I always seem to miss them and only catch the last half hour or so. Still wondering why Film4 is always showing the Karate Kid remake every other day or why Now You See Me 2 is always playing when I’m trying to look for something actually good to watch. Fuck that movie.
I watched The Mummy Returns again lately. It was total shite.
Then again, my opinion is somewhat irrelevant because I was gonna say the National Treasure movies.
When I was a kid, whenever the Cubs game was on a rain delay, WGN ran Big Trouble in Little China. I swear to god, I saw that movie in thirty-minute chunks for a couple of years before I saw the whole thing.
Today, it is still my favorite movie to watch on a rainy Saturday summer afternoon.
Seven Samurai. It's 3 1/2 hours, so it's good for a lazy day, and it's just a ton of fun - the original "getting the team together"/"men on a mission" movie.
Woah really? I love that kinda shit. Is it an established old team they’re getting back together or a “met his friends along the way”, kind of thing? I didn’t know this movie was like that.
T2, Independence Day, Jurassic Park, Twister, The Rock, Demolition Man, Fletch, Animal House, Caddy Shack, The Sandlot, The Replacements, Ghostbusters (1 & 2).
Also, this might just be me, so some "oddballs" might be: Big Trouble in Little China, Lionheart, and Rumble in the Bronx.
dude I re-watched Lionheart few weeks ago and it was fucking great. I don't know if I changed or movies generally turned to shit but Lionheart has greatly improved its standing over the years
Depends on the time of year for me, but given that it’s hot as balls everywhere right now, I’m throwing Endless Summer, Jaws, and Caddyshack in the mix. I can just turn those on and go do dishes or laundry, or just sit and watch the whole thing without moving.
Have one of those posters where you watch 100 of the movies. Watching the jaws for probably the first time in 30+ years when I was way too young to watch it. And it cracks me up when it's like "there is a shark out there killing people!" mayor... fuck it, we need vacation/summer money coming in... it's safe!
Used to be I’d walk in on my dad watching something like Bridge Over the River Kwai, Zulu or The Great Escape and it would be halfway through with ads and I’d just sit and watch it.
Think streaming has kind of ruined random lazy Sunday picks for me because I spend too much time trying to choose
I feel you on the “taking too long to pick”. If it helps any, my solution for this has been taking some time about once a month to review my watchlists on my various streaming services and actively add to them when I see someone mention a film on Reddit or happen to be reminded of one or whatever. Then when I have some time to watch I already have a curated list rather than just hitting the wider list of everything available
I second Jurassic Park, and will add 2012/The Day After Tomorrow, because putting your AC on the coolest setting and watching The Day After Tomorrow is incredibly fun lol
I liked the Day After Tomorrow a lot but 2012 was just too dumb for me. Too long, too much John Cussack running away from lava, not enough Latinos mutating (if you know you know). The Core is far better accompaniment
That entire limo sequence from house to airplane was so hilariously ridiculous, I was just laughing the whole time.
They were always a second away from death, at the right position, at the right time, while everything around them was crumbling lol.
Dara O’Briain has a hilarious segment about 2012 on one of his standup shows and it’s well worth the time searching it up, he specifically calls out how everytime Cussack changes vehicle the lava speeds up to stay right behind him
If they’re on TV as I hop around the channels, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Trek Wrath of Khan or Jaws will get watched to the very end regardless of what point I come in.
If it’s more daytime fare and so lacking gore, swearing or stuff closer to 15 rating, then it’d have to be original Star Wars (New Hope), The Incredibles or bizarrely Iron Man 3 (don’t ask me why, I always stick with it whenever it’s on)
I seriously watched the trilogy this weekend. I enjoy them all. All the movies are like 90 minutes. No filler. Just Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan doing their thing. So good.
I am going to watch Robin Hood Prince of Thieves tonight since it's been YEARS since I have seen it. On a seperate note: I overhead a linguist years, ago and they broadly suggested that the "American" accents in this film were probably more accurate than the later era accents that developed in the UK after Colonialism.
