Movies with the most replayability?

Certain movies are excellent movies, but aren't terrific for re-watching. Certain movies are just good, but remain good every time you watch them. Action movies and Comedies more so than others. I'm curious what are a few of your favorite movies in terms of rewatchability?


Black Hawk Down
Troy
The Matrix
Anchorman


Whatcha got?
 
None of the shit you listed, they all suck.
And The Matrix is way out of touch on the tech and way too on topic with humanity being subjugated.


My picks would be Star Wars, the first 3.
 
The really clever mysteries or movies with a twist are good for one rewatch (e.g. Shutter Island). The less clever ones who throw a curveball with little to no clues aren't really worth watching again.

Instead of naming movies, how about we talk about what makes a movie rewatchable?

I'd say that a movie experience is worth repeating if

1) you think you can get something more out of it this time
- find the clues
- notice more details
- appreciate some context better

2) the movie triggers an emotion that you want to experience again
- inspirational, sad, happy, etc

3) if it has been so long that it will feel like a new experience and you know it will be a good one
 
LOTR
Holy Grail (and the classic comedies - including Spinal Tap)
Woodstock (lots of listening)
Victor/Victoria

I've just watched Major League a few dozen times and I'm impressed with how rewatchable it is
