Watch it Over and Over

[Zack Miller]

Darn. I keep adding more.

Rules? We don’t need no stinking rules.

Since I’m not the only one who picked more than one film, it seems the problem may be with the unwarranted assumption you made in the discussion thread, i.e., that people only have one movie they watch over and over again.

What's the one movie that you can basically watch over and over?

Why would someone ask for one and expect many? If someone says "what is the one tobacco you really want" do you just naturally list 30 or do you provide the one? :D

I do not have just one. That’s the point. I suspect the same is true with the many others who posted multiple films. It’s like asking who is the one parent or one child you love. Those who may love their parents or children equally won’t be able to respond as you would like.

A Fish Called Wanda

Yes that's a great movie! I like Fierce Creatures as well.

Those are the greatest for me: John Lurie‘s „Stranger than paradise“, „2001 A Space Odyssey“, Andrei Tarkowski‘s „Solaris“, Bertrand Tavernier‘s „Coup de torchons“/ „Der Saustall“ with Philippe Noiret and Isabelle Huppert, Fellinis „La Dolce Vita“ and any of Jean Luc Godard, who died too soon.

There are too many to name that I've watched multiple times...but none that I would watch "over and over".

Typically I need a minimum of a year, usually longer, between viewings...even for the ones I like the most.

Chinatown

Shame it took till page 4 for this masterpiece to be mentioned...definitely one of the greatest movies ever made imo.

Jamie Lee Curtis had, or maybe still has, some nice legs.

Aliens, Empire, Young Guns, The Christmas Story, It’s a Wonderful Life and The Nightmare Before Christmas.

3 movies on VHS I grew up with that I would never turn off or change the channel on - Big Trouble in Little China, Commando, Enter The Dragon.

Absolutely!

The original The Flight of the Phoenix (1965) starring real-life pilot Jimmy Stewart. The engine-starting scene toward the end always puts a lump in my throat.

"Support Your Local Sheriff" James Garner, Jack Elam and Walter Brennan at their finest.

Liked the other Support with that cast as well

Only one? I can handle that only if you define "over and over." I really do want to play within your rules.

I would, because THAT'S my reality. Sure there are people who smoke only one or two blends. I did that for years. But that's no longer true. These days I cycle through dozens of blends. So when presented with any form of "one choice" I ignore it because that's just not my reality. If that were ever imposed on me I'd just skip the inevitable getting bored and resentful part and jump to "no thanks".
I was monogamous in my marriages. Other than that, variety is the spice of life.

Basically “bye Forrest! I’ll be back to marry you after I’m a single mom with AIDS”

Great movie though.
