Donnie Darko
Fight Club
Pulp Fiction
All three of those make much more sense the second time around.
In general, though, that's a matter of personal preference. I will never turn down Young Frankenstein, The Blues Brothers, Blazing Saddles, Groundhog Day, or The Princess Bride.
The Lord of the Rings
Memento The Prestige The Sixth Sense Fight Club Interstellar Pulp Fiction
Memento
All Nolan movies, except Tenet.
I love Korean movies like
Snowpiercer! Great movie by the same director as Parasite
Good movie. Weird flow.
I pick up something new almost every time I watch Memento.
Interstellar.
And the incredible soundtrack by Hans Zimmer.
Matrix. I've watched the trilogy god knows how many times, I still find it entertaining.
The Fifth Element
AZIZ
The Sound of Music
Blade Runner
Raiders of the Lost Ark
12 Angry Men
The Emperor's New Groove
Interstellar
Darren Aronofsky's Pi. I've watched 3 times, each separated by a decent amount of time, and I think the third was my favourite.
Its short runtime (84 mins) is I suspect a major factor in this. Nowadays it's almost like rewatching a favourite episode of a beloved Sci-Fi.
It definitely would make a good Black Mirror episode. My problem is the ending sequence is so brutal and off putting that I find it hard to rewatch for recommend to others.
It was neat to recognize the actor who played Hector Salamanca in it though as the professor. That guy has awesome range!
Primer or really any good time travel movie. For Primer, you pretty much have to re-watch out to make sense of what is going on. Highly recommended though!
Weekend At Bernie's.
Movie: hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy, RRR, most of Ghibli studios, drunken Master.
Shows: house, Dirk gently's holistic detective agency, the Blackadder
Definitely Arrival
All David Lynch movies and Interstellar off the top of my head.
my biggest mistake was watching inland empire before i had learned to appreciate lynch through twin peaks
Shrek
5th Element.
The Shawshank Redemption. I don't have cable any more, but when I did, I'd watch it any time i saw it on.
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Some lesser popular options:
The Incredibles
Monsters, Inc.
Star Trek IV The Voyage Home and VI The undiscovered country
Star Trek Beyond
Top gun
Bloodsport
Jaws
Vertigo
Big Trouble in Little China
Withnail and I
Airplane! and Airplane II: The Sequel
Hackers
WALL-E
Maybe not worth rewatching every night/weekend, but from time to time I absolutely love rewatching Legend of Hei.
I don't remember where, but I remember some people online kinda comparing it as something like a Chinese Studio Ghibli film, which in a way is partially true since it has a magical feel to it.
I got a DVD/Blueray set through Shout! Factory and do not regret the purchase, personally.
Ramayanam Mahabharatam Unforgiven The magnificent seven The good, bad and the ugly There will be blood Nuvvu naaku nachaav Athadu Cloud Atlas Cast away Bahubali Deyyam ......
Alien
I can watch it on repeat and die happy
Definitely in the running for best movie ever made.
Sharknado
Primer First time I watched it I had to restart the DVD immediately after it ended.
