Do you have any "comfort movies" like I do? Some of the films I dig out when I'm ill or just having a bad day include:

Star Trek V: The Voyage Home
The Princess Bride
The Neverending Story
Disney Animated Classics
You've Got Mail
Stardust
Pride & Prejudice (2005)

So I go for stuff from my childhood, a bit of romance, and things that are just easy, escapist viewing.

What are yours?
 
Dirty Dancing
Police Story
Austin Powers (any of them)
Castle of Cagliostro
Shrek (only the first one!)
POTC (again only the first one hate the others)
Shaun of the Dead
Willow
 
I'm more the colin firth Pride and prejudice
Emma
singin in the rain
gentlemen prefer blondes
while you were sleeping
now and then
some kind of wonderful
and the last couple of times I've been really ill has been leading up to xmas (the last 2 years) so found myself watching xmas type films on sky and the ones they have on the movies 24 channel..the ones that seem like hallmark type films with the happy endings

and forgot to add the goonies
 
For me it's Back to the Future!

I used to watch it all the time when I was younger lol.

Also:
Enchanted
Finding Nemo
other Disney films lol
Shrek

But I also like to watch TV programmes as well when I'm ill/feeling down.
 
Yeah, they're good too. I worked my way through the first two seasons of Gossip Girl in no time when I got those. Not a movie, but another great "curl up with" escapist bit of fluff.
 
If I'm feling crap I like to cheer myself up by watching something lighthearted, Dumb and Dumber is one, The Animal with Rob Schnieder another and so on. Anything to just relieve the mood.
 
If I'm feeling down I usually like to watch something that will make me feel even worse :D so, it's usually something that will make me cry like Beaches, The Way We Were or my absolute favourite, Somewhere in Time :cry:
