The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005) - Despite reading the book I just can't get tired of this movie. I won't lie to you, I love the way the movie was represented. The minimalistic style of the guide itself, light-hearted comedy, and the awesome CG. For me at least, it really is like having your head smash with a lemon wrapped around a gold brick.
Back to the Future I~III - It might be due to my bias towards time-traveling stories. But when you hear five or more memorable catch phrases you know you'll see it again.
Spaceballs - One of the first movies I can remember and still it never grows old. I think I've watched it enough times to be able to recite a good chunk of the movie (at least all the funny scenes.)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

"Dumbing it down" is the wrong term, but it's certainly a different kind of humor meant to appeal to a wider audience. If you liked the book, I'd recommend the BBC mini-series that's now on DVD in place of this.
You know, ironically the movie previews convinced me to read the book =p. I knew about the book long before I heard of any movie on it. I just never took interest in it until I heard the word movie attached to it. But if its one thing I learned when watching book-to-movie adaptations is to not compare the two, at all. It only gives me excuses to hate one over another.

Though I didn't know about the whole movie production thing. You're saying Douglas Adam would kill the guy that approved this movie without his say? Haha. Oh well, thanks for the recommendation, I'll look for the mini-series on my next movie hunt!

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I think I might find it at my local library though, haven't checked yet.
Oh geez, I forgot about What Dreams May Come and I watch it at least every few months too. I thought it was a all around awesome film despite what people say about it, I always did like those religious thought provoking movies.

Oh yeah that movie is kinda easy to find if you don't mind purchasing it. I know I saw a copy at my local walmart sitting in the 5 dollar bin at one point. Maybe I should send it to you =p.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
