      "The world is changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was is lost, for none now live who remember it. "

      Queue the goosebumps, we’re in for a hell of a ride.

      That one is probably up there for me when it comes to total watch time (and we combine all 3 movies).

      I’ve seen all 3 in the theatric release initially and after that I’ve watched through the extended editions 2 times. That’s like 30h+ at least.

        I rewatch The Hobbit trilogy and LOTR (both extended) every year with my wife. I would prefer just watching a fan cut of the hobbit as I don’t think those are very good, but my wife likes them and a happy wife is a happy life.

        So I think I have seen LOTR at least 8 or 9 times and hobbit maybe 4 times.

        That still doesn’t come close to a Swanlake cartoon movie that I obsessively watched 4 times a day when I was around 5 or 6. My parents insist I must have watched it well over 100 times.

        Same, except I snatched up both the theater and extended the minute they came out and have watched through them all numerous times. As well as now watched a lot of reaction videos for them, which I guess counts too. It’s fun to reexperience the first time through someone else’s eyes.

    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.

        Some 20 years ago it was kind of an in-joke between a few friends and I that whenever people were coming over, we’d be in the middle of watch top gun. I don’t remember how it started.

    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.

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

      It’s my goto movie to put on when I’m sick. Can pass in and out of consciousness and you still kinda know what’s going on.

    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.

          I’m trying to say that that movie got popular online years ago and is still associated strongly with internet piracy culture!

            Haha, then I guess I have been on the internet for a long time.

            I remember downloading mp3s with Kazaa and it would take all night, sometimes days. Downloading videos in the shittiest quality was a month long endevour. But that was way before that movie released. I actually don’t remember when I saw it the first time or how and where.
