I don't think I have a Drop Everything movie, but every time Band of Brothers is playing I forget what I was doing for hours, and if it ends, I pop in the dvds and watch from the beginning.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I liked Star Trek, but I don't really like Star Trek. It felt more like Star Wars, which I like more. So.
It did strike me as odd that Star Trek had been remade as an action-adventure hero quest, while the Star Wars prequels were talky stories about diplomacy and trade routes.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Weird Science? Tuff Turf. Oh, the one with the surfer exiled to Colorado, where Seth Green did the quick-change trying on outfits. There was a...roller-blading slalom race? Ringin' any bells?
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (also Trancers, but that's not high school). Does Real Genuis qualify?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Does Real Genuis qualify?
No! It's a college movie.

X-Men FC was the first movie I have seen in the theatre in an age. I really enjoyed it...excepting the tragic miscasting mentioned above...and the lack of after credit goody.
Seriously, two thirds of the audience sat and waited. There was much lamentation.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Somebody mentioned Labyrinth and I don't think I've ever watched it all the way through so I put it on and whose name do I see? Kevin Clash! (He's Elmo).

Coal Miner's Daughter, although that one's never on anymore.
Do you not have the TV Guide channel? Every time I switch to that on a weekend Sissy Spacek and Tommy Lee Jones are embroiled in drama about something.
Aliens is probably my top drop everything movie.

Because books.
Really?! Maybe I do, I have no idea. The new Verizon lineup we have here still confuses me.
I have other drop everything movies, I know, but those were the first two I could think of that are on all the time. If I catch Gone With the Wind I'll generally watch at least part of it, I know.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
Drop Everything Movies: High Plains Drifter, which really isn't a good movie, and Rock & Roll High School, which is very satisfying.
