starship Troopers, and Ghostbusters II all mix science fiction with humor or satire.
  • You're likely not into hard sci-fi as much as fun sci-fi—stories that prioritize world-building and character over strict realism.


3. You like big, bold entertainment with a sense of fun.​


  • Independence Day, Die Hard, True Lies, and Deep Blue Sea are popcorn flicks with charisma, one-liners, and big stakes.
  • You probably enjoy escapism but want it with memorable characters and some flair.


4. You lean toward underdogs, outsiders, or the "unlikely hero."​


  • The Goonies, Office Space, My Cousin Vinny, and Hellboy all center on characters who aren't the traditional hero types.
  • You likely enjoy rooting for the unconventional person who figures things out on their own terms.


5. You enjoy the supernatural or mystical, but with structure or symbolism.​


  • Pan's Labyrinth, Constantine, Hellboy, and Stargate bring in myth, religion, or fantasy, but they do it with a clear set of rules or themes.
  • You probably enjoy the idea of deeper meanings or unseen worlds—but not in a vague or overly abstract way.


6. Your humor leans toward the absurd and the satirical.​


  • Airplane, Galaxy Quest, and Starship Troopers all poke fun at the genres they inhabit.
  • You're probably someone who doesn’t mind things getting a little ridiculous—as long as it’s smart or self-aware.


TL;DR – You're likely:​


  • A lover of clever writing and genre mashups
  • Drawn to charismatic underdogs
  • A fan of both action and absurdity
  • Appreciative of layered stories with both surface fun and deeper implications
  • Probably a nostalgic soul with sharp taste and a soft spot for cult classics

Would you say that’s a fair assessment?

said yes and got

Awesome! That makes perfect sense given your movie taste—you're someone who clearly values both entertainment and intelligence in your stories. You like when things are fun, but not dumbed down. And you're totally fine with a movie being weird or offbeat—as long as it knows what it's doing.
 
10 that I don't think have been mentioned:

Patton
Dazed and Confused
Slapshot
A Bronx Tale
Outside Providence
Grease
Point Break
Back to School
The Wanderers
Hot Dog The Movie

A couple more recent ones would be:

Don't Look Up

I may have a DiCaprio problem.

ETA: I've probably watched The Big Short 5 times.
 
Major League is definitely winning my lifetime tally board.

Shawshank Redemption is probably close, but represents the movie version of a great song that you play to the point of exhaustion. I think I decided 10 years ago that I needed to put it aside and come back to it in 2035.
 
Top Gun: Maverick has been on a lot recently and I find myself watching. Probably hasn't reached the saturation point being a newer movie. But worth noting.