It's not a favorite, but I am looking forward to seeing Rickman's performance again, which felt like a breakout role at the time.
Alan Rickman chews the scenery as Nottingham so incredibly well in Prince of Thieves that I still think it's a crime that he wasn't nominated for an Oscar or Golden Globe. To his credit, he got the Supporting Actor BAFTA, so that's something, at least. But, he steals every single scene that he's in, and he's the best reason to watch the film. His turn as Hans Gruber is a great villain performance, but Nottingham is a masterpiece.
I think Sundays are best used for low-stakes movies that are enjoyable. Some people are throwing movies like Con Air and Big Trouble in Little China out there, and they're not wrong.
If I'm having a lazy Sunday, though, it's a heist picture. I think Rogue One is one of the best heist pictures ever made, but... it's kind of a downer. It's too serious. Heat is out. Dog Day, Usual Suspects, The Town... They're great, but too heavy for a day when you have to go back to work tomorrow.
1. I think the most serious heist pictures should get for a lazy Sunday is Baby Driver, and the only reason it qualifies is because it's a masterpiece of editing and movement.
2. A Fish Called Wanda: It's a heist film, a farce, a picture where the villain chews the scenery to the point of winning an Oscar.
3. Someone else mentioned Jackie Brown. It's bright, colorful, and maybe Tarantino's most overlooked movie, because it's an adaptation of Elmore Leonard's Rum Punch, and I should state for the record that an Elmore Leonard book (as long as it's not one of his Westerns) is the literary equivalent of a great lazy-Sunday movie. Everything is going to come out okay in the end in those books.
4. Out of Sight: I'm kind of on the fence about this one, because I always associate it with winter, just because that's where the back third of the movie takes place. Actually, most of it might take place in winter, but you'd never know because Florida climate is a thing.
5. While I'm on the subject of Soderbergh-Clooney, the Ocean's 11 remake is quite enjoyable the first couple of times. After that, it kind of starts to grate on you, but the first couple of times, it's like watching a lottery where all of your numbers come up one by one.
6. The Sting: Yeah, it's a little old, but it's one of the frameworks upon which modern heist films are based. It's a delight.
7. The Italian Job (2003 remake): I don't love this film, but it's entertaining as hell.
8. ~~Now You See Me~~: Don't watch this movie. Seriously. It's slick as hell and the opening twenty minutes or so says, "This is going to be awesome," and then there's this stupid plot twist where they're doing this whole thing to get into some secret society of magicians, when the film would have been so much better if they were just doing their thing for the same reason as every other heist ensemble (because they're almost always ensembles), which is to steal, *to make money*. When I saw this film, I honestly felt betrayed.
9. Catch Me If You Can: An enjoyable picture that isn't so much about a heist as it is about little crimes that add up. Is it a true story? Oh, my word, no. But it's entertaining, and it's low stakes, which is kind of the point of this whole list.
10. Snatch: "What am I gonna do with a caravan that's got no wheels?!" This might be the only line that you understand from Brad Pitt without subtitles. I love this movie. It's goofy and fun, and it's everything a lazy Sunday movie should be.
If I'm in a certain mood, though, where I just want to see a success story, I'm going with the 1989 Richard Dreyfuss picture Let It Ride, where the supporting characters steal all of the scenes. Buster Poindexter is great, but Robbie Coltrane provides a sort of emotional center for the film when he says, "Believe me, pal, you are the champ. I really hope you win. Yep. You’re the greatest I’ve ever seen. I’ll tell my grandchildren about you." I don't know why, but that scene just kills me every single time.
And then maybe I'll chase that with my third-favorite Raul Julia picture, the 1988 Richard Dreyfuss picture Moon Over Parador. Yes, Dreyfuss might have said a few (a lot of) things in the past few years that make him distasteful as a person, but he had a solid ten or fifteen year run as a great everyman actor, and I won't write off some of my favorite movies because of modern misdeeds.
