I've definitely seen The Prestige (2006) the most in my adult life, it was my taste-barometer when showing a new friend or date when I was in my 20s.

But we had the The Mummy (1999) recorded from TV on a VHS growing up and I recked that shit. I probably watched that film 30-40 times, between childhood days off sick and rewatching intermitently in adulthood.

Honourable mention to Love Actually; thanks mum.

For me, it's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990). I was a huge TMNT fan, and I wrecked that tape by watching it so many times.

[-] nevernevermore@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

shell yeah, did you get around the sequels?

[-] NotTheOnlyGamer@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Yup. I even saw TMNT 3 in theaters - I don't get the hate it's earned.

I've probably seen LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring at least 20-30 times. I'm guessing 15 or so for two towers, and 10 for ROTK.

But FOTR is the perfect movie and I could watch it again and again on repeat if I had to.

The Room actually. I feel obligated to show it to everyone, particularly with Rifftrax commentary.

[-] ripcord@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

You know. I guess the Rifftrax versions of Street Fighter 2 and Super Mario Bros. are way up on my list for that same reason.

And the Ice Cream Bunny.

The Blues Brothers is one of my all time favorite movies. I got some beefy speakers and the neighbours have been enjoying this movie with me many times.

Somewhat unusually I enjoy BB 2000 as well, it would be unfair to expect it to be as good but it's a nice movie, except for the ridiculous zombie playoff part.

The Blues Brothers?...They still owe you money, fool.

Groundhog Day (somewhat ironically) and Ferris Bueller's Day Off

[-] nevernevermore@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I think I've watched Jaws 30-40 times. I used to know it word for word.

[-] nevernevermore@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

The Goonies and Pump Up the Volume followed closely by Indiana Jones (1&3) and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.

[-] nevernevermore@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

my partner introduced me to the goonies for the first time a couple years ago and I've seen it 3 or 4 more times since, it's an awesome film

Hard to say between The Shawshank Redemption or The Princess Bride.

[-] EmptyRadar@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

The Lost Boys, cheesy vampire movie from the '80s. I used to watch it every night when I was a kid, and I still watch it every now and then. I've probably seen it hundreds of times.

By choice? Monty Python and the Holy Grail or Fired Up. I watched them both roughly monthly for a half a decade and could recite them both nearly line for line in high school.

Under duress? Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmaron. It was the only movie in my dad's SUV for about a decade and I've probably seen that movie more times than literally anything else because of that.
