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.

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!

Gangs of Wasseypur. It's a 5-hour movie, split into two parts. But really, it's just one epic story. I've watched it countless number of times. While in college, me and my mates would get high and watch this movie. I've probably watched it with most of my friends at least once.

Two other movies that come close are Pulp Fiction and Bhooter Bhobishyot.

A Silent Voice, really beautiful movie about bullying and redemption. I watched it a few years ago when I was in a really bad place, and it helped me a lot.

In no particular order besides alphabetical (all movies rewatched over a dozen times):

  • Atomic Blonde
  • Bad Boys 1 and 2
  • Bourne Trilogy
  • Back To The Future trilogy
  • Deja Vu
  • Eraser
  • LOTR trilogy
  • Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of Black Pearl
  • Swat
  • Terminator trilogy
  • True Lies
  • Transformers (the original ones with Shia LaBeouf)

There are many more, but I'm not gonna sit here and try to remember them all.

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.

I gotta go with Primer because it pretty much is necessary to re-watch it multiple times to understand what is going on.

[–] nayminlwin@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

3 Idiots, a feel-good Indian movie.

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

I love rewatching "monster" movies. Like The Mummy, Deep Blue Sea, and Lake Placid.

Both LOTR and Harry Potter, marathon once in a while.

[–] prwnr@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Lord of The Rings. and I can’t 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

[–] gamer99@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] rynzcycle@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

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

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