movies that need to be taken off the list the wizard of oz the sound of music the lord of the rings series, only the original i can actually sit through and watch harry potter series titanic and the notebook
Feels odd to nominate a movie I have never seen, but I think about all the midnight showings when people dressed up, shouted out lines from the movie, threw rice, etc. Seems from a multiple viewings POV it would have to be up there. Rocky Horror Picture Show. A few movies I have seen that seem to deserve to be on this list: Miracle on 34th Street White Christmas Lawrence of Arabia Hoosiers Field of Dreams Young Frankenstein
Out of all the dam chick flick movies my gf makes me watch, the notebook and mean girls are the better ones. I don't mind watching Rachel McAdams at all
I was going to complain about Young Frankenstein too.. Movies not on their list (and I'm sure I am leaving out a TON): Young Frankenstein Aliens The Jerk Spiderman 2 Holy Grail Life of Brian Avatar Raiders of the Lost Ark Big Trouble in Little China Iron Monkey Crouching Tiger Little Dragon Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Trading Places The Whole Nine Yards Fletch Ghostbusters 5th Element Tremors Empire Strikes Back Blade Talladega Nights A Few Good Men Top Gun Christmas Story Gravity Zombieland The Crow Highlander Pitch Perfect Airplane! Dumb and Dumber Unforgiven Tombstone The Quick and the Dead Austin Powers - I.M.o.M. Independence Day Jurassic Park The Sting Jaws (How was JAWS not on this list??) The Shining Pirate of the Caribbean Sherlock Holmes (RDJ version) And on and on.. All of these, I will watch them if I see them on. Doesn't even matter how many times I have seen them. Yes, their list has SOME good re-watchable movies (But I would watch the ones on my list above most on their list anyway), but several complete misses. Here's the ones which I would NEVER put on such a list: Wizard of Oz Sound of Music Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Saw them, liked them, never re-watched them at all) Titanic (yeah I know a ton of little girls watched it over and over, but it's not a drop-everything-and-watch movie for me) Casablanca (again, great movie, but how many times does it have to be re-watched?) The Notebook (Seriously?) Goodfellas (not personally into gangster movies at all) Pride and Prejudice (??) Caddyshack (it REALLY has not held up well over the years, it's borderline unwatchable now) Star Trek (Do they mean that first terrible movie from like '79? Awful movie.. now replace it with Wrath of Khan and I'm on board)
Two movies that have been replayed every year since time began. Hard to not include them on any list of re-watchable movies. Especially since they are also on most "greatest moves of all time" lists.
That was the same thing I was thinking about Wizard of the Oz. They have played it every year for a reason, and the reasoning being some people like my grandma will watch it every time. Two movies that would HAVE to be on my list would be Dazed and Confused and Friday. Throw in Evil Dead 2 also.
I'd say Star Wars Airplane Young Frankenstein The Deer Hunter (I'm mesmerized every time its on TV) Shawshank Redemption The Blues Brothers Empire Strikes Back The Goonies and of course my all-time Go-To..
Star Wars probably equals the whole OT, or just Empire Strikes Back. Wizard of Oz and Sound of Music? Gone with the Wind? Who can actually sit there rewatching those? Ben-Hur, Lawrence of Arabia, The Ten Commandments not there? No Terminator: Judgement Day? No Aliens? No The Dark Knight? Total Recall? Robocop? Predator? Starship Troopers? Batman(1989)? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? A Christmas Story might be the most watched movie ever lol..
I do not really like to rewatch a movie. Since I mostly like movies which are great as a result of the plot it is sort of less enjoyable to re-watch them. So for me it are mostly movies I just find Funny. For me "Snatch" is high on that list. Everytime I watch it I just keep laughing. "The whole nine yards" is also a movie that I do not mind to watch several times. the LOTR movies are also movies that I watched several times and still enjoy.
Dazed and Confused They Live Back to the Future 1&2 (100% should have been on that list) Office Space T2 Mississippi Burning Die Hard Naked Gun Runaway Jury The Departed Casino Lean on Me Those 13 would be on my personal list plus a few on theirs. Matrix should be higher in my opinion.
That list sucks...they just picked the "greats". Re-watchable movies typically include comedies...re-watching a 3 hour serious movie is not a fun thing to do.
