I've always said a favorite film (or song) must stand the test of time. That 20 or 30 years later, it will invoke the same passion despite multiple viewings. So here's the rundown:

Its A Wonderful Life - Frank Capra/Jimmy Stewart masterpiece.
The Good, the Bad, the Ugly - Eastwood, Leone, Morricone. It don't get no better.
Star Wars (the original) - Saw in this theater over 50 times as a kid. Its still phenomenal 30 years later.
Jaws - Scared the crap out of me in 1975 and it still demands respect years later.
Joe vs. the Volcano - This one surprises folks. First and fairly unknown of the Hanks/Ryan rom-com trilogy.
Rocky - The backstory of this film is as inspiring as the film itself. Bravo Stallone.
Grease - A musical? Yeah, this was one of my favs in the 70s and its still a great ride.
St. Elmos Fire - The 80's were thee decade!
The Great Escape - Powerful, all-star cast.
Shadow of A Doubt - Hitchock's favorite as is mine. Sinister storyline.

[Tosh]

All non-KF/Samurai which would take the majority of the list;)


Western - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

Horror - Evil Dead 2, The Exorcist, The Shining

Comedy - Pet Detective (1 and 2), Super Troopers, Dumb and Dumber, Clerks

Sword - Conan the B, Sword and the Scorcerer, LOTR (all 3, but I think the last one fell a bit short)

Docs - The Endless Summer 1 and 2
