Cineastes and casual viewers alike possess that special film, a cinematic gem that can be savored time and again without losing its charm. Whether it’s a nostalgia-infused childhood favorite, a time-honored classic, or a contemporary masterpiece that resonates deeply, these cinematic companions never fail to entertain and delight.
A user asked the forum, “What is that movie you never get tired of watching?”. Here are some responses he got!
THE FIRST MATRIX
“I did a rewatch of all four recently. I’ve seen the first one so many times I can practically quote every line. It’s probably my favorite movie ever.”
SHREK
“The jokes and music selection never seem to get old, though I watch it in the Spanish version (Latin America).”
HARRY POTTER
“Am I the only one who finds comfort in Harry Potter even though I’m grown?”
STAND BY ME
“Just watched this last night! I’d forgotten how much I loved it. Based on my grandmother’s stories about my grandpa when he was younger, I always picture him as Chris.”
LORD OF RINGS
“Each time I watch the trilogy, I enjoy it for different reasons. Sometimes, the characters, others the plot. Sometimes, I like seeing a younger version of the actors– this almost all-star cast thrown together almost two decades ago.
Then, there’s music. Can’t get enough of that—the fights, of course. Sometimes, I like the vibes, how things are when the characters are in some place, like the Shire, or when things get tense in a cave. I’ve often rewound (is that still a term? 😀 ) the video so I can listen to more Elvish.
A few times, I just like to see the bromance or character development. Whether Gimli x Legolas, Sam x Frodo, or Sam’s glow-up. But I think most of all; I enjoy watching it to remember all the other times I’ve watched it with someone I care about who may not be with me anymore.”
THE SOUND OF MUSIC
“You know what? That movie was on TV when I was a kid—I hated it—never watched it once I got out of the house. Watched it in my 30’s and just loved it. Great movie.”
SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION
“Shawshank Redemption, if it’s on TV, I’ve watched it over 100 times by now.”
A CHRISTMAS STORY
“I love the 24-hour marathon on Christmas Eve. I will watch it beginning to end at least 3x during those 24 hours.”
THE MUMMY
“The Mummy. The original one with our lord and savior, Brendan.”
ALMOST FAMOUS
“I’ve said “it’s all happening” at least once a month for the last 15 years.”
AIRPLANE
“Each time I see it, I find something I missed.”
FORREST GUMP
“Forrest Gump, mainly because it’s the life I would have liked.”
TITANIC
“Honestly, Titanic. I probably watch it 3x a year. I like it so much because it’s a tragic story, but I love Kate & Leo.”
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
“Beauty and the Beast, cartoon version. Most amazing movie every time.”
THE IRON GIANT
“So much good about this movie.”
MONTY PYTHON HOLY GRAIL
“Monty Python Holy Grail! I can watch it back to back. Some with Life of Brian.”
