I believe it's either The Blues Brothers or 2001.

I'm afraid they might be a whole bunch of oldies but goodies:

2001: A Space Odyssey.
The Empire Strikes Back.
Miller's Crossing (the third movie written and directed by the Coen brothers, from 1989).
A Bridge Too Far (from 1977, a sprawling, star-studded epic about the Allies and their costly, ill-advised and ultimately unsuccessful Operation Market-Garden in WWII).
A Bout De SoufflΓ©. (Godard's seminal French New Wave cannon blast).
From Russia With Love.
The Spy Who Loved Me.

Summer Wars. And it still tears me up.

As a kid, it was a cartoon - The Little Mermaid. As an adult... It is a cartoon - Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse.

[–] Daerun@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Ben-Hur. Loved it in my youth, when TV still aired this kind of movies regularly, and I absolutely love it and like to review it from time to time. There are others I've watched again lots if times (Star Wars, The Matrix...) but Ben-Hur is number one.

The Princess Bride. It's such a fun adventure that still holds up really well today.

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.

The Matrix. No other movie is even close

[–] arefx@lemmy.ml 0 points 6 days ago

Yup. Insane movie.

Crazy how dog shit all the movies after the first are, though.

[–] lennybird@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

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.

[–] hactar42@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

The Sandlot is such a great film. Even my daughter who doesn't know anything about baseball loves watching it with me. There is no other movie that gives me the same feelings as that. There is no major drama or traumatic incidents. Just kids having fun over the summer.

You know nowadays they would have made the stepdad an alcoholic or animal control would have come and taken Hercules away after they found out he was nice, or some other kind of drama like that. But this movie doesn't do any of that. It's just a fun story about a bunch of kids being kids.

[–] JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 week ago

Office Space. The Usual Suspects used to be on TV all the time back in the day and is probably a close second.

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.
