Bank holidays are notorious for the tv channels to show the most god awful zillionth time repeats of movies that we all now the script backwards for.

Which ones do you loathe seeing being spun out once again..... and on the other hand, which ones do you love seeing time and time again?


Shawshank Redemption - love it but am getting to the point I need to see a few years break from it.

ET: only ever watch it for the bit where he's flying home again.

Posiedon Adventure / Ghostbusters / Texas Chainsaw Massacre etc : all that deserve is an almighty groan and a few of these :rolleyes::rolleyes:

I agree - same with all the Bruce Willis Armageddon type movies - Ghost, 6th Sense - great the first 17 times around ......

How could I miss out them...... ! :shocked:

All the Star Trek ones, the Superman ones.... they go on my hit list as well.

The proverbial Movie Room 101.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is always on. They only ever seem to show this one too, never any of the other ones.

HP and the Half Blood Prince was on the other day........ mind you that wasn't at bank holiday.

For some reason I really enjoy the HP movies. Kid at heart.

Think ITV must buy the license to a film for say a year or so/buy it to show so many times, put it on ITV, then ITV2, then ITV3, then ITV4 over a short space of time

I remember a while back when they pretty much aired a Mummy film every week.

You're right enough.... I've lost count of the times I've seen I Robot and FSM being advertised, shown and reshown in the past months.

Few others that I can't recall too - and no doubt, I'll spot them when I turn the box on later!

Nat
I Told Everyone on a Thread on the TV Section
as soon as Sky set up a Exclusive deal with ITV

ITV2/3 and 4 are all HD.

Sky has so many Movies in HD
before they are out on BluRay
and many are shown on the new ITV2HD
ITV3HD and ITV4HD only on SkyHD

MIB is one that I never tire of watching - there's always something you've missed before - and both Will and Tommy LJ are just delicious. TLJ's voice just melts me

You like all your mod cons Arista. Half the time it goes over my head as I'm not really that into all the latest tech stuff. Boring mare that I am.

Do you still love Tesco though -THAT is the question. !!! tee hee....
