Doesn't matter how often you see scenes like ride of the rohirrim, they remain just as epic as they were the first time.

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I watched that movie stoned off my ass and with the catchphrases the characters do, I thought I was in a time loop. 10/10

Also adding Shawn of the Dead/anything Edgar Wright

Everything Everywhere All at Once, Interstellar, Fight Club, Arrival, The Sixth Sense, Primer. I'm sure I could go on but all of those are great on a rewatch.

Donnie Darko

Fight Club

Pulp Fiction

All three of those make much more sense the second time around.

In general, though, that's a matter of personal preference. I will never turn down Young Frankenstein, The Blues Brothers, Blazing Saddles, Groundhog Day, or The Princess Bride.

Matrix. I've watched the trilogy god knows how many times, I still find it entertaining.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The first one is the best and one I enjoy rewatching.

Darren Aronofsky's Pi. I've watched 3 times, each separated by a decent amount of time, and I think the third was my favourite.

Its short runtime (84 mins) is I suspect a major factor in this. Nowadays it's almost like rewatching a favourite episode of a beloved Sci-Fi.

The Back to the Future trilogy is good for a re-view.

I pick up something new almost every time I watch Memento.

Primer or really any good time travel movie. For Primer, you pretty much have to re-watch out to make sense of what is going on. Highly recommended though!

Weekend At Bernie's.

Hmm, I rewatch almost anything, especially comedy movies like White Chicks and Shrek 1 and 2 lol.

I'd recommend the Guardians of The Galaxy trilogy or Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy.

Also LOTR movies, but those were already recommended.
