    If we're only counting ones that come on TV the movie I always watch has to be "The Breakfast Club." No matter how many times TNT plays TBC, I'll watch it everytime. I love that movie!

    Jaws. I have seen it a thousand timesand even own the special edition DVD. Regardless, it could come on any time day or night and be at any point of the movie and I always watch it till it ends.
