has to be old bud spencer and terrence hill movies, pretty popular in germany. I know there is a couple of them, but they are all pretty much the same anyway. ;-)
Honestly it might be Finding Nemo. I think it was the first DVD we had and my younger sister was obsessed with it, so I'd watch it a lot with her. Things I'd watch at my own accord it's probably LOTR or Harry Potter though.
Aliens
Predestination. Sarah Snook is just incredible.
"Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel" (Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella). It runs at least a dozen times around each Christmas since I was a kid, and is part of the usual Christmas habits.
Smiley Face. Great Anna Farris stoner flick!
- The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie
- Mulholland Drive
- Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
I know it has to be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon because it's the only movie I ever watched enough to literally wear out the tape when I only had it on VHS. There were times in high school I would just play it on repeat all day.
Dodgeball
Robocop.
Thought it might be the Matrix, but then I remember that when my parents separated we only had one tape at my moms, Robocop, and no like movie channels. I was rewatching it like crazy.
For a while, it was weirdly "Long Kiss Goodnight". It was getting heavy rotation on TV during my high-school exams, and improbaly watched it 15 times over the few weeks I was meant to be studying.
But now, probably LOTR extended edition, which I've seen every year since it came out, at my friend's annual birthday celebrations.
Rogue One
The Martian.
It's my go-to when I just want something to watch.
Interstate 60
graveyard of the fireflies.
i don't usually rewatch, but if the plane has it, i challenge myself. again. and again.
this time, i won't cry
I have a similar relationship with "Dancer in the Dark" whenever I get around to it. I always cry...

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.
I have played Wonka multiple times a day, every day at my house since it released for streaming.
All of these movies my family sits down and watches at least once a year:
Harry Potter series.. All of them.
LoTR/ Hobbit.. All of them.
Paul
Strictly Ballroom
Princess Bride
Music Man 1962 version
Court Jester 1955 with Danny Kaye