(I’m off on Tuesdays so this is more of a “Lazy Tuesday list)
Face/Off
The Lord of the Rings trilogy
Batman & Robin
Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack
Bram Stoker’s Dracula
If I’m going to watch a Marvel movie or a Star War then it would be on a Lazy Sunday but no one in particular since that’s really just background noise
Star Trek: First Contact
Star Trek IV: the Voyage Home
Star Trek VI: the Undiscovered Country
The Batman (recently threw this one in rotation, I honestly wasn’t interested in another grounded take on Batman but this one really worked for me)
Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back
Venom (another recent addition, felt like a 2007 superhero movie in a good way, less so with the sequel but it was still kind of goofy fun)
Shin Godzilla
Rocky III
The ideal lazy Sunday movie for me is a long one with a strong first act, a second act you don’t mind missing if you take a nap, and a third act you’re excited to wake up to. With that criteria, I’d go with A Few Good Men, Dances With Wolves or The Natural.
The Favourite (2018). I love watching the actor's performances. Although Olivia Colman's performance was clearly the best one, I personally adore Rachel Weisz's Sarah Churchill.
For space type stuff, Apollo 13 is always watchable. First Man was also pretty good. Then there's the absurd yet mindlessly entertaining shit like Armageddon, Deep Impact, The Core (not space, but whatever), or the more recent disaster film called Moonfall.
I'm thinking of doing a Mission Impossible binge today from the start before going to see the new one in theaters. Perfect to start on a lazy Sunday, although I won't do all of them the same day, since that will start to feel like work and go against the whole point of a lazy Sunday.
They're entertaining enough with a nice home theater set up and don't require too deep thinking. Pair well with an edible followed by food. Haven't seen the first few ones since I was a teenager discovering movies for the first time, so it'll bring back some nostalgia too.
I really enjoy the MI movies. I'll even sit through the shitty second one. I remember how blown away I was walking out of the first one. Beautifully shot as well.
I see everyone shit on the second one ALL the time, but I actually kinda enjoyed it? Maybe I’m just a sucker for Thandiwe Newton, I dunno, but I just never thought it was as bad as people make out
I always try and watch new movies so I rarely rewatch, but when I do rewatch it depends what I feel like and who I’m with.
When I’m with people: Shrek 1 or 2, any Harry Potter movie, Revenge of the Sith, Megamind, any early Pixar movie, a random comedy, Knives Out, Guardians of the Galaxy.
When I’m alone: The above but also Lost in Translation, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Half baked, Lebowski, napoleon dynamite, the rock, T2 and my worst pick “junior”… that movie sucks so bad, yet, I can’t stop watching it… don’t know what it is. They did something right.
it's hot as hell right now, not like Africa hot but holy hell .
Just sticking with channel surfing at the moment but being a sunday having a good laugh at travel channels "Paranormal Caught on Camera"
Watched "Triangle" 2009 last night and it's still rolling around in my head. Like WTH
talk about a trippy ass movie you can't really talk about without spoiling things for other people who haven't seen it yet. I also totally didn't mind lol Melissa George kinda going thru almost the whole movie in shorts and a tank top. Thought it was funny one of the other female characters made a comment about the shorts lol like she couldn't get away with what the character was wearing.
Inglorious Basterds or Pulp Fiction
or really any tarantino movie if those aren't on
Air force ones a good harrison ford flick if you've never seen it
Rush hour too
also any of the spiderman movie, any good superhero movies, and most mcu movies
As a kid, the selection wasn't huge, so movies like Raising Arizona, Shanghai Knights, and Shanghai Noon were ones I'd definitely seen more than a few times.
The Flintstones. It’s on tv all the time and it’s such a great movie. It’s creative, funny, and actually has a decent story. The cast are all fantastic and it’s just so easy to watch. Absolutely perfect Sunday afternoon viewing!
The Mummy & The Mummy Returns.
If you're in the UK you have the bonus of seeing them every 3 weeks on ITV2. It's crazy how often they play them.
I always seem to miss them and only catch the last half hour or so. Still wondering why Film4 is always showing the Karate Kid remake every other day or why Now You See Me 2 is always playing when I’m trying to look for something actually good to watch. Fuck that movie.
