Blues Brothers
Oh yes :) How could I forget considering the amount of times I watched it when I was younger. I haven't seen it for ages - is it available on DVD?
Nowadays: A Zed and two noughts.
 
In credibility order:

Un Chien Andalou (strange student habit)
Life of Brian, Holy Grail (teenage obsession)
Shrek - just happened to be on on various occasions
Mary Poppins and various Disney films (when I was a kid)
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (always on TV)
Must be some James Bond films I've seen a few times due to them being on tv too much.

Mind's gone blank but there must be loads more.
 
oh - & "the good the bad & the ugly" about 40 times, & "witch-finder general" about 100 times. also "if..." about 30. & "pat garrett & billy the kid" more times than i care to think about. & "the masque of the red death" so often i has to replace the fucking video.
 
Must have seen Spinal Tap over 15 times, easily
... and the Big Lebowski is always watchable, and sadly i have seen The Rock many times because i was young when it came out on video, and has some corking lines ("You are on a need to know basis and you don't need to know" :D )

also seen The Blues Brothers alot, and of course Terminator Two
 
black hawk down ,saving private ryan ,gladiator and when we were soldiers.
Not through choice either good films but 10 times they start to bore .

must be great escape and wizard of oz though .
 
I watch most films I like at least three times each, but I must've watched Gattacca at least 20 times, and I must have sat in front of Memento with a notepad for more hours than is remotely healthy. But there's so much depth to it, damnit!

Action films often get watched again, but usually left as wallpaper whilst I do something more interesting. But my core favourite films get watched again and again and again, cos I'm as sad loser :D
 
fistful of dollars
up pompeii
carry on don't lose your head
dirty harry
magnum force
terminator 2
name of the rose
the duellists
salo
masque of the red death
day at the races
night at the opera
pulp fiction
 
Too too many to count.
Pretty much a lifetime of insomnia has meant sitting up at night re watching all my favourite things.

Probably the most of all though were The Wizard of Oz and Mary Poppins as my sister and I would watch them both, every single Saturday morning for about 10 plus years :D
Mum and dad made sure we knew how to use the video machine from a very young age so they could lie in :cool:

3 days I held the family hostage watching it on repeat.

"turn that off and the whole house goes up"

:mad:

1st Brazil - hard to know now how many times ive watched it but I'd guess in the 70s
2nd The Third Man - taped off the TV i was obsessed with this film and can still hapilly sit down with it...probably somewhere around 50 times
3rd Blues Brothers and Spinal Tap - in the 30s for sure
Then lots already mentioned in the thread, seen between 10 and 20 times...its funny how certain films come up again and again on this list

nowadays it takes a lot of will power to sit down and watch any film, or TV even.
 
Blues Brothers
The Wanderers
A Room for Romeo Brass
Jaws
One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest
Pulp Fiction
La Haine
 
My Life as a Dog
I love that film! You watch the beginning and think it's going to be the typical miserable childhood/depressing grief-fest sort of thing, then it opens up as they enter the countryside and encounter all those eccentric characters (the boxing tomboy, the d.i.y. UFO at the barn, the uncle playing old 78s over and over again in the garden, the reclusive old neighbour who spends all day obsessively hammering nails into his roof with no discernible gain, the randy old uncle(?) who keeps a stash of old underwear ads under his mattress and demands him to read them out loud when nobody's looking, etc.) And the symbolic connection between his lost dog and Laika the dog out in space... Lovely film. :)
