Scott / "Richr",

Have thoroughly enjoyed all the movies that you mentioned:

Jungle Book - I remember my wife's cousin (at the tender age of 4) do a great play by play re-enactment of the video in our living room)

Rob Roy - Is a movie that I definitely would not mind seeing again.

LOTM - Not enough can be said about it...

(Dumbo - well I might have watched the video at least once)

Vincent

: There are very few movies that I feel any great desire to see more than once.

: Of course there are those old classics that I'm alway happy to see when they come around on the tube. Old friends, some considerably older than myself, and that's saying something.

: But there are very, very few films I've had any desire to personally own. A few of the films I've purchased for my son I'm attached to (such as Disney's "Jungle Book"--which of course is also one of the oldies from my own younger years).

: But the ones I've outright purchased for myself can be counted on one hand, with perhaps a finger or two left over.

: One of them, of course, is LOTM. It was the inspiration for my biting the bullet and going out to get a DVD player. Thank goodness I have my son to work it (he is now well past the Jungle Book age).

: I can't believe I can watch this movie over and over again without tiring of it. It defies logic. But then perhaps some of you can relate to this.

: Another one of the handfull is Rob Roy.

: As with LOTM, Rob Roy didn't even register on my radar screen when it came out in the theaters. (I guess I was too busy watching the Jungle Book and Dumbo at the time.)

: And like LOTM, I came to it through internet boards. In the case of Rob Roy, boards dealing with swords and stuff that have a strong contingent of kilted folks. Or people who wish they were kilted.

: I don't seem to have the desire to watch it quite as frequently as LOTM, but it's much the same thing.

: Guess I'm just wondering if I have any company out there.

: (And if you haven't seen it, rent a copy. I don't think you'll be sorry. Unless your a Campbell.)
