Forest gump,platoon,dumb and dumber and it's a wonderful life
I've seen the Exorcist about 167 times and keeps getting funnier EVERY single time I see it!
Shit, I’ve watched this so many times I’ve forgotten to list it …. Mr. Blandings Builds his Dream House
As with everything, over familiarity breeds contempt. So no one picture is going to be my one and only.
That said, there are a number of films I enjoy revisiting. Here are a few of them.
The General, City Lights, Modern Times, A Night At The Opera, Casablanca, King Of Hearts, Best Years Of Our Lives, Seven Samurai, Ikiru, La Belle et Bete, The Grand Illusion, Sunrise, The Wizard Of Oz, My Man Godfrey, Bringing Up Baby, Strangers On A Train, Nothing Sacred, Battle Ship Potemkin, King Kong, Citizen Kane, The Magnificent Seven, Pale Rider, Tokyo Godfathers, Steamboat Bill Junior, Nosferatu, M, Metropolis, Judgement At Nuremberg, Pat And Mike, Bad Day At Blackrock, It’s A Wonderful Life, Alls Quiet On The Western Front, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Shop Around The Corner, Cheyenne Autumn, Animal Crackers, Rashomon, Floating Weeds, etc, etc.

The original Star Wars trilogy pre Lucas screwups and Disney ruining. The original Indiana Jones trilogy. JCVD's Bloodsport, as cheezy as it is, is still a favourite. Roger Moore James Bond movies. Totall Recall, Conan, Predator, Kindergarten Cop, etc, just because it's fun to impersonate Ahnold (It's not a tumah. At all).

Caan in "Gardens of Stone" is worth a look every now and then. Probably, my opinion only, the best Viet Nam movie ever. Any of Ford's trilogy I can watch once or twice a year. I watch my two favorite Christmas movies each year also, "Three Godfathers" and "Donavan's Reef." "Bad Day at Black Rock" is always worth a viewing. I could list a bunch more including "Monte Walsh", either version as each is different. I can't say that about any other remake. But, I can't think of any one film I could watch "over and over" which I'd define as more than twice a year.
I forgot to include Trading Places and The Producers.

John Carpenter's The Thing.
I have literally watched it many hundreds of times. I have worn it out in every format except laser disc (never owned one).
I can say the same (to a somewhat lesser degree) of;
Alien
Aliens
Bladerunner
Big Trouble in Little China
But with The Thing I don't even have to put in the disc anymore, just close my eyes and visualize...
(white lettering on black)
"A Universal Picture"
and then roll through the whole movie in my mind.
Yes....I know.
