Default Five most watched films

Only 2 of these are in my fave five list.
Dunno if any other people have certain films they watch over and over (or did when they were younger). Here are mine (with no exageration on the viewings):

1. Youngblood (well over 50 times) - Hey I was young and a budding ice hockey player (and Cynthia Gibb had a cracking bod )
2. High School USA (over 30 times) - Terrible teen comedy with some great one liners
3. At Close Range (over 20 times) - Sean Penn, true story. Brilliant
4. About Last Night (over 20 times) - very enjoyable and Demi was foxy back then
5. Flash Gordon (over 15 times) - Great film, great music

Lost Boys
Weird Science
******
Robocop
South Park The Movie

These are films I watch again and again, not necessarily my favourite, just ones I seem to watch over and over

2. the shining, jack is ace in this film hehe
3. terminator1, the original and best

In on particular order

Where Eagles Dare - Corny as f**k, totally improbable, But Burton & Eastwood were in on the joke

Crossroads - soundtrack by Steve Vai & Ry Cooder, need I say more

Star Wars - The proper one, the first film I ever saw at the cinema

National Lampoons Animal House - The late, great John Belushi shows American Pie how it's done

The Italian Job - As if I need a reason
