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.

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

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

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

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.

Definitely the Avatar movie, I mean the blue ones not TLA. I watched it when it came out, watched it several times with my family and friends. Lastly I watched it at IMAX, was a fantastic experience. Sadly second movie did not live up to my expectations.

[–] Im28xwa@lemdro.id 2 points 2 years ago

Maybe Thor Ragnarok

[–] herc@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Definitely Bio Dome!

[–] R3tl3f@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

For me it Lord of the Rings and/or Harry Potter. Can't count how often I watched these masterpieces.

[–] dadasdair@infosec.pub 2 points 2 years ago

Alien, Aliens and Predator. The Big Lebowski and the John Wick films are gaining traction more recently.

The Matrix

Every rewatch I notice something new

Star Trek: First Contact or Insurrection

[–] ettyblatant@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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.

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.

[–] toffi@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

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

[–] wakamo@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

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

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

As a kid I spent probably a week sitting under a table in my room, rewatching A New Hope on a portable dvd player over and over and over. I thought that I should watch it until I had every line memorized, and then move onto ESB (which I never did for obvious reasons)

So probably ANH, followed by any other SW movie, then Mad Max Fury Road and Sicario

[–] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 years ago

Man of Steel

[–] OrkneyKomodo@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago

The Cabin in the Woods.

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

The fast and the furious 1,2,3

[–] Today@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years 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.
