    TNT, TBS, or whoever go through periods where they always play the Back to the Future movies. And, I can't complain at all. I love that trilogy. Man, everytime I see Back to the Future on, I just can't change the channel. Those movies are timeless, and I'll never get tired of them.

    Other than that, though, yeah they do play the same movies too much. I rarely ever watch a movie on TV anyways because they'll just edit out all of the good stuff.

    Do you people not have cable, VCRs, or DVD players? I can't remember the last time I watched a movie on free TV. Commercials are teh suck.

    I hate the Shawshank Redemption.

    (yeah, I know I'm the only person on the planet who hates it.)

    Oh -- Shawshank is on right now

    Although, I liked it when they showed Dumb 'n Dummer all the time. I'de watch for a little bit. Or when Meet the Parents is on, you can watch a scene or two, very funny.

    Remember mateo, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies.

    While I wouldn't say that I hate it, I am not as fond of it as many here are. Very overrated IMO.

    HOW ABOUT YOU freakers DISCUSS MOVIES that come on REGULAR TV too much? All this is cable talk... what about us non-cable dudes?

    RoboCop is the only one that comes to mind now.

    UPN has a contract with Hunt for Red October to be aired at least 10 times a week.

    I must say, if you don't like The Shawshank Redemption, there is something severly wrong with you. I would seek psychiatric help, immediately.

    which reminds me of another movie that comes on TV a lot, American Pie. Of course, it's not quite as good with certain TV edits... like the little kid jumping around yelling "Freaks! Freaks! Freaks!" And "Mom I'd Like to Feel." Please. :rolleyes:

    That line was a complete ripoff from Full Metal Jacket.

    "Welcome to Shawshank. Where you can sucessfully break through the walls over the process of many years using just a rock hammer. During that time, we will conduct searches of your cell, but we'll never look for tunnels behind big conspicuous posters and we'll never make you switch cells with other inmates." :rolleyes:
