Lord of the Rings.
That one is probably up there for me when it comes to total watch time (and we combine all 3 movies).
I’ve seen all 3 in the theatric release initially and after that I’ve watched through the extended editions 2 times. That’s like 30h+ at least.
Same, except I snatched up both the theater and extended the minute they came out and have watched through them all numerous times. As well as now watched a lot of reaction videos for them, which I guess counts too. It’s fun to reexperience the first time through someone else’s eyes.
"The world is changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was is lost, for none now live who remember it. "
Queue the goosebumps, we’re in for a hell of a ride.
The Princess Bride. It’s such a fun adventure that still holds up really well today.
INCONCEIVABLE!
That word, I do not think it means what you think it means.
Another entry for me would be “Robin Hood (1973)”. I haven’t rewatched it in a long time, but as kids we (my brother and me) wanted to watch that movie over and over again. I’ve seen it more than ten times at least.
Oooodelolly!
Top Gun. With all combinations of subtitles and dubs available.
Don’t ask.

Some 20 years ago it was kind of an in-joke between a few friends and I that whenever people were coming over, we’d be in the middle of watching top gun. I don’t remember how it started.
Probably “The Man from Earth”. Just such a good and well told story.
I loved that movie. DON’T watch the sequel. Don’t do it.
It’s too late for me, but I wholeheartedly agree.
You’ve been on the internet for a while, yeah?
Are you trying to say I’m old?
I’m trying to say that that movie got popular online years ago and is still associated strongly with internet piracy culture!
Haha, then I guess I have been on the internet for a long time.
I remember downloading mp3s with Kazaa and it would take all night, sometimes days. Downloading videos in the shittiest quality was a month long endevour. But that was way before that movie released. I actually don’t remember when I saw it the first time or how and where.
saving private ryan, just such a good movie. and a Christmas story every year
Office Space. The Usual Suspects used to be on TV all the time back in the day and is probably a close second.
Probably Chevy Chase’s Christmas Vacation since it has been tradition every holiday season.
As a kid, Rescuer’s Down Under or The Paper Brigade was re-watched a lot.
Apart from that, it’s a close tie for:
- The Matrix
- Sin City
- The Chronicles of Riddick
- Terminator 2
- The Sandlot
- I, Robot
- Joe Dirt
Just good replay value.
Star Wars
The Matrix
Kill BillProbably my top 3. Airplane!
Not completely by my own choice, but I feel like I’ve seen National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation - at least in part - once or more per holiday season since it was released.
The same is true of Elf, but obviously that movie is quite a bit more recent.
For movies I’ve watched the most by my own choice, it’s probably the Kill Bills or Inglorious Basterds, but those have got to be way behind in raw count. Goonies and the Back to the Future series probably have honorable mentions because of how long they’ve been around and continue to be a fun watch.
Shit, I was gonna say three way tie between Spirited Away, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and 21 Jump Street, but if I count what I’ve watched at school then National Treasure wins lol
Good call! I’m not big on rewatching movies, but I definitely see Christmas Story, Elf, and Christmas Vacation every year, so I’ve probably seen A Christmas Story more than any other movie in the past 40 years.
Runner up might be having Disney’s Robin Hood on repeat when I was about 6. Oooda-lolly!
Airplane! And Star Trek the Wrath of Khan.
Hackers
Ever? Probably Return of the Jedi
Maybe Revenge of the Sith, but I’m pretty sure it’s Return of the Jedi
Home Alone. It was one of my favorite movies as a kid. I don’t really rewatch movies anymore. There is so much content out there that I haven’t watched, I would rather see something new than just rewatch something that I’ve already seen.
The Big Lebowski
