Movie with the most re-watchability

[kberg]

Ok gang, I know this question will generate a LOT of different opinions, but that's why I'm asking! :)

What movies do you think have the highest re-watchability. Let's not flame anybody here - they're just opinions! I'd just like to see if there is any type of pattern here. Let's try to limit the list to up to about 15 movies (I know, it's hard!). If you REALLY feel the urge to add more, go for it.

Let the lists begin!

I'll start...

2001: A Space Odyssey
Alien(s)
Apollo 13
It's a Wonderful Life
Jaws
Jurassic Park
LOTR
Predator
Saving Private Ryan
The Shawshank Redemption
Sleepy Hollow
T2
Titanic
Top Gun
The Wizard of Oz

[Davidv]

The Matrix
The 5th Element
Blazing Saddles
All 3 Jurassic Park movies
Predator
Lethal Weapon 1 thru 4?

Although not a movie, I can watch the very same Neon Genesis Evangelion series episodes back to back without a problem..

Yes, It is excellent...the best of the Star Trek movies and they did a great job with this video transfer and the 5.1 soundtrack.

Here is a nice review at HTF

[Dr. Spec]

Most "re-watchable" does not necessarily equate with "best" in my book.

Most re-watchable for me usually means comedic reparte, lots of action and gun play, some element of sci-fi or supernatural, or a combination of all three.

Doc

Armageddon
A Knight's Tale
Pulp Fiction
Snatch
Bad Boys
Desperado
The Long Kiss Goodnight
O' Brother Where Art Thou?
Grosse Point Blank
Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring (EE)
The Matrix
Men in Black
The Mummy
The Mummy Returns
Terminator
Terminator II
Blade
Blade II
From Dusk till Dawn
The Haunting

Funny you should mention this flick, I just got done watching it about 10 minutes ago and wanted to come on and search for prior threads about it... I liked it. Didnt hear many good things, but I throughly enjoyed.

[kberg]

Well, this is very interesting. I see many folks have listed movies that AREN'T on my list but ARE in my collection! Also, there are many movies listed that I totally forgot about and don't yet have in my collection, but really need to be in it!

Another one that I thought of that I don't recall being mentioned thus far and still ISN'T in my collection is An Officer and a Gentleman. For some reason, every time that movie is on TV, I watch it!

Thanks for all of the responses so far!

Kevin
