Have you watched through the credits? Last time I watched this I was half-watching the credits after it ended and one caught my eye...it was the producer or someones divorce attorney. So i watched more closely, all three movies have random 'credits' thrown in the mix. Was some funny stuff.

Yep, you have to watch the movies multiple times to be sure you get all the jokes
I've probably haven't noticed all of them yet.

Nice thread!   


When I was a little bitty baby (or maybe 10-11 yrs.    ) I must have seen Star Wars: Episode IV about a thousand times! I remember taping it on VHS when they showed it on TV and it got to  a point where I could recite the dialouge precisley while watching it (that's when my mum banned it for a year    ).

I went 11 times to the theatre to see The Fellowship of the Ring. I just couldn't get enough of it, and having waited for ever to finally see it, I just went all out... 

Other movies I can't seem to get enough of is;
Leaving Las Vegas
As Good as it Gets
Saving Private Ryan
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark

And now, for my 6-year old son, Tobias;

Cars (67 times and counting...)
Arthur and the Minimoys (43 times and counting...)
Shrek 1 & 2 (153 times and counting...)

It's better to burn out than to fade away!

The Fifth Element
The City of Lost Children
Black Mask
Batman: The Movie

How could I have forgotten Save the Green Planet?!?

In China They Eat Dogs (thanks to goblinsdoitall for the reminder) and Wonderful Days are also definite re-watchers.  Oh, and believe it or not Silent Hill and DOOM.

I have several, most mentioned here already. The one that sticks out the most was "The Wizard of Oz", only because back in those days it was usually broadcast once a year. That usually made it a family thing to watch. We didn't have cable back in those days. Maybe 3-4 channels if you were lucky so there was no scanning 600 channels for something else to watch. I remember those monkeys scaring the crap out of me when I was really young.  The movie still gives me the creeps to this day.

Yes!

There are very few movies that I'll watch "over and over again", but several of those mentioned in this thread are films that I have enjoyed more than once.

My all time favorite film: King Kong (1933, of course)
A couple of others, in no particular order:
Jason & The Argonauts (Harryhausen, not Hallmark)
The Princess Bride
Wizard of Oz
Singin' in the Rain
North by Northwest
Police Story (Jackie Chan)
Help! (The Beatles)
Die Hard
M. Hulot's Holiday (Jacques Tati)
Guns of Navarone