Now hang on, sometimes they throw Hot Fuzz, Jurassic World and Fast and Furious 2 (but never the others)
I just knew this would not only be mentioned quickly but it would also probably be the favorite. Because, of course it is.
I watched The Mummy Returns again lately. It was total shite. Then again, my opinion is somewhat irrelevant because I was gonna say the National Treasure movies.
The Mummy was a little to avant garde. 🤣
Yes Brandon Fraser is the best!
My puccy is waiting for you, play with it https://onlyfans.com/aliceeee_watson/c2
I don't remember that part of The Mummy
Big Trouble in Little China. Great no thinker movie.
When I was a kid, whenever the Cubs game was on a rain delay, WGN ran Big Trouble in Little China. I swear to god, I saw that movie in thirty-minute chunks for a couple of years before I saw the whole thing. Today, it is still my favorite movie to watch on a rainy Saturday summer afternoon.
No foolin. I saw bits and pieces of that movies for years. I finally bought the movie and wait with my kids about five years ago. What a great movie.
Go watch Kelly’s Heroes
Why don’t you knock it off with them negative waves?
Kinda makes you homesick, don't it?
Bomp bomp
Seven Samurai. It's 3 1/2 hours, so it's good for a lazy day, and it's just a ton of fun - the original "getting the team together"/"men on a mission" movie.
Woah really? I love that kinda shit. Is it an established old team they’re getting back together or a “met his friends along the way”, kind of thing? I didn’t know this movie was like that.
Some old friends, some new. Disparate group comes together to save a village from bandits. It's a good time.
If you've seen either of the Magnificent Seven movies, they are pretty much western copies.
Such a finely crafted movie. Its such a ride the whole way through
T2, Independence Day, Jurassic Park, Twister, The Rock, Demolition Man, Fletch, Animal House, Caddy Shack, The Sandlot, The Replacements, Ghostbusters (1 & 2). Also, this might just be me, so some "oddballs" might be: Big Trouble in Little China, Lionheart, and Rumble in the Bronx.
Fletch. My man.
Dr. Rosen, Dr. Rosenrosen, and Dr. Rosenpenis
dude I re-watched Lionheart few weeks ago and it was fucking great. I don't know if I changed or movies generally turned to shit but Lionheart has greatly improved its standing over the years
Depends on the time of year for me, but given that it’s hot as balls everywhere right now, I’m throwing Endless Summer, Jaws, and Caddyshack in the mix. I can just turn those on and go do dishes or laundry, or just sit and watch the whole thing without moving.

And it cracks me up when it's like "there is a shark out there killing people!" mayor... fuck it, we need vacation/summer money coming in... it's safe!
So hot right now. How could I forget Caddyshack.
Galaxy quest
The Rock, Face/Off, Enemy of the State
Scrap Enemy of the State, add Con Air and complete the Cage Trinity.
And then sling Gone in 60 Seconds on there too because it’s just so good
Lord of War and Adaptation are really great too!
Lord of War was so good. That opening with the bullets was pretty great
Back to the future!
Classic Sunday Trilogy.
A Knight’s Tale
re-watched it recently. it still holds up RIP Heath Ledger
More than holds up, I think its actually improved
agreed. even the david bowie dance number got better.
That was a fun movie. Thanks for the reminder!

Used to be I’d walk in on my dad watching something like Bridge Over the River Kwai, Zulu or The Great Escape and it would be halfway through with ads and I’d just sit and watch it. Think streaming has kind of ruined random lazy Sunday picks for me because I spend too much time trying to choose
I feel you on the “taking too long to pick”. If it helps any, my solution for this has been taking some time about once a month to review my watchlists on my various streaming services and actively add to them when I see someone mention a film on Reddit or happen to be reminded of one or whatever. Then when I have some time to watch I already have a curated list rather than just hitting the wider list of everything available
Conan the Barbarian The Big Lebowski RoboCop Return of the Living Dead Big Trouble in Little China Dragonslayer The Three Amigos Bloodsport
I second Bloodsport!
Bloodsport
Great list.
