For me, it’s either the Matrix or Pulp Fiction. I have seen both a lot of times but certainly not more often than say a dozen times.

John Carpenter's The Thing Must've seen it a dosen times by now. Secondly I think I could watch no country for old men on repeat without being bored of it

[-] 0xd4n@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

Friday the 13th the new blood, V for vendetta and hackers.

I Love You Man, my comfort movie and one I never get sick of or fails to pick me up

[-] THB@lemmy.film 5 points 2 years ago

Raiders of the Lost Ark, Mad Max: Fury Road, A Knight's Tale, Tokyo Godfathers, Life Aquatic.

I've seen them all at least 5-10 times fully and probably more times partially. It's definitely a wide spectrum, and one of them is not what you would call a "good" movie compared to the others. I'll let you decide which, but I'm hella not ashamed.

I have kids so I have to rewatch a lot of movies against my will. I think we’ve watched boss baby 2 nearly every day since Memorial Day.

[-] venusenvy47@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I was thinking of various movies that constantly run on TV, but your comment made me realize that Cars or Polar Express is probably the correct answer. My son was obsessed with those movies when he was young and we had them on constant rotation.

The Bourne series. That shit was awesome!

When I was younger, I rewatched Inception plenty of times because it was my favourite movie and because I keep seeing new details, learning new little things about the movie every time.

2001, close to 40 times...and only in theaters. (I've never watched it on TV.)

Boogie Nights, close to 50 times...perhaps half of those on the big screen.

When I was a kid, Mrs. Doubtfire and The Santa Clause. I don't rewatch movies as often as an adult.

Jurassic Park. The practical effects still hold up well and even the CGI is still passable.

Plus it's my favorite movie of all time.

[-] godless@latte.isnot.coffee 5 points 2 years ago

The Boondock Saints or The Matrix for me, both way over a dozen times.

"The thing" is always a great watch and worth coming back to.

Star Trek: First Contact

Shrek. I saw it every day for like 25 straight days.

[-] monobot@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

Chasing Amy

First time I rented it out on VHS (yeah!) I watched it three times in a row and sill rewatch it every few years.

Hilarious and deep, I learned a lot from wat hing that movie.

Star Trek: First Contact

[-] AquaTofana@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

The original Independence Day, The Big Short, Jaws, Halloween, and Pacific Rim are all comfort movies that are on rotation whenever my husband or I are gone for work and I get lonely 😂

[-] NerdyOldGeek@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

I have not thought about this before but thinking back I guess the movie I have re-watched the most is Contact. I don't know why I just like it. I really don't re-watch movies that much. I do re-watch TV series quite often (HACF is the most re-watched).

[-] Gibbyson@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

SWAT. Only because we didn't have cable and we couldn't get it unstuck from the VCR.

[-] harry_h0udini911@lemmy.fmhy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

Harry Potter!

Back to the future is my jam. 1 2 or 3.

The Martian and Clerks!!

[-] teawrecks@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 years ago

I'm not much of an anime person (and maybe this movie gives that away), but Spirited Away is so magical. Just everything about it is so detailed, I'm entranced every time.

The Shawshank Redemption

[-] Knightfall@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 years ago

I watched the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie so many times as a kid I can still lip sync most of the film to this day.

I've also watched Space Balls and Monty Python and the Holy Grail more times than I can count.

[-] Varyag@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

School of Rock, it kinda became a Christmas movie with my family, we watch it every year. Jingle All The Way with Arnold Schwarzenegger is the other one.
Then there's my personal favorite, Pacific Rim. I absolutely adore that movie, giant robots fighting kaijus. Too bad there was never a sequel.

[-] Ciari@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Oh man, I'm going to get made fun of for this, but... The Barbie movies. Especially The 12 Dancing Princresses. My sister and I watched it so many times as kids that we could quote the entire thing (we often did so while watching it lmao). Honestly just off the top of my head now I probably could quote a good 80-90 percent of it. We must have watched it more than a hundred times, not even exaggerating.

I used to know the guy who does the music for them. Our bands used to play together all the time like 15 years ago, and we would chat after the shows and online all the time. He's like the nicest guy I've ever met. I haven't talked to him in years, though.

Edit: To be clear though, he didn't do 12 Dancing Princesses. I'm pretty sure he would have been in middle school at the time. He does the newer ones.

[-] daddyrat@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Moonstruck. It’s like watching a home movie of our family reunion.

I’ll say no more…

I gotta go with Primer because it pretty much is necessary to re-watch it multiple times to understand what is going on.
