I haven’t known what movies to watch lately. Does everyone have their own treasure movies that they’ve seen many times? 😀
Princess Bride
- Month Python and the Holy Grail
- Young Frankenstein
- Seven Samurai
- LOTR Trilogy
I see a lot of LOTR fans here. Good crowd.
I had a holy grail vhs which i watched more or less every day after school. I used to be able to recite it from start to finish.
Also had both terminator movies on a double vhs so I’ve seen my fair share of them as well.
Primer. Twice before and once after reading an explanation
Kung Fu Hustle I’ve seen countless times.
That and Shaolin Soccer are sacred films to me. :D
Journey To The West as well, though.
I’ll have to find this one! Also a Stephen Chow movie?
Yes. It’s very similar to Kung Fu Hustle, but in a fantasy setting. It’s loosely based on some Chinese folklore of the same name.
Brazil (1984)
I haven’t seen it listed here in a quick scan, so:
Office Space
You don’t need a million dollars to do nothing. Look at my cousin. He’s broke as hell, don’t do shit.
Watch your cornhole, bud.
I love that Swingline only introduced the red stapler after Milton made it famous
A classic comfort film.
In steam of consciousness order:
- Young Frankenstein
- Princess Bride
- Double Indemnity
- Nightmare Before Christmas
- The Breakfast Club
- The Fifth Element
- 12 Monkeys

- Men In Black
- The Incredibles

Probably a number of others
The Fifth Element is the quintessential sci-fi movie. Literally, the word quintessence means “fifth element”.
It’s so completely enjoyable.
Every kid had that movie on tape or dvd that watched over and over. Mine was Young Frankenstein on beta.
Tron and various Star Treks
Mine was Ghostbusters. Watched it until the tape broke rewinding it one day.
It’s so great. Like Princess Bride, very quotable, too.
I second most of these, especially The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
I would add most Kubrick films including Dr. Strangelove and 2001.
Also, Being John Malkovich, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., Dawn of the Dead remake 2004
The most recent film I can’t stop watching is Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Theives.
Dr Strange love, 2001, and Being John Malkovich are all movies I’ve seen more than three times.
First time I’ve seen ‘Harvey’ mentioned here.
I wish I could give more upvotes.
When I was a kid, I got into watching old movies, and that one became my favorite. I loved that movie.
As he got older, Stewart did it on Broadway and a couple of times for television.
“If I ever go broke, I can always take ‘Harvey’ on tour and get back on my feet.”
Pretty much any studio Ghibli movie. Have watched spirited away, Totoro, howls moving castle, valley of the wind, and many more more than 3x. Don’t often rewatch stuff but have a soft spot for ghibli!
Primer
Napoleon Dynamite
Primer doesn’t count. You haven’t watched it once until you’ve watched it three times.
So 9==3?
oh my god Primer was so good. That’s intense.
I was gonna say that one, GOSH
the lotr trilogy is a good one, especially if you have the extended versions.
Pulp Fiction
I watched that like 8 times over the course of summer holiday as a teen.
My parents were on vacation, I’d borrowed it from the library and every time some friends visited, they saw the dvd and went “oh lets watch pulp fiction!”.
It does lose some of it’s appeal around viewing 5, but still enjoyable. But me and my one friend who was there often could almost act the whole movie by the end, so that was fun.
Dogma, Lawrence of Arabia, Philadelphia Story, Hudson Hawk, The Martian, Edge of Tomorrow, Kung Fu Hustle, Delicatessen, Apocalypse Now, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, LOTR, Star Wars (original 3), The Thin Man series.
