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.

I’m not sure why but I will find myself rewatching Catch me if you can every couple of years on a whim. Something about it compels me

Freddy got fingered, to the point a friend and me could retell the whole movie word for word.

"...the Rat Pack one with Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin!"
Imagine some crazy guy saying that.

Practical Magic. It might be tied with Nightmare Before Christmas.

It was comfortable for me to watch them both often when I scored a VCR in my room.

Star Trek: First Contact or Insurrection

I used to fall asleep watching Twister on VHS. Something about the substandard quality and tracking sound really sealed the deal when I needed to catch some Zzz's.

I watched it so many times that I wore out the tape.

For me it's Casino. Easily my favorite movie.

[-] lemminer@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

These are the movies on the top of my head I've watched more than 20 times.

  • Batman: Dark knight
  • Orange clockwork, Eyes wide shut, Dr. Strangelove
  • Before sunrise and before sunset. Third one is kinda cringe.
  • Shawshank Redemption

do birds fly? do ducks duck?

[-] lemminer@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

You got that right. Before sunset was the one I rewatched alot out of the three. I had a relatable moment in my life which I still cherish.

I didn't understood your first statement.

Hateful Eight. The acting, pacing, dialogue all 10/10 IMO. It just feels cozy watching it.

[-] ClaretNBlue@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

American History X, Pulp Fiction, Heat.. I could go on and on

As a kid, Tremors, Aliens, and Police Academy 4. Those were films we had on VHS (recorded from the TV). The first two were on the same 4h cassette, recorded in glorious long play mode and the write protection tab broken out for safety.

More than a dozen watches for each of those.

As an adult, there's a few had multiple watches. No idea what's the "most" but the ones that stick out are: Charlie's Angels - the mid 2000's one with Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz and Lucy Lu. Blade 2 The fast and the Furious The terminator Kill Bill

Airplane!

Surely you can't be serious.

I am serious, and don't call me Shirley.

Beerfest, back to the future 1+2, the big lebowski are some of my repeat picks.

Probably A Goofy Movie. I had it on VHS and watched it over and over, the themes in it were just exactly what I needed to hear as a tween. It probably fell behind in the count for a while, but now I have Disney plus and rewatch it pretty regularly. And yes, I've seen the Atlanta episode, I had no idea, and it's hilarious.

[-] Today@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

My family watched this so many times! We named our cat Max. My adult children got Powerline t-shirts last Christmas.

[-] CptInsane0@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The Last Dragon or Ghostbusters, probably. I still watch those both at least once a year. So probably 50+ times for both of those.

[-] RedC@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Drive Thru. It's a B rate slasher horror flick. Highly entertaining and always a recommendation.

[-] ao4571@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

There are few of them for me, but maybe Warrior (2011) is the favourite go to movie for me. If I'm overwhelmed by anything, it helps me reset myself and put things in perspective and get me in the mindset to fight back and stay strong.

[-] Today@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Anytime they pop up we watch Casino Royale, Groundhog Day, Family Stone. We were late picking friends up at the airport yesterday because we were sitting in a hotel watching Grease. I love Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, but it's exhausting to watch so i sometimes skip it.

[-] tigaente@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

For me American Pie (was the first movie I've watched in English, when I was finding out you could switch languages on dvd), followed by the Matrix.

[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Aliens Forrest Gump Incredibles Shrek Shawshank Redemption 5th Element Ice Age
