We've all got movies (or films, depending on your vocabulary!) that we watch again and again - last night I watched This is Spinal Tap for the umpteenth time, remastered 41st anniversary version of it at the King Street Cinema in Ipswich.
That, alongside the original Star Wars trilogy, and Zoolander, are probably my most watched.

I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.

Having seen all of the other posts, I would definitely add Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Shawshank Redemption and Escape To Victory to my most watched list.
So many great films in this thread!

Ferris Bueller's Day Off is a great film, but many years ago I came to the realisation that Ferris is a selfish prick and a terrible friend, and that did tarnish it a bit for me.

But how many times have you watched Under the Cherry Moon?
Ahhh yeah, well that’s awkward, you know, sometimes films make a big enough impact once, and we will always have the annual wrecka stow day, as a reminder of the ….best bits.

Sorry Dubbers, only got as far as the word movie and had to go for a long lie down...could you summarise the thread for me please? #feelingsoletdown
Well goodness me, anarchobankster, I didn't expect to find you sipping an espresso in the large comfy seats at the back of the most bourgeois socialists in town subtitled foreign film club with your nose in the air as high as mine is. Nipping out for a Gitanes at the interval if you want to join me to discuss existentialism.
Righto Dubs - mine's a mish-mash of others on here.
Jaws - into triple digits - can quote the script all the way through. "What's your name again?", "Chrissie", "Where are we going?", "Swimming!".
Goodfellas - First saw it aged 17 in Leicester Square Empire in 1991. See it at least once a year. There are bits you miss.
The Empire Strikes Back - my favourite of the original trilogy (although Episode 4 A New Hope is very good as well). Seen it over 200 times.
Local Hero - everyone should see it at least once. Best British film of the 1980's and it's up against some good ones (Gregory's Girl by the same director, Bill Forsyth). Great soundtrack by Mark Knopfler.
Dirty Harry - My dad first saw it at the Cramphorn Theatre in Chelmsford in 1972. It's our pre-or post-Christmas treat together. Screw National Lampoons or that Culkin thing. This is a Christmas movie in our household. Scorpio the killer was based on the Zodiac killer then (as now) not caught by SFPD.
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest - Jack Nicholson's best movie. Worth revisiting just for Louise Fletcher's inner rage and nastiness as Nurse Ratched. Only about four of the 'inmates' were actually certifiable and the bloke who constantly dances in the film wasn't one of them.
Apocalypse Now - I never thought I'd revisit this again and again as it's not really a film you should go back to once seen. Worth it for Robert Duvall's famously weird Colonel Kilgore and Martin Sheen's wide-eyed wonderment at the scenes he witnesses on that boat.
There's Something About Mary - you want a cheap laugh, a bit of easy entertainment, you've got it here. From spunk in hair, to dogs on speed, to Lee Evans pratfalls, this made oi laugh for years.
The Bourne Trilogy - what James Bond wishes it was. Paul Greengrass doesn't mess about with the action and they're constantly repeated on ITV4/X/Dave whatever. My favourite modern movie collection. Car chases, realistic hand-to-hand combat that makes you wince and a hero who is monosyllabic to the point that it's impressive.
There's a few others: The Shawshank Redemption but even I'm tiring of the nonsensically romantic ending. Back to the Future - the first one's still the best. I didn't think much of the Wild West one. The Godfather - but it's not even Coppola's best film. The French Connection - still a great film, superbly acted. A few horror ones: The Witch, The Conjuring, The Exorcist, Get Out, Saw. But you don't set out to rewatch them.

We all have our standards.

Some of us are trying to watch the film (whilst sipping our pastis, naturellement).

The original Star Wars trilogy with what I still call Star Wars (ep 4) as my favourite. Saw it at the cinema in ‘77 and it blew my 9 year old mind
Also - You Only Live Twice and most other Bond movies, Bladerunner, Harry Potter films and LOTR trilogy
You're 4 or 5 years older than me. First film I ever saw at the cinema was Empire Strikes Back. So things like the iconic ATATs, "No, I am your Father" etc. were the first things I saw on a cinema screen. No wonder I was hooked!
Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Maybe it’s because I took a rather beautiful young lady to see it in 1986 but I have fond memories of it. The soundtrack obviously helps. Love the ending with him in heaven singing Mountains, if I remember correctly. It’s certainly better than Graffiti Bridge 😂
Never seen it since. Don’t think it’s available on any platform.
