Jay and Silent Bob strike back.
All the above I've seen at least 4-5 times and never felt enough.
That's not one I was expecting to see on anybody's list, interesting choice. I think it's very funny, and I've never even seen it high, which is sort of how it was intended to be watched I think. But even not, I've still always found it funny. I can't say the same for other "stoner movies" like Half Baked or the Cheech and Chong movies, hilarious when high but I can't get 5 minutes in otherwise.

BTW: I also recently liked "Bad Grandpa" - even though I dont think I would watch it again, as its funniest moments are based on wild vulgarity and an unsophisticated one.

I'm an unconventional person as far as my pattern of "consuming" art/music/culture is concerned. If I like something, I would see/listen to it numerous times while being totally indifferent to any type of recommendation about "new great things".

Breaking Bad. Well it is not really a movie but I saw every episode uninterrupted back to back.

LOL, you should see my movie collection. Whenever somebody looks at my shelf they're always "What the @#$%&? Why do you own Teen Wolf on Blu Ray? And why do you have Halloween III and not the others?". The "Who's Harry Crumb?" movie poster I have in the TV room gets some strange looks as well.

I bet I could provide them with the appropriate answer" you grew up in the 90s.
Myself, I come from the 80s, so Halloween I and even II are great, but the series loses muscle beginning with III. Also, I don't own a blu ray player, let alone have a copy of Teen Wolf--though Michael J Fox was OK in the Family Ties series, which you probably don't remember.

Yes, that's what I mean, you were born in the 80s, came of age in the 90s, so your working active memory extends to only the early 80s or so.
Myself, I was born in '66, so my earliest TV memories would be vastly different from yours, with TV shows like the original Dark Shadows, Batman, Gilligan's Island, Bewitched, and Scooby Doo and Josie and the Pussycats for cartoons on Saturday morning.
I stopped watching regular television in the mid-80s (and to this day have never owned a TV set--well, OK, once in an apartment I had in 2000-2001, but I refused to install cable so I occasionally watched 3 basic network channels, a couple of UHF stations, and PBS: I gave up on it in 2001 when the VHS set-up broke). Well before then, as my peers soaked up mainstream 80s junk like Journey, Foreigner, Loverboy, and--god help us--Asia, I listened instead to Beatles, Stones, Cream, Doors, Who, Kinks, and as you can tell from the list of films I posted above, my memory of current films gets really sketchy to the point of nonexistent after 1982.

The 70s were just such a great decade for cinema, Exorcist, The Godfather I and II, Taxi Driver, Star Wars, Jaws, Serpico, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (and 5 other Jack Nicholson movies probably), Alien, Saturday Night Fever, Grease, French Connection, Rocky...even Bond in the 70s is a guilty pleasure.
What else? Oh yeah, Performance and Ladies and Gentlemen!
