My list is mostly a repeat of what's already been mentioned. Some that I didn't see anyone else mention:

The Island
The Incredibles
Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog
Edward Scissorhands
Nightmare Before Christmas

That's not even touching on all the anime I'll rewatch over and over again. :ugeek:

Mad Max
The Road Warrior (MM II)
Hell Is For Heroes--Steve McQueen at his most bad ass, and a great cast.
Master And Commander: Far Side Of The World

Many of my other favorites have already been listed. I rather like ST7: Generations, the only half decent odd-numbered Star Trek movie IMO. ST6: The Undiscovered Country, if it hasn't been listed yet.
