Movie you've watched the most times?


I think it's either Goodfellas or Training Day for me. I find the latter an extremely easy and satisfying watch.

I don’t re- watch movies. Once is enough for me.
People here have some odd choices. Jaws or Oz, I can see going back to. Buffalo 66? Cool Runnings? Those were too bad to finish the first time.

You pick things up on a second watch.

That’s true.
I know many people to watch the same movies over and over. Once I know how the story ends, I don’t want to see it again.

reply

I never understood people who only watch a movie once, even if they thoroughly enjoyed it. It's like sleeping with a woman once and then discarding her regardless of how good she was. You wanna keep the good ones around.

There are differences. A movie won’t come back with a knife to try and kill you.

And the movie doesn’t expect you to spend the rest of your life with it making short films.

reply

Usually I will need a long break before watching a film again, unless I'm with another person who hasn't seen a particularly good film.
I think Fellini is an exception, and Kurosawa, and watching The Wizard of Oz is almost always a treat, but not much else, unless it's been long enough where I'm not over-familiar with it.

Godfather, Scarface, Star Wars, or LOTR. Maybe even Back to the Future.

Probably Empire strikes back because when I was a child I was watching that as a daily routine. As a teenager probably anything with Jim Carrey was rewatched multiple times, it was a safe choice. Steven Spielberg and Indiana Jones was always a good rewatch, then the blockbusters like the Independence day, men in black. Now I don't even watch movies that often but I could rewatch the good ones since there are a lot of classics to be seen.

King Kong (2005) by a long shot. I’ve easily seen it over 50 times, probably close to 100. It’s the reason I bought a projector.

Next would be Goodfellas.

reply

T2, Predator, The Crow, Cobra, Hard Target and Scarface (1983)

reply

The Terminator.

As a kid I watched the Star Wars trilogy many times.

As an adult, Goodfellas is probably the movie I've watched most often. Alien I've seen a lot as well.

reply

The Wizard of Oz (1939).
