Last night we watched a short documentary on Martha Mitchell and her effect on the Watergate scandal. After the doc I had the unavoidable urge to put on All the President’s Men. It’s a movie I’ve seen dozens of times and I’m still riveted every time. We all know many here will rewatch Star Wars, LotR, etc. movies. But what are some of your lesser talked about frequent rewatches?
 
Mine are kind of a long list, I like rewatching things that evoke a certain emotion or mood.

Favorites:
Columbus (2017) (slightly edited)
The Gentlemen (2019) (edited to remove narrator)
Virginia Minnesota (2019) (slightly edited)
Youth (2015) (heavily edited into short film)

Other frequent:
Dr Who (Matt Smith/Jenna Coleman series of 9 episodes)
Impulse (2018) (season 2, edited)
Riviera (2017) (s1/s2, edited)
Shadow & Bone (2021) (s1, trimmed side plot)
Sweetbitter (2018) (edited)
Upload (2021) (s1)
You're The Worst (2014) (edited)

Various honorable mentions that I return to occasionally:
Altered Carbon (2018) (s1)
Hunter Killer (2018)
Life As We Know It (2010)
Palm Springs (2020)
Polar (2019) (slightly edited)
The Age of Adeline (2015)
The Thomas Crown Affair (1999) (slightly edited)
Tomorrowland (2015)
Too Big to Fail (2011)
Wildlike (2014) (slightly edited)

Most of the action-oriented ones are in the honorable mentions section, except for The Gentlemen, that has a fantastic vibe and flow, probably the best film Guy Ritchie has made. It's okay with the narrator, but once you edit him out it's fantastic since he interrupts the flow and only tells you things you later see on screen anyway. The other favorites and frequent tend to be pretty chill experiences.

My most watched movies - probably because I owned them as a kid
1. Major league
2. Ghostbusters
3. Labyrinth
4. Nightmare before Christmas

But now what do I like rewatching ? Great question! Probably something by Martin Scorsese - my appreciation for him has grown over the years.

Major League was a real big one for me as a kid. I should give it a rewatch. Hot Shots Part Deux was in heavy rotation too. Too bad Charlie Sheen couldn't keep it together, he had a real hot streak there...

I just saw the Hot Shots! duology only recently. Definitely worth rewatching if you're a fan of Airplane! and The Naked Gun. I haven't seen Major League, though. Guess I'll have to add that one to the watchlist.

Oh man I saw part deux in the movie theaters ! I loved Charlie sheen - young guns was another heavy rotation film
 
I wouldn't say it's my favorite movie, but the movie I've seen the most is probably The Rocky Horror Picture Show. I've seen it at least once a year since I first watched it at a friend's house in 1998. I can't think of any other movie I've watched 25+ times.

That "movie" really is the secret to immortality - you think you're living forever, but you're actually actively rotting away inside.


Anyhow, I could probably watch Valkyrie more than any other film, even the handful I love more.

lol you really seem to hate that movie, apparently for all the reasons I enjoy it. It's a fun scifi romp with some retro-futurism, positive vibes, and a bit of family-friendly action to round it out. Being offended by it is like being offended by Twix because it isn't a Snickers. In a community that loves silly nerd shit like Star Wars it's ironic to complain about Tomorrowland :)
 
I found that most of my rewatchables have been less and less rewatched over the years. Some of them were named more than once here already, but other than that, I still rewatch
Shawshank Redemption
Fear and loathing in Las Vegas
Beetlejuice
Fargo
The shining
 
A few that spring to mind:

Grosse Pointe Blank
Baby Driver
Arthur Christmas
