The big lebowski almost requires rewatching. It just gets funnier and funnier every time, there are so many little details and quotable lines. "Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man."
Thematically, you can watch the film through different lenses. I remember reading an article about the religious undertones - the dude as Buddha, Walter as Yahweh etc. Makes Jesus as a weird little pervert even funnier.

Gattaca. It's just such a well made film.
Groundhog Day, once a year.
Man of steel Batman V Superman UE Zack Snyder's Justice League The Dark Knight Trilogy Inception Interstellar Pulp Fiction Django Unchained
Taking of Pelham 123 is one of the most watchable movies I've seen. The original.
I rewatched Young Guns recently, and besides the fantastic nostalgia rush, I realized that I had only ever seen the edited for TV version
Agree with many others here. Also: Aliens, Terminator 2, True Lies, Bad Boys, The Naked Gun, Top Secret!, Hot Shots: Part Deux, Deadpool 1-3
Heck yeah! Hot shots is so good
The 1993 Super Mario Bros.
As campy and crappy as it is, it never fails to put a smile on my face and make me laugh, that movie rules.
I watch V for Vendetta every November
I have watched SnowPiercer at least 6 times (and yes, I totally belive it is a sequel to Willy Wonka)
Usual Suspects.
Prometheus. Such a great movie!
We must be thinking of different films...
Porch Rosso and some other ghibli movies I guess.
Spaceballs
The Birdcage. Every time it ends, I want to restart it.
Groundhog Day
This is a must watch every day.
And Edge of Tomorrow!
Buckaroo Banzai
Oh man, I watched this a couple weeks ago. It had probably been decades since I last saw it. It was just as awesome/terrible as I remembered.
ITT: Cults and their followers.
Rush Hour The Lion King Kung Pow LotR Harry Potter
Kung Fu Hustle tops kung Pow for me
You're right.
Rush Hour: The Lion King
Kung Pow: LotR
Harry: Potter
Top-tier recommendations, good sir
The Hunt, The Way, Smokey and the Bandit, Clerks, Clerks 2, The Judge, Encanto, Spirited Away, Days of Thunder, Edge of Tomorrow, Nobody, Predator, Real Genius.
Yeah, the last one is oddly popular in my country. No clue why. Must be something in the water.
Down Periscope for sure!
Naked gun and airplane are GOATS
Everyone has about the same answers here, and I agree with many, but I've got a weird one:
Super Size Me
Something about it just compels me. And it always makes me want McDonald's afterwards... I truly struggle to explain why.
"He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
5th Element.
One of, if not the best action flick of all time.
I submit both Crank and Crank 2 as the best, most self-aware action movies of all time.
Shoot em up should be on that list imo
"Alien" (1979) still gets me every time I watch it. The slow build, the pops of horror, the delectable suspense of the Big Chap hunting. I know every scare, every moment of terror, every death by heart... but it still gets my circulatory system going. All other home invasion/haunted house movies can go home, Alien nailed it.
Any Lord of the Rings.
Die Hard and Galaxy Quest.
The pacing of these movies is great. There's really no part of either I'd fast forward.
By Grabthor’s hammer, I have to agree.
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, watching it every year on christmas,... Still laughing my ass off.
