I watch total recall and predator every time they're on. I sat down for a bite to eat the other night and terminator was on. I watched the whole thing for probably the 20th time and still loved it.

All the early Mel Brooks' films - adolescent bloke humour and very very funny (Young Frankenstein especially).

Many of my favourites mentioned, but I would add;

To Live and Die in LA (cops and robbers 1980's stylee)

Defence of the Realm (UK political thriller)

Silverado (100% blokes western with a huge cast of A list stars, written by the same guy that did Indiana Jones)

The Right Stuff (based on the Mercury space mission)

The Firm (UK footie drama with Gary Oldman)

...plus many others!
