None. I have watched many movies more than three times, but watching them repeatedly without getting bored? Nah…
Perhaps coming with age: I usually fall asleep these days when I put a movie on. Then again, there are (were) times for movies that really appeal(ed).
Shoud I say, I’ve seen them all, as the cineast I am? Often enough it feels llike it. But then and again, I still discover some gems, like from the Nordic Noir genre or documentaries. It rarely happens.
After a long talk, I give you three ones, everybody probably knows:
The Godfather
The Usual Suspects
Once Upon A Time In The West
- Psycho
- Vertigo
- Notorious
In terms of rewatchability, The Godfather, Jojo Rabbit, The Truman Show
- Facing The Giants
- Flywheel
- The Bad Guys
Fun Fact: In college, I watched the animated Disney Beauty and The Beast approximately 20 times to where I could quote most of the movie.

Once when I had the flu. Another when I had conjuctivitis I don’t know where picked up, and had to go to the doctor to get medicine for it. Both before I became adult BTW, while AIDS was a “favorite media topic”.
A couple months ago I bought a “vegetarian lasagna” in the supermarket.
It looked moldy, but I’m no expert on vegetarian stuff. It tasted horribly moldy, but again I’m no expert.
It was a struggle to eat, but I swore no sissy vegetarian meal was gonna best me.
Consumed it all and 15 minutes later i only made it to the kitchen sink before vomiting horizontally, and violently.
PS: I’m all for animal welfare and the ethics.
My most serious illness was scarlet fever, which I contracted when I was about 8 years old. The major symptoms were rash, a very painful sore throat and delirium (from the high fever). The delirium (which would wake me from my sleep during the illness) made me afraid to fall asleep, even after I had recovered from the illness, so I had to be prescribed sleeping pills. When I returned to school, my classmates kept their distance from me because the school had informed parents that a student had scarlet fever. Having been absent from school for a couple of weeks, I was obviously that student. I remember the girl in the desk next to mine sitting on the edge of her seat.
When my appendix self destructed in 2008.
As a child, it was a bout of something (my mom thinks it was Rheumatic fever) when I was about about 6 years old. I don’t remember much about it, but my mom said that the doctors were scared that I would die from it.
As an adult, a bout of pancreatitis I had about 10 years ago. I was in the hospital five days doped up on Zofran (an anti-nausea medicine) and Demerol (the good stuff). That was just about the worst pain I had ever experienced.
That one time when I almost revealed my medical history on a public forum.

I think the flu I and my ex-wife got at the same time…when our son was about two weeks old. That was not fun.
Now that answer have made multiple alphabet agencies sickest they have ever been!

By God’s grace, I haven’t been sick enough to be incapacitated and I’m truly thankful to Him.
Today’s Question of the Day:
What is a product or service you love so much that you’d happily be that company’s spokesperson?
I’m too camera shy to be a spokesperson, but there have been businesses I would recommend with little to no prompting.
EndeavoursOS yet they snubbed me when I offered my advertising writing skills to them as a volunteer…oh well…
