Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
Requiem for a Dream
For me, I could watch Muppet Treasure Island over and over. The perfect movie.
For a movie I need to play for others: A Goofy Movie.
Any of Simon Pegg's movies (the trilogy of sorts).
Was going to say Hot Fuzz. You can watch it multiple times and it is still funny.
Something that everyone will love, like The Room or maybe Samurai Cop or maybe even Hard Ticket to Hawaii.
Depending on the group, sometimes old Jet Li flicks will work, too, like The New Legend of Shaolin / Legend of the Red Dragon which has some great baby-kung-fu.
Since someone already said The Princess Bride...
Penguins of Madagascar, The Movie
It is the funniest film I have ever seen. Starring John Malkovich as the villain and Benedict Cumberbatch as the other villain.
The truman show
This is a perfect time for the Christmas cracker approach - you're unlikely to be able to pick a movie that everyone agrees is good, so pick a movie that everyone agrees is bad, and bond over shared mockery.
Space Truckers (1996) - Dennis Hopper, Charles Dance. Terrible movie with some wacky bullshit, cube pigs, neon space twinks, and a cyborg love prosthetic.
Moonfall (2022) - another classic from Roland Emerick where most of the movie is nonsense but there is a seed of a brilliant idea buried in there.
Mega Shark Vs Mecha Shark (2014) - it starts with a giant shark catapulting a fishing boat from Manhattan to Giza, and gets more and more ridiculous as it goes on. Featuring Christopher Judge in one of his less believable roles.
Ghostbusters.
Since no one has said it yet, original Ghostbusters.
The Empire Strikes Back
Super Troopers.
"You boys like MEXICO?!?!?!"
Everyone vibes with? No such movie exists.
If I look at it as : everyone I know vibes with.. Again no such movie exists.
If I look at it as what certain people people would like.
Red with Bruce Willis
Knight and day with Tom Cruise
Lord of the rings
Day after tomorrow
Entrapment with Sean Connery
Replacements with Keanu Reeves
Empire Records just felt good and I think it could pull that off with a crowd.