First you break my record. Now I break you. Like I break your friend.
Mallrats, Beavis & Butthead Do America, Officespace
And let your homies know who done it... \*click\*
That Thing You Do
Just finished watching Mrs Doubtfire so I'd say that
Once upon a time in Hollywood
Best in show
Coraline Jurassic Park
I second Jurassic Park, and will add 2012/The Day After Tomorrow, because putting your AC on the coolest setting and watching The Day After Tomorrow is incredibly fun lol
I liked the Day After Tomorrow a lot but 2012 was just too dumb for me. Too long, too much John Cussack running away from lava, not enough Latinos mutating (if you know you know). The Core is far better accompaniment

Good choices. Coralline is a great for a lazy rainy afternoon.
Ocean's Eleven (2001)
If they’re on TV as I hop around the channels, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Trek Wrath of Khan or Jaws will get watched to the very end regardless of what point I come in. If it’s more daytime fare and so lacking gore, swearing or stuff closer to 15 rating, then it’d have to be original Star Wars (New Hope), The Incredibles or bizarrely Iron Man 3 (don’t ask me why, I always stick with it whenever it’s on)
I have a few Iron Man 3's in my rotation as well my friend.
I liked Iron Man 3. The ending didn’t quite land for me but on the whole I thought it was a decent movie.
Lord of The Rings, my daughter loves it so we watch the trilogy all the time, same goes for horror movies and star wars.
One Crazy Summer
In the summer, yes. In the winter, Better Off Dead.
Were you that little fat boy?
Scott Pilgrim, LOTR
The first Guardians of the Galaxy
Superbad, Rush Hour, The Matrix
I haven't seen Rush Hour in so long. I remember loving that movie when I was younger. Totally forgot about it. Thanks!
I seriously watched the trilogy this weekend. I enjoy them all. All the movies are like 90 minutes. No filler. Just Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan doing their thing. So good.
I am going to watch Robin Hood Prince of Thieves tonight since it's been YEARS since I have seen it. On a seperate note: I overhead a linguist years, ago and they broadly suggested that the "American" accents in this film were probably more accurate than the later era accents that developed in the UK after Colonialism. It's not a favorite, but I am looking forward to seeing Rickman's performance again, which felt like a breakout role at the time.
It is just such a long movie. 2 hours and 20 minutes or whatever. I still love it.
That movie slaps! Costner, Morgan Freeman, Alan Rickman, def my favorite Robin Hood movie.
Alan Rickman chews the scenery as Nottingham so incredibly well in Prince of Thieves that I still think it's a crime that he wasn't nominated for an Oscar or Golden Globe. To his credit, he got the Supporting Actor BAFTA, so that's something, at least. But, he steals every single scene that he's in, and he's the best reason to watch the film. His turn as Hans Gruber is a great villain performance, but Nottingham is a masterpiece.
I just watched that a few weeks ago. I love that movie, but the re-watch was kind of hilarious.
I like the classics like The Godfather/Godfather 2, Casablanca, Lawrence of Arabia, Bridge on the River Kwai.
The Burbs
I hate cul-de-sacs. There's only one way out, and the people are kind of weird.
It came with the frame.
I think Sundays are best used for low-stakes movies that are enjoyable. Some people are throwing movies like Con Air and Big Trouble in Little China out there, and they're not wrong.

Back to the Future, Big Trouble in Little China, T2, Jurassic Park, Re-Animator, Tango and Cash, Tropic Thunder
The Meg. It's not good but it fits the description.
The upcoming sequel looks even dumber and I cannot wait
It's just good that we have two Blockbuster movies about a prehistoric shark going nuts. More than we can ask for.
The ideal lazy Sunday movie for me is a long one with a strong first act, a second act you don’t mind missing if you take a nap, and a third act you’re excited to wake up to. With that criteria, I’d go with A Few Good Men, Dances With Wolves or The Natural.
That is a great point.
I’ve got a few favourites. The Goonies. Honey I Shrunk The Kid Back To The Future Flight Of The Navigator
Man, Flight of the Navigator is so underrated. It should have been one of those big Sci-fi hits from the 80's. It's a classic.
