What movie that you've seen dozens of times and probably own the dvd yet you still have to watch when it airs on tv.
Happy Gilmore, Life, are two that comes to mind.You lose a bit in editing and commercials but I still have to watch at least some of it.
The Outsiders is another one. Still waiting on the remake.
National Lampoon's Vacation (it's been on a lot recently)
The Jerk
To Kill a Mockingbird
The Guns of Navarone
The Bridge on the River Kwai

and a weird one - Ice Station Zebra (I always liked watching that on late nights as a kid)

I'm up late and a movie buff, so I rambled off a list.
Outstanding lists by you guys. Great thread b.
I can't believe how many movies I didn't think of initially, but you guys are spot on. How did I possibly forget Keyser Soze?? The Usual Suspects is a great movie and one hell of a cast. Great call by Delhi with Hoosiers, Major League, and Revenge of the Nerds. Subflea nailed it with My Cousin Vinny.
The Goonies also has to be added to my list.
