G'day, you lovely lot! I hope you’ve got something warm in hand and a comfy spot to settle into, because today we’re starting with a little trip down movie memory lane.

We all have that one movie. You know the one—no matter how many times you've seen it, it never gets old. For me, it's Notting Hill. That blend of romance, humour, and Hugh Grant's awkward charm? I could watch it on repeat and still get that warm, fuzzy feeling every time. I would also never forget Julia Roberts' iconic line:

I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her.​

Isn't it heart-wrenching? If you're curious about the movie, you can watch the trailer below:

So now I’m curious—what movie could you watch every single day just because you love it that much? Is it a timeless classic, a feel-good comedy, or something that just hits the right emotional notes?

Let us know your pick right here — we might even discover a few new ones to add to the must-watch list!

I think "Taking Chance" would be my favourite movie.
I've watched it countless times and it's brilliant.

The first Wives Club. Love the actors in it.

Ghost and any Lassie movie. Plus Misery ( Stephen King).

The Dish, everything about the movie, the script, the acting, the actors, the one liners, the music Russell Morris, the story and it's all in a sheep paddock, have to admit it brings smiles, laughter and a tear to my eyes.
The other is a surf movie "Big Wednesday". It told about the times, the changes in surfing at the time, the culture. Had a mix of Hollywood actors and real time surfers, no fake waves, magic long board surfing, the guys, the girls, the reality, the music, Pete Townsends solo surf session and that soul arch turn is surfing at its finest...artistic.
