Movies you NEVER get sick of.
I know you usually can't watch a movie over and over, but I can think of one:
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas <- I think I could watch this non stop... maybe because I absolutley adore Hunter S. Thompson's work. Also, the narration is just fantastic... So, does anyone else have movies like this? |
I can watch a couple this way.
2 that come to mind are: Office Space: gets funnier each time :) & Gone in 60 Seconds: I actually don't like the movie that much and I only bought it because of Angelina Jolie, but I have found that I can watch it a million times. I know, I should be shot ;) :thumbsup: |
jerry maguire, dumb and dumber, and forrest gump.
i can watch those all day long |
Day of the Dead
Dawn of the Dead (original and remake) Night of the Dead (original and remake) Escape from LA/NY The Green Mile Shawshank Escape from Alcatraz Duel Friday a lot of old school horror flicks (Jason, Freddy, Halloween, etc) a lot of new horror flicks as well :), almost all good horror movies I watch over and over.

I'll agree with Shawshank Redemption. The first time I watched it was three years ago when I went to Costa Rica. I watched just about at least once a week during the trip. As for other movies:
American Beauty Pulp Fiction Love Actually Raiders of the Lost Ark |
In addition to many of the ones listed above, I like to watch First Knight, with the commentary. It's a LAME movie, but the commentary is hilarious.
|
We were soliders
Black Hawk Down Any James Bond :) Loads of others I'll try and add when I remember |
Alright then.. With my favourite films, I never get sick of watching em:
- Fight Club - Pulp Fiction - Boondock Saints - Versus (Everyone should experience this japanese film at least once :p ) - Blade - Blade II - Interview With The Vampire - Donnie Darko - American Beauty - Love Actually (yea, quite the contrast, but i adore this movie) I guess for me with as far as the matrix and star wars sorta epic films (LOTR trilogy included) are concerned.. i dunno, they're technically awesome movies, but the dull on me and don't have that offbeat edge or class that i usually go for.. barr love actually.. which is just sickeningly cute and.. yea.. my girlfriend loves it.. and i've been sucked into it's charm! |
Night at the Roxsbury, funnier every time you see it.
|
Shawshank and Boondock Saints
|
Aliens : It's got a great maniacal energy to it, just damn entertaining.
|
Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey. I know I'm not the only one who thinks it was better than the original. It's the only DVD I own that I consistently watch.

Spaceballs! And pretty much every other Mel Brooks film, they always leave me rolling. |

Office Space, such a classic movie. I love it.
|
2 that I keep going back to:
High Fidelity Singing In The Rain |
Fight Club. Seems to be either a love it or hate it movie. Personally, it's one of my favorite movies.
|
Don't forget Missouri Breaks. Or Groundhog Day. Or What About Bob. Or True Lies. And the classic Jimmy Cagney One! Two! Three!
Oh yeah, The Cheyenne Social Club. And Arsenic and Old Lace. |
I'm surprised no one has said Kung Pow.
Maybe it's just me, but I've watched this movie at least 100 times since I first saw it in theaters. It seems to be either a hit or miss for people but I love it. |
Am I the first to say "3 Amigos"?
Chevy Chase, Steve Martin and Martin Short?!? "Jefe, would you say I have a plethora of Piniatas?" "Yes, El Guapo, I would say you had a plethora of Piniatas..." "Do you know what a plethora is?" Shit, that was funny. Of course, all the previous posts were good too. I watch Big Lebowski and Good Will Hunting once a month or I go crazy. |
Before Sunrise and the sequel, before sunset. I really wanted to believe it was all true. Gosh, how I need love..
|
Fullmetal Jacket
Office Space |
Already mentioned by Kramus, but I never get sick of watching Groundhog Day, but the topic begs the question "How many times must you see the movie to come to the conclusion that you 'never get sick of' it?"
Groundhog Day: I have seen it ~12 times. I'm not sick of it yet. Mary Poppins: A great movie to my way of thinking, but after maybe 30 viewings, I want to hurt myself every time I see it. At 20 times, it was still palatable. The Sound of Music: ~15 viewings and I'm tired of it. It doesn't make me want to hurt myself though. Shrek: ~25 viewings. Same reaction as above, but not as good of a movie. I was sick of it around 15 viewings. The Incredibles: ~15 viewings. I'm starting to get sick of it, but I still really like specific parts of it. (Especially the Edna Mode character). |
Can't believe no one has mentioned Raising Arizona. I must have seen that movie fifty times. Has more memorable quotes in it than any movie I know.

Of course, one of the great things about having kids is you have a ready made excuse to see all the great animations that come out every school holidays, and soon after on DVD...AND...because kids like to watch movies over and over...and over...you don't even have to be the one to suggest watching them over and over...and over. How cool is that?
Like Shrek, Toy Story 1 & 2, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, etc. I see Shawshank Redemption's made plenty of lists - agree with that one for sure - I also haven't gotten tired of Kate & Leopold yet and have seen it plenty of times. And for the Aussies out there, I never get tired of reruns of the Wallabies winning against the NZ All Blacks. OK, so they're not technically movies, but hey, you understand. |
