What movies suck you in?
 

I thought of this last night as I was watching The Buddy Holly Story at 2 AM. (And yes I have seen it before.)

What are the movies that always suck you in? Not necessarily your favorites of all time, but the ones that if you just see a snippet of them while channel surfing you HAVE to watch till the end, regardless of whether you have to study or get up early the next day.

Besides the aforementioned Buddy Holly Story, mine are Malcolm X, Gimme Shelter, and Taxi Driver.

Anytime I see My Cousin Vinny, A Few Good Men, or Ocean's Eleven on cable, I usually get sucked into watching the whole thing even though I own them all and have seen them countless times.

Nat'l Lampoon's Van wilder.

Die Another Day-one of the better James Bond Movies
S.W.A.T.
Bad Boys II
Malcom X

Grease
Dirty Dancing
The Breakfast Club

Good list DW!! I've seen all of those like 100 times each and no matter what, if I am channel surfing and run into one of them - i have to watch the whole thing!

And to think some people have done it ni a few months, I'm so slack.
