Well, I support Star Wars all the way, I've seen those many many many times. I also support Shawshank, another movie that I can always just watch, whenever it happens to be on TV. Princess Bride is another good one, BUT I've got to be in the mood, really, to watch it.


Missing is The Goonies, Scott Pilgrim Vs The World, Red Belt, and Batman Dark Night.
 
Without Scarface or Fight Club this list is void!
 
Jeremiah Johnson.

"Where you headed?" "Same place you are, Jeremiah: hell, in the end."

Great dialogue and beautiful scenery.
 
I'd add The Magnificent Seven, Animal House and The Dirty Dozen.

I've watched Titanic, Star Wars (my fave as a kid!!!), Shawshank, Grease, and Goodfellas several times over. The others that I can watch anytime are the Color of Money and Nobody's Fool, both with Paul Newman. And just about anything with Eddie Murphy before 1990.

Probably should add Alien, Aliens and Predator to that list.
 
If our sole criteria here is re-watchable, I'd add;

The Devil at Four O'Clock
Safety not Guaranteed
The Enemy Below
Memphis Belle (Matthew Modine version)
The Station Agent
Breaker Morant

Is there a Memphis Belle other than the Matthew Modine version?

I thought there was an earlier version. Perhaps not, then. I didn't research it before posting.
 
tough to rank this

i've seen a lot "important" or famous movies

but the ones i keep watching over and over are seldom critically acclaimed and more just the ones i get a kick out of seeing
 
Top Gun
 
I always have time for:

Patton
Dirty Harry
Bourne Identity
The Quick and the Dead
Tombstone
 
I agree with Pulp Fiction and The Notebook. It always seems like I notice something new with each viewing.
