In no particular order besides alphabetical (all movies rewatched over a dozen times):
There are many more, but I'm not gonna sit here and try to remember them all.
Lord of The Rings. and I canβt count how many times it was. as a kid I had a weekly routine to watch at least one of the movies. oh dear how I love this trilogy
Iβm 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
I gotta go with Primer because it pretty much is necessary to re-watch it multiple times to understand what is going on.
So there's several high caliber films I've seen a bunch, like Pulp Fiction, Memento, etc.. but I think the actual movie I've seen the most times is The Room.
For the uninitiated, The Room is the worst movie of all time. Tommy Wiseau wrote, produced, directed, and starred in this disasterpiece. It's so bad, they made a movie about the book about the making of The Room. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion for 90 minutes.
I've been responsible for many people's first viewings, which means I've seen it far, far more than I should. I almost got to meet Tommy and Greg (plays Tommy's best friend in film) at a screening but icy ass rain made the trek too dangerous.
I'd say it's a must see for anyone who enjoys film. Every other movie will feel better after comparing it to this flaming bag of garbage. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll say "wtf" at least 7 times.
You just convinced me to watch it, so either thank you or fuck you lmao I'll keep you posted
Just saw Primer for the first time, so I'm gonna need to preemptively answer: Primer.
I have 2 answers.
By choice: Growing up, I watched Strange Brew with my friends uncountable times.
Not by choice: for 10 years I worked slinging tvs in a hifi store. I watched the following movies so many times.
Both Grumpy Old Men movies are watched every single year at least once.
Mononoke Home / Princess Mononoke
Chronicles of Riddick, King Arthur - Legend of the Sword, Pirates of the Caribbean series, LOTR series.
3 Idiots, a feel-good Indian movie.
All is well
Kid- Clash of the Titans (eighties version)
Cable years - Shawshank Redemption (it is still ALWAYS on)
recent/streaming- Avengers or GotG
Original Clash of the Titans Medusa scared the crap out of me. I may be dating myself...
It's a Wonderful Life. Every year on Christmas, and every year I can relate with George just a little bit more. I've even seen a stage version of it love!
"Hot Rod", "Accepted", or "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"
American History X, Pulp Fiction, Heat.. I could go on and on
Ice Station Zebra
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.
Maybe Thor Ragnarok
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
Definitely Bio Dome!
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.
Iβve seen The Fellowship of the Ring more times med than I can count. I love the whole trilogy, but Fellowship is my favorite.
Eurotrip
I love rewatching "monster" movies. Like The Mummy, Deep Blue Sea, and Lake Placid.
These are the movies on the top of my head I've watched more than 20 times.
Alien, Aliens and Predator. The Big Lebowski and the John Wick films are gaining traction more recently.
Airplane!
Surely you can't be serious.
I am serious, and don't call me Shirley.
