There are just too many ... and I know that I'll keep thinking of movies and have to add to this.
For right now, I'm just trying to think of movies that I've watched a couple of times to catch the nuances, or movies that I just love so deeply that merely seeing a scene as I'm flipping through channels will cause me to stop and watch the movie from that point forward ...
