1. Disney's Robin Hood
As a kid I would watch this movie then immediately rewind it and watch it again. Sometimes I still do.
2. Dirty Dancing
My friend Layne and I would try to pause the movie at just the right moment to catch a glimpse of Patrick Swayze's booty. When I watched this movie as an adult, I realized #1: I had no business watching this as a child and #2: I had no earthly idea what was really going on in the movie.
3. Mean Girls
boo....you whore
4. Love Actually
Nice and awkward when watching with parents or someone you don't know quite so well, but something about this film makes me so happy.
5. X-Men
Really, the whole trilogy plus X-Men Origins:Wolverine. I could (and have) watched them all in a row.
I have more!
