Pulp Fiction. Whenever I caught it on cable, I would always end up watching it to the end.

for quite a long time following the matrix i rewatched that shit so many times on so many different media that i could pretty much recite the entire movie. it's been quite a while now, so if i ever watched it again i would enjoy it just as much, but my ability to karaoke along would probably be down to 40-50% of the spoken lines.

the fight club is fun to rewatch couple times because you keep seeing new layers of foreshadowing.

up is always a joy, and a guarantee for me to cry twice. i was gonna say tear up but that shit hits me hard i can barely contain myself.

Surprised no one mentioned Memento.

I'd say that you HAVE to re-watch it to understand wtf is going on.

The big lebowski almost requires rewatching. It just gets funnier and funnier every time, there are so many little details and quotable lines. "Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man."

Thematically, you can watch the film through different lenses. I remember reading an article about the religious undertones - the dude as Buddha, Walter as Yahweh etc. Makes Jesus as a weird little pervert even funnier.

Groundhog Day, once a year.

Gattaca. It's just such a well made film.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

<3. The letters in the title could be a DNA sequence. We might watch this tonight, for date night!

Taking of Pelham 123 is one of the most watchable movies I've seen. The original.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I rewatched Young Guns recently, and besides the fantastic nostalgia rush, I realized that I had only ever seen the edited for TV version

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Usual Suspects.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Prometheus. Such a great movie!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

We must be thinking of different films...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I know it gets lots of hate, but it's a visually stunning movie.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

The production values are good, and it's generally entertaining, but I just can't cope with the gaps in logic and the seemingly deliberate attempts to make it conflict with the Alien films.

I'd rather re-watch the Red Letter Media review than the film itself.

The 1993 Super Mario Bros.

As campy and crappy as it is, it never fails to put a smile on my face and make me laugh, that movie rules.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Agree with many others here. Also: Aliens, Terminator 2, True Lies, Bad Boys, The Naked Gun, Top Secret!, Hot Shots: Part Deux, Deadpool 1-3

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Heck yeah! Hot shots is so good

I watch V for Vendetta every November

I have watched SnowPiercer at least 6 times (and yes, I totally belive it is a sequel to Willy Wonka)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Snowpiercer is so, so very weird. Fantastic!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Porch Rosso and some other ghibli movies I guess.

I would have said ponyo or maybe spirited way.
