I don't particularly do this, but my wife does. Her go to movie is Twister and she's easily seen it hundreds of times, no exaggeration. She'll put it on while she's doing other things and not really paying attention.

Dazed and Confused in high school. You were lucky if you could even find it at the video rental place because everyone would rent and keep…which is what we did. Sorry Blockbuster.

Tommy Boy in college. Watched multiple times back to back.

To this day I will watch Tombstone whenever it is on.

Is Willow good? I might snag a used blu ray for my collection.

It's worth watching. That came out when I was at A&M. I thought upon seeing it that Willow would be the best movie I'd see that year, but then came July's release of something called Die Hard. Now all these years later, Die Hard remains one of the best movies I've ever seen. Willow, not so much. It has not withstood the test of time. The visual effects were not great even for the time, surprisingly since IL&M did them, but now they look like something a kid with an 8mm camera might produce.

Even at the time it came out, I knew of some similarities with The Lord of the Rings (I had only watched the animated movie that came out in the 70s, had not read those books by that time). Now having read those books and watched those movies umpteen number of times, I am curious if there were ever any criticisms of Willow's similarities to Tolkien's work.

Oh, I am aware. I'd say, though, that his borrowed ideas for Star Wars were less obvious to 10-yr-old me than Willow's were to 21-yr-old me.

I do that too, but I do it to help offset ADD as I can't just have quiet while I'm working on things, and sometimes I just need to have a planned distraction from what I'm focusing on so a movie I know is perfect as I can watch it for a bit and then leave it be and go back to what I was working on no problem.

Some of my top repeatable movies are
Twister (still great)
Independence Day
Jurassic Park
Clue
Ghostbusters
The OG Star Wars Trilogy
Knives Out (found out this one works well)
3rd Harry Potter movie
Predator (I found a lot of the 80s action movies can work)

Yep, I do the same, with movies like Alien, any Star Wars, Indiana Jones, or Back to the Future, Armageddon, or high-level MCU movies like Captain America: The Winter Soldier, or Avengers Infinity War + Endgame.

LOTR trilogy as well. Watched many times over. Hobbit trilogy, not so much.

Clue does the best job (better than any movie in my opinion) of balancing between over the top funny and stupid B movie corny. You can just tell the cast had a great time being able to take the idea/concept of their Clue character and going over the top with them.

Willow is ****ing terrifying.

I watched Urban Cowboy about once a week with a buddy in the dorm back in the spring of 98.

Quigley Down Under, Chism, Stagecoach ('39 version), Magnificent Seven(original), Monte Walsh (Tom Selleck), Rare Breed, American Sniper, The Cowboys, The Ghost and the Darkness, High Noon, The Man from Snowy River.

In Bruges. Every night for 7 months on my second deployment.

Holy Grail. Watched it every chance I got. This was in the Dark Ages before VCRs, and the only way to watch British comedy was our local PBS station.

Ghostbusters. Saw it 11 times in the theater the summer it was released. My buddy and I would get to the ticket booth, intending to see something else, and then buy another ticket to Ghostbusters anyway.

---

Damn near had Holy Grail memorized in college. Same with Dazed and Confused

---

My copy of the Holy Grail script book is well worn and lovingly dog eared.

Clue is great. Murder by Death is even better.

I presume the OP isn't referring to what your kids make you put on over and over again...

I've never seen Finding Nemo but can quote a ton of it.

We used to have it on in the car when we went places and my kids would watch it nonstop.

They didn't use the headphones because mom could never figure out how to play it in the headphones and music on her end, so we just got used to listening to movies.

i highly doubt your mom driving around your kids?

One summer I watched Joe Dirt on repeat on a road trip to South Carolina.

The two movies I have watched by far more than any others:

• Full Metal Jacket
• A Christmas Story

What can I say, it's a duality of man. The Jungian thing.

Danggggggg

Dune (the new one)

Read the book again and have watched it 5-7 times on SWA flights. I try to find subtle things that are not obvious in the move but are very obvious in the book. There are a lot of subtleties!

I saw The Fast and the Furious on 8 consecutive days in theaters. I was in college and me and a buddy saw it two days in a row with different groups of people, and for reasons which are partially obscured by an alcohol-induced haze, we decided to see how many days in a row we could see it.

We did this with "Dragon - Bruce Lee Story" in college as well (but for three days). I small group went and saw it (beer in hand). Loved it, were telling people about it later that night at a party and reciting lines. They would get excited so we went back the next night with the larger group sht-faced and watched. Repeated this all one more time with an even larger group on the third night. By the then we were reciting all of the lines during the movie. Was probably a shtty thing for everyone else in the theater (not a lot, but still). We stopped at 3 though.

Saw Wayne's World three nights in a row opening weekend. I got invited three times so I went three times!

There was a stomach bug in town at that time (I have told this story before). It seemed to come from the BWA water. All of my co-workers that lived where they were not on BWA water didn't get the bug. The rest of us got it.

It was odd to go to the grocery store or CVS/Walgreens and see the shelves cleared of Immodium, Pepto, and whatever else treats the runs. All of it just gone.

I bring that up because it was opening weekend of the movie and the center seats of the theater each night were empty. Everyone wanted to be close to the aisle so they could make a quick exit. Very bizarre experience.

In high school I watched Pulp Fiction every chance I got, and it's still my all-time favorite movie. I still watch at least once a year.

Senior year at A&M, I dated a girl who didn't have cable, and we watched nothing but a Blockbuster-rented copy of Royal Tenenbaums for like a month. I don't think we ever returned the movie.
