I am sitting here with beer and pizza watching Lonesome Dove. I just never get tired of this series. I can't wait to watch it with my grandkids someday and tell them "this is how men act". Bonanza, the old spaghetti Westerns, the old ww2 and Vietnam movies, they just don't make films like these anymore. Then again its hard to fill the boots left behind by the actors when you have guys like mark wahlburg and Robert downy Jr leading the roles.
TV shows/movies you never get tired of.
- Thread starter Smcarroll
- Start date
Outlaw Josey Wales is all my all time and I never get sick of it. Just had a baby girl this week and named her Josie since my last name is Wells. Close enough.
Movies:
Top Gun - classic
Gattaca - Favorite movie
Most of the Disney/Pixar flicks (Monsters Inc, WALL-E, etc.)
Die Hard
Terminator 2
TV:
Firefly
Battlestar Galactica (New one)
And for ongoing new stuff: MotoGP - whenever I can catch a race, it's great, but I haven't had the subscription lately so I haven't been watching for some time.
I usually run through a couple of these every few months - great for when nothing is on and just want to become a vegetable.

+1 on lonesome dove. Also, rocky 1, 2, and 4. The natural, bull Durham, and since I have a 7 year old, I will always stop at sponge bob whether he is in the room or not. I can't explain it.
Lonesome Dove, Pulp Fiction, Open Range, Futurama, Band of Brothers, Platoon, Forest Gump and Lonesome Dove. I had to mention that one twice, just because.
You guys have great taste.
I just started watching Starsky and Hutch again. It's really held up well.

The good, the bad and the ugly, Hang em high. The green berets. Sargeant York. Death wish., platoon, October sky . Hoosiers, No way out. And major league are a few of my favorites. Also Jaws. High plains drifter, and a couple holiday movies, A Christmas story, and Christmas vacation.

Godfather series; Casablanca; Anything else with Bogart; Lonesome Dove. (Bought it on dvd after my vhs wore out);; Tora, Tora, Tora; Zodiac; Jaws and a bunch more. The classics are what I have playing when prepping cases or doing light reading. Never tire of them.
Have a lot of John Wayne movies. " The Searchers" will never be old hat in my home.

I loved the Shark TV series. Lawrence of Arabia is my all time favorite movie along with ALL the Eastwood offerings.
Lonesome Dove is a list topper for me as well(specifically the original w/Duval, Jones, etc.)! Also Braveheart, Tombstone, and Band of Bros. just never get old. Full Metal Jacket is right up there, Platoon too, and Outlaw Josey Wales remains a favorite since I first saw it back in the 70's. Dirty Harry has to be mentionedand Bram Stoker's Dracula...ah, there's quite a few I'm probably overlooking too.
As for TV...not much a fan of anything made after the mid 80's at best! I'd rather watch All In The Family re-runs than 99% of what is normally on today!

Quigley Down Under, We Were Soldiers, Platoon, Apocalypse Redoux, Braveheart, The Postman, Last of the Mohicans, Gangs of New York, almost any James Bond movie-Daniel Craig and Sean Connery the best, Dances With Wolves, most of the Mission Impossibles.
Booo get out of my threat. The walking dead is awful. No true gun person could ever sit through that crap.

Wife and I are scifi fans so we watch all the different Star Trek series, followed by Star Gate and the spin offs and the newer Battlestar Galactica and Caprica... throw in a few scifi motion pictures and repeat.
Personal watch list: Winter/Spring I will watch band of brothers and Saving Private Ryan, now that Lone Survivor is out that will be on schedule for July and in the Fall I pull out my copy of Blackhawk Down and We Were Soldiers... I'll watch Forrest Gump a couple times a year along and Dances with Wolves.
Every few months I will pull out my Rifle's Only collection for review and Caylen Wojcik's DVD from Magpul's precision rifle.

I just finished season 2 of longmire. Pretty good show, he is a little bit of a assbackwards fudd but then that's the premise right?
Quigley down under is amongst my favorites. I think my wife has actually stolen my DVD.