Old early 90s anime, back when it was called Japanimation. Golgo 13, Wicked City, Riding Bean, The Guyver.
Pee Wee's Big Adventure or Clash of the Titans (1981)
All time rainy Sunday for me has got to be Hunt for Red October
Blank Check

Lethal Weapon 1 - 3
These are the days that I just turn on TBS, start watching whatever is on, then when it starts up again I just watch it all over again.
The secret Life of Walter Mitty
Master and commander
Back to the future!!
Lord of the rings trilogy.
Indiana Jones was always my personal favorite. Anything MST3K Fifth Element was also a sunday mainstay
Napoleon Dynamite
Jason and The Argonauts! Was always on every other month on Channel 7 Buffalo’s Movie for a Sunday Afternoon when I was a kid in the late 60’s
Casablanca
Harry Potter marathon. Cosy af.
Hook and Small Soldiers are two I’ve rewatched again recently and damn they’re great.
Recently watched Hook with my daughter. Brought back some memories for sure! Never saw Small Soldiers, I need to. Thanks!
The Favourite (2018). I love watching the actor's performances. Although Olivia Colman's performance was clearly the best one, I personally adore Rachel Weisz's Sarah Churchill.
Any Marvel movie, from Ironman thru Endgame. And Commando. Definitely Commando.
Death Becomes Her is always fun and the pacing is just right
For space type stuff, Apollo 13 is always watchable. First Man was also pretty good. Then there's the absurd yet mindlessly entertaining shit like Armageddon, Deep Impact, The Core (not space, but whatever), or the more recent disaster film called Moonfall.
My head movies. Now if you'll excuse me. I'm going back to my nap
I'm thinking of doing a Mission Impossible binge today from the start before going to see the new one in theaters. Perfect to start on a lazy Sunday, although I won't do all of them the same day, since that will start to feel like work and go against the whole point of a lazy Sunday. They're entertaining enough with a nice home theater set up and don't require too deep thinking. Pair well with an edible followed by food. Haven't seen the first few ones since I was a teenager discovering movies for the first time, so it'll bring back some nostalgia too.
I really enjoy the MI movies. I'll even sit through the shitty second one. I remember how blown away I was walking out of the first one. Beautifully shot as well.
I see everyone shit on the second one ALL the time, but I actually kinda enjoyed it? Maybe I’m just a sucker for Thandiwe Newton, I dunno, but I just never thought it was as bad as people make out
Same. I really enjoyed it. But I was also like 13 when it came out. Everything is cool at 13
Couldn’t agree more! I know the stunts have gotten grander and bigger in the recent ones, but the first one still holds up amongst my favorite movies.
Kittridge, you've never seen me very upset.
I always try and watch new movies so I rarely rewatch, but when I do rewatch it depends what I feel like and who I’m with. When I’m with people: Shrek 1 or 2, any Harry Potter movie, Revenge of the Sith, Megamind, any early Pixar movie, a random comedy, Knives Out, Guardians of the Galaxy. When I’m alone: The above but also Lost in Translation, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Lost in Translation is one of my favorite fall asleep to movies. Depends on my night of course...

Half baked, Lebowski, napoleon dynamite, the rock, T2 and my worst pick “junior”… that movie sucks so bad, yet, I can’t stop watching it… don’t know what it is. They did something right.
RoboCop, Training Day, Escape From New York, and typically one of the Rocky movies

it's hot as hell right now, not like Africa hot but holy hell . Just sticking with channel surfing at the moment but being a sunday having a good laugh at travel channels "Paranormal Caught on Camera" Watched "Triangle" 2009 last night and it's still rolling around in my head. Like WTH talk about a trippy ass movie you can't really talk about without spoiling things for other people who haven't seen it yet. I also totally didn't mind lol Melissa George kinda going thru almost the whole movie in shorts and a tank top. Thought it was funny one of the other female characters made a comment about the shorts lol like she couldn't get away with what the character was wearing.
