Victor Victoria. Jazz hot baby

I’ve watched a lot of movies more than 3 times.

12 monkeys is the movie I’ve seen most, though, coming in at multiple dozens of watches over the years. It’s easily my favorite. It kicked off a new way of thinking for me when I was an impressionable young teen, and has largely held up in terms of watchability.

The tv show based on it couldn’t have done a worse job of holding my attention, though. So that was disappointing.

Galaxy Quest

The Fifth Element comes to my mind immediately. It was my happy place.

The Lord of the Rings, It's what I watch when I felt lost.

Also, Nostalgia, another film I rewatch when I felt not belonging and nowhere to go back to.

Too many to count, and more than I even remember.

I went without internet in an area not friendly to children being outside, so I watched movies in no particular order over and over. Just "yeah I haven't watched this in a few weeks" and re-watch.

Lord of The Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, Monty Python (all), Princess Bride, MIB, Evolution, Terminator 1&2, Starship Trooper... Honestly most popular Sci fi movies from the 90s... The sound of music, fiddler on the roof, a bunch of musicals..

I'm sure I watched the classic disney movies many times.

I know people who buy watch a movie and then don't feel like watching any of them ever again.

Far too many to name, so here's the first 10 that come to mind:

• Ghostbusters
• Star Wars
• Goodfellas
• Aliens
• Clue
• Back to the Future
• Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
• Akira
• His Girl Friday
• Escape to Victory

A ton, but the one I'm most inclined to talk about is The Thing (1982). We rewatch it almost weekly since I introduced my spouse to it which is amazing because each time we spend about an hour afterwards dissecting the things motives, the order of replacements, different theories, etc. It's truely one of the best movies ever made. The practical effects get a ton of praise, but for me it's just gotta efficiently the movie is at what it does. You know every character within minutes of their appearance, you feel the alienation and paranoia, and the thing itself is so inexplicable that even after hundreds of watches in my life time I genuinely can't rationalize why it does what it does.

The 2011 one would have been better if they left in the pilot alien and had better set and custome guys. It doesn't feel like a pequal, it feels like a remake set in 2011.

Muppet Treasure Island
A Muppet Christmas Carol
The Princess Bride
The Great Mouse Detective (the most faithful movie adaptation of Sherlock Holmes, fight me)
Inception
Ghost in the Shell
The Little Mermaid, but not by choice. It was my little sister's favorite movie and she would genuinely watch the VHS tape of it, rewind it, and then watch it again immediately. My brothers and I once entertained ourselves on a family road trip by quoting the whole movie, word for word.

How to Train Your Dragon

used to fall asleep to it every night

Tremors 1, 2 or 3. Don't bother with 4+ its all straight to DVD nonsense.

Redline (2009) probably the best animated movie of all time (studio ghibli people i will fite u)

Idiocracy is very funny in a not very funny kind of way

Elemental was a fantastic Pixar IP that looks like its going to get some fascinating world building in a sequel

Real genius.

These are just movies I've probably seen more than 3 times in no particular order, they aren't all necessarily masterpieces (though some are):

Everything, Everywhere, All at Once

Princess Bride

Blade Runner / Bladerunner 2049

Idiocracy

Interstellar

Spaceballs

Clue

The Other Guys

Dr Strangelove

Airplane! / Airplane 2!

Terminator 2

Kung Pow: Enter the Fist

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

Home Alone

12 Monkeys

Inception

The Iron Giant

Trading Places

Star War: Backstroke of the West, The Third Gathering

Hentai Kamen

Meet the Feebles

Hundreds of Beavers! It's an absolute delight showing it to someone who has never seen it before.

I’ve probably seen Hot Fuzz more times than any other movie. It was a comfort movie for a while.

My cousin Vinny I watch it once a year because it is a masterpiece.

Terminator 2. Judgment Day is my favorite movie of all time. I watch it pretty consistently. Sometimes I'll leave it on playing in the background when I'm doing stuff on the computer.

Marry poppins.

What a good movie.

Most definitely Big Fish. Every time I swear I won't cry; every time I end up sobbing. With snot.
It just hits too close to home. I even had to trigger-warn my 55-year-old dad, to whose home it hits even closer.

• The Usual Suspects
• Forgetting Sarah Marshall
• Palm Springs

Bad Santa is my christmas movie. I regret watching Bad Santa 2 once.

• Super Troopers
• The Big Lebowski
• Breakin
• The Blues Brothers
• Predator
• Aliens
• Garden State
• Starship Troopers

I think in general comedies are just way easier to rewatch for what ever reason.

Also I think just because I rewatch a movie a lot does not mean it is the best movie. I think some movies just give a certain vibe that is enjoyable.

• Airplane
• Naked Gun
• Scary movie
• Simpsons movie
• Spirited Away
• Se7en
• The Prestige
• Inception
• Weathering with you

I probably also watched some Christmas movies a ton of times just because they played on TV a lot when I was a kid like Home Alone.

Synechdoche, New York

Sideways!! Always Sideways.

Superbad

One I saw 8 times when it came out is E.T. Hadn't seen it mentioned yet.

More recently I loved coming back to Lost in Translation.

Spaceballs and Groundhog Day
