Taking inspiration from the Ben-Hur thread where TrekMD commented,

This is one movie I do not get tired of watching.

... comes this new thread.

It's not a 'Your favourite movies' or even 'Your most viewed movies' thread but something slightly different from that. For instance, I very much enjoyed viewing the likes of Indiana Jones and Temple of Doom, Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, The Shining, Educating Rita, Letter to Brezhnev, When We Were Kings, The Graduate, Boyz in the Hood, The Silence of the Lambs, The Deer Hunter, Scarface and the movie documentary Senna but as much as I enjoyed them I don't feel as though I'd want to view them many times over in the years to come.

Movies that I've viewed many times that I feel confident I'll be viewing many times more over the coming years include,

Ben-Hur
Blade Runner
The Blues Brothers
The Bridge on the River Kwai
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
Casino
The Damned United
The Dark Knight
Die Hard
Downfall
E.T. The Extra Terrestrial
Gladiator
The Godfather
The Godfather Part. II
Goldfinger
Goodfellas
Gremlins
Jaws
The Jungle Book
Lawrence of Arabia
Life of Brian
The Long Good Friday
Micro Men
On the Waterfront
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
Philadelphia
Raiders of the Lost Ark
The Shawshank Redemption
Stand By Me
Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope
Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars Episode V: Return of the Jedi
Superman
Superman II
Taxi Driver
The Terminator
Zulu

The films in this list are there either because I think they're great films or I have serious nostalgia for them.  For some it'll be for both reasons.  All done without looking at my collection of films and not in any order.....

Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Blade Runner
Cinema Paradiso
La Finestra di Fronte
Raging Bull
Ronin
Rio Bravo
Cannonball Run
Groundhog Day
Matrix
Alien
Aliens
Predator
Lost in Translation
Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter... and Spring
Serenity
The Black Hole
The Last StarFighter
Back to the Future
Ghostbusters
Friday Night Lights
Von Ryan's Express
Infernal Affairs
I'll happily watch and rewatch Eastwood's spaghetti westerns and I'm also going to tag DOOM on, for it's shear ability to make me select it when I want to watch some cool action trash, and Dredd - yes it's new but it gives me that same feeling as DOOM.

The Hunt for Red October

Good call. As good a movie as it undoubtedly is (Connery's Scottish Ukranian accent aside!) I still prefer the novel.

Jurassic Park

Special effects aside, I've never 'got' for why folk enjoy this movie. I've tried watching it twice and fell asleep both times!

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Star Trek VI:  The Undiscovered Country
Star Trek First Contact
Star Trek (2009)

Who'd have thunk it!

Tootsie

I've never seen this movie but keep meaning to sometime.

You have to like dinosaurs to enjoy Jurassic Park.  If you've never been interested, then it probably won't appeal to you.  The book is even better than the movie.  I can't believe you've fallen asleep watching it!  LOL

I did also include the Star Wars movies, you know.  The original ones!  ;)

You should watch Tootsie if you haven't seen it yet.  Dusting Hoffman does a superb job!

I did notice but to acknowledge that would have lessened the amusement value of my post!

Kung Pow: Enter the Fist. It's basically a parody of old kung fu films, with about half of the movie being taken from some other old kung fu movie, and the other half being entirely original. You might not think it SOUNDS like a great movie, given how many terrible parodies there are these days like "Scary/Epic/What Have You Movie", but this one is actually good. Really. I promise. Seriously, I must have watched it about four time since it came out, and I still think I could fit another four viewings into my life.

Kung Pow: Enter the Fist.

I just Googled 'enter the fist' but it's probably best I don't mention what kind of search results appeared...  :P
