Donnie Darko, Fight Club, and Fear in Loathing in Las Vegas are all movies I wish I never had to stop watching. I go through circles of watching Donnie Darko everynight for about a month, then I'll watch Fight Club and then Fear and Loathing, then back to Donnie darko.

I don't like many movies. But I do enjoy watching certain ones over and over! They seem better that way.
The Godfathers....1-3 Saturday Night Fever Grease Urban Cowboy Star Wars...1-3 Sargent York Wizard of Oz The Dead Zone Close Encounters of the Third Kind That Thing You Do A Hard Day's Night Tootsie The Lord of the Rings The Commitments Gee that's a lot for someone who doesn't like movies! I bet there's more too!

I have to watch the Labyrinth. It's like a yearly undertaking. Labyrinth and Princess Bride. I just rewatched Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence again as well. Kinda weird seeing David Bowie at various NZ locations. VERY good movie though. Will have to start foisting it on people, once I've persuaded them to read Dune. read dune and watch merry christmas mr lawrence.

My friend has a very bad (although most of the time its good coz i like the movies) habit of watching a movie over and over for like 3 months and then moving on, and since i spend a lot of time at his house it means im watching them... he has been on Aliens 3 since the big 10 dvd box came out, and mainly he just plays the bits with Dillon in them and if you speak down at Dillon or sometimes if you speak at all he gets angry (hahaha yeah theres a fun game, get stoned and try not laughing at Dillons groin and the face he makes during that scene )... he also went through Conan (which got very tedious, especially when he started reciting prayers to Crom in the little times we WERENT watching it) and Last of the Mohicans for a little bit, now that Last Samurais out he'll be onto that soon Goody
i could repeatedly watch the Rocky's, GoNY, Braveheart, The Matrix's, LotR, Last Samurai, basically every dvd i own. i guess its hard to NOT watch a lot of movies over and over again when all you seem to do is watch movies Labyrinth and Fear and Loathing are more things i put on for special occasions rather than watch repeatedly on my own..

I just got introduced to "Interview" and loved it. Did you know that "Queen of the Damned" got a higher rating? Ok, a few others. Galaxy Quest Finding Nemo (watched it 6 times in one night once) Dr. Stranglove A Fish Called Wanda Star Trek Movies (only the even ones excluding the last one) Cookies Fortune (I really need to buy this one) Well, that's a lot. I wonder if I could watch all of them in one day?

I agree with all you Pythonophiles! Those two are the only films (besides Memento) which I've got on DVD which I can watch over and over. I commend your taste!
I can also watch 'Bridget Jones' Diary' for some reason. I know they're not films, but I can watch taped-from-TV Seinfeld and Simpsons over and over, and also Eddie Izzard stand-up...

I just remembered another christmas movie that I have to watch every year: Scrooged with Bill Murray because Bill Murray is wonderful. Quote:
As for Monty Python and the Holy Grail and A Fish Called Wanda, they have a special significance for me, because when my now step-dad was courting my mother, the first thing he got me was Grail and the first thing he got my mother was Wanda. Sniff. Tear. Anyways, I could watch anything by Christopher Guest CONSTANTLY!!! We watched Waiting for Guffman last night and I was thrilled.
