Daily writing prompt
What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times?

Now that would be a list since I’m a creature of habit, but let’s give it a try:

  • Star Trek – TOS – Every stinking episode at least thirty times (probably more like a hundred).
  • Star Trek – TNG-maybe not as much but certainly more than five times.
  • Frasier – I got the lines down better than the whole cast.
  • Golden Girls – Tell me where to send my ManCard so I can turn it in.
  • MASH – I wish I’d created it!
  • Reba – What can I say. It’s fun.
  • The Planets – PBS Series – Awesome.

Coming up fast, Last Man Standing, Expedition Unknown, and Drain the Oceans.

Now let’s talk movies:

  • 2001: A Space Odyssey – It still looks incredible
  • Battle: Los Angeles – Take the phone off the hook, throw the dog out, and make sure to use the bathroom before you watch it. I think it’s great.
  • Star Trek – Search for Spock – One of the most underrated of the series.
  • Star Trek – Wrath of Kahn – Kirk gets trashed. An awesome adventure
  • Star Trek – The Voyage Home – Trek at it’s best
  • Star Wars – Every single movie.
  • Twister and Twisters. – My wife and I are storm chasers from way back. We love them.
  • Heartbreak Ridge – Vintage Clint Eastwood. I love this movie.
  • Space Cowboys – The characters are the story here.
  • Second Hand Lions – A movie very few people admit to having seen. An incredible story of the influence of men on the growth on a child.
  • An Unfinished Life – Another one almost no one has heard of. Robert Redford, J Lo, Morgan Freeman. An awesome tale of forgiveness and family. How can you go wrong. Watch it.
  • The Searchers – the Duke at his best.
  • And of course, The Cowboys – What can I say. EPIC!

Add to the list a whole bunch of others including The Outlaw Josey Wells, The Last Starfighter, Iron Eagle, both Top Gun movies, Seredipity, Little Big Man, and my usual Christmas movies.

Hmmm. Maybe I don’t need to turn in my ManCard after all.
