If you could erase the memory of a movie for the sheer joy of seeing it again for the first time, what movie would it be?

I'd pick two, on the opposite extremes of movie types...

Casablanca
Patton

Two of my all time favorites.

I had four, can't decide which one. The brilliant surpise ending makes these movies - it's never as enjoyable afterwards because you know what's coming:

The Sixth Sense
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Swimming with Sharks
The Usual Suspects

I'm sure I'll remember more..

Just remembered one more: Fight Club.

Empire Strikes Back- for the same reason. and I want to watch it with the eyes of a 10 year old again.

Blazing Saddles
Something bout mary

Mostly, though, there are a lot of movies I would be bettr off just erasing from my memory.

From Dusk Till Dawn

That genre twist halfway through the movie blew my mind.

Fight Club and The Sixth Sense were both cool, too.

Anybody who hasn't seen any of these 3 movies, go rent them.

No Way Out is a good one.

I liked the surprise in Matchstick Men.

I am consistantly amazed at how perfectly Gattaca predicts the future.
