Never Gets Old.
What movie never gets old, you could watch it 100 times and not be bored.
I know some people cant do this, i'm just thinking as a generalization. Mine is: Goodfellas. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xQzXi1oecz...81990%2529.jpg I'm sorry if this thread already exists. |
Re: Never Gets Old.
Mine is probably A Nightmare on Elm Street. I used to suffer from insomnia; strangely, I could only sleep soundly if, every night before bed, I put Elm Street on and watched it/slept to it.
I've seen the whole thing only a few times, but the beginning probably a couple dozen times. Others would include T2: Judgment Day and Inferno. |
Re: Never Gets Old.
Con Air. I've watched this film a 100 times and I'm never bored with it. Just solid fun throughout.

I've practically got it memorized now. Every inch of it pure joy. |
Re: Never Gets Old.
Tough choice... any one of my favorite movies, I suppose. Vertigo I seem to like more each time I watch it.

Re: Never Gets Old.
The Blues Brothers. I think what makes it work is that deep down I know it's not that great a movie so it doesn't ever fail to meet my expectations, thus ensuring it stays re-watchable.
|
Re: Never Gets Old.
Ive never seen blues brothers, i cant get out of my head its a Snl movie
|
Re: Never Gets Old.
To be fair, it's the best SNL movie, though admittedly that's not much of a compliment. But yeah, I've seen it countless times already and will probably watch it countless more.

Re: Never Gets Old.
Donnie Darko - It has been on our filmchannel quite a lot lately and I always watch it then. And I always discover something new about the movie.
The first half of Titanic (Until the ship starts sinking) - My Titanic movie is divided on to dvds, and since the movie is so long it is just easier for me to watch the first half of it. |
Re: Never Gets Old.
Donnie darko is one of my favorite movies
|
Re: Never Gets Old.
pay it forward.:D

Titanic is probably the only movies that I own that I could stand to watch over and over again not because of the romance of it, that is only a small part of why I enjoy this movie so much. The real reason I love this movie the way I do is because it is one of those films that put you in the middle of all the panic and chaos and make you sympathize with what the passengers are going through. Also, when you watch the crew member and you notice what they are doing is wrong with keeping the passengers back behind the gates/ not filling the lifeboats up to their full compacity you realize if they had done at least one thing differently perhaps the loss of life that night may not have been so great but unfortunately it didn't happen that way. |
I could watch Die Hard and The Matrix over and over

Re: Never Gets Old.
One film that never gets old for me is Rabbit Hole, I don't think it's that well known and has Nicole Kidman in it but I think it's a really good, moving film. Nicole is excellent in it and I really need to buy it on DVD, I advise anyone to watch this film :)
|
every time I watch Clockwork Orange (and I've watched it too many times) I get something new from it. and the slang of the movie is so charming I can't help but use it. then people who haven't seen this masterpiece just stare at me like I'm some crazy girl to whom her own language isn't good enough so she creates some sort of fancy-like slang and calls everybody brothers not in the good ol' valley-girl way. but welly-welly-well mates, it's just the way this movie affects me. good thing I don't go around smiling through my teeth and searching for a nice way to express the bit of ultra-violence that everybody has inside, eh? :)

The Blues Brothers (On a mission from God)
Terminator 2 (My favorite of the series) Goodfellas (Actually only watched once, but it's still on my DVR, so I plan to watch again.) Zombieland (One of my favorite Zombie movies) Lone Wolf McQuade (Not sure why many people don't like this movie, favorite with Chuck Norris in it) Law Abiding Citizen (Watching it now) |
Re: Never Gets Old.
Yeah, I would also have to say The Dark Knight.
|
Godfather
Roman Holiday |
Absolutely Terminator 2
|
I never saw this movie yet but I will try later.
|
Re: Never Gets Old.
While they won't appear on most people's top movies list (including my own), I'll have to go with pretty much any comedy with John Candy. If any of these movies are on, I'll usually watch them, no matter how far into the film it is.
Uncle Buck The Great Outdoors Planes, Trains, and Automobiles Stripes Summer Rental |
Re: Never Gets Old.
Mulholland Drive
Die Hard Aliens The Matrix Big Trouble in Little China The Thing And kinda cheating but Arrested Development; I could watch that on repeat for the rest of my life. http://images2.fanpop.com/images/pho...68-415-250.gif "I'm afraid I just blue myself" |
Re: Never Gets Old.
Raiders of the Lost Ark, I always watch it, even on TV

West Side Story is the Classic that Never Grows Old!
To paraphrase the MGM quote: "Unlike other classics, West Side Story grows younger!" |
Re: Never Gets Old.
Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn and Conan

Re: Never Gets Old.
Gravedig.
Blade Runner- I can rewatch this again and again for some reason. The atmosphere and art style is intoxicating and you genuinely feel apart of this dark sci-fi world. Breakfast Club,12 angry men,clerks-films that are mostly in one location are very rewatchable. Lotr trilogy,star wars og trilogy. |
Re: Never Gets Old.
The Boondock Saints
|
Re: Never Gets Old.
Forrest Gump, only watched it on DVD a few times, but on TV, a ****load of times. And I always watch it.
|
The following two movies never get old with me:

Re: Never Gets Old.
Night of the Living Dead is one of my favorites. Wind Chill was pretty great up to a point, and then got stupid. It's still worth watching though. The actors just make you get seriously invested. But be prepared, there's a moment when it starts sucking.
|
Agreed with Pulp fiction. 19 years later, it is still as popular as always and is a very well-known element of popular culture.
I would add the Marx brothers' movies. Their comedic style doesn't get old, maybe because it doesn't rely too much on specific references to their period; their dialogues are as funny in the modern context as they were at the 30s, and their fast-paced non sequitur insanity meets the requirements of the modern audience quite well. |
Here are mine:
War Of The Worlds (1953) Fighter Squadron (1948) Shane (953) http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/8277/wdfp.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us |

I used to watch this movie everyday when I was a kid. I'm not kidding, every time I went to my grandpa's house (which was everyday) I watched Jurassic Park. I know this movie by heart. Every scene, every line, every detail. |
There are a few movies that I will watch again and again, and never tire of.
http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...DlraZNTFcXF1aR http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...YutDERgIUJHy3g and more recently: http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...k0weNQvw1nuGPh I find the characters fascinating. |
Movies I never get tired of re-watching:
MARY POPPINS THE SOUND OF MUSIC YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN GOODFELLAS SCARFACE WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? HIGH ANXIETY A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE (1951) A STAR IS BORN (1954) THE BAND WAGON CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF (1958) CABARET PUNCHLINE BLAZING SADDLES MANHATTAN HANNAH AND HER SISTERS MOMMIE DEAREST ALL ABOUT EVE HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE LOVER COME BACK PILLOW TALK WEST SIDE STORY THE APARTMENT AIRPORT ROAD TRIP DUDE, WHERE'S MY CAR? WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT? RAIN MAN SHAMPOO CHICAGO JERRY MAGUIRE VICTOR/VICTORIA BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S PRETTY IN PINK FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF BACHELOR PARTY YOU'VE GOT MAIL CATCH ME IF YOU CAN |
I think this thread is quite close to that "Movies you have watched most number of times.." we had!
But Shawshank Redemption (around 45 times full watch and countless other times partial watch). Predator. Khosla's Nest. Terminator. Snatch. Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Toy Story series. The Dark Knight series. I watch it infinite number of times. Many times i just play it while working or having dinner. |
