I'm afraid they might be a whole bunch of oldies but goodies:
2001: A Space Odyssey.
The Empire Strikes Back.
Miller's Crossing (the third movie written and directed by the Coen brothers, from 1989).
A Bridge Too Far (from 1977, a sprawling, star-studded epic about the Allies and their costly, ill-advised and ultimately unsuccessful Operation Market-Garden in WWII).
A Bout De Soufflé. (Godard's seminal French New Wave cannon blast).
From Russia With Love.
The Spy Who Loved Me.
As a kid, it was a cartoon - The Little Mermaid. As an adult... It is a cartoon - Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse.
In the last few years? The Magic Sword (1962) about 7 times I think and I could go for another.
All of these movies my family sits down and watches at least once a year:
Harry Potter series.. All of them.
LoTR/ Hobbit.. All of them.
Paul
Strictly Ballroom
Princess Bride
Music Man 1962 version
Court Jester 1955 with Danny Kaye
Let the bullets fly. It's a Chinese classic, I watch it with all my friends that have enot heard it before and they all love it.
Rogue One
The Martian.
It's my go-to when I just want something to watch.
Full Metal Jacket.
Best war movie and best Kubrick movie of all time.
Interstate 60
GoodFellas
Ben-Hur. Loved it in my youth, when TV still aired this kind of movies regularly, and I absolutely love it and like to review it from time to time. There are others I've watched again lots if times (Star Wars, The Matrix...) but Ben-Hur is number one.
graveyard of the fireflies.
i don't usually rewatch, but if the plane has it, i challenge myself. again. and again.
this time, i won't cry
I have a similar relationship with "Dancer in the Dark" whenever I get around to it. I always cry...
i just read the plot. this reminds me of how we get our other senses boosted if we shut off our dominant sense(mostly eyesight).
it looks promising! i'll be sure to check it out in the weekend.
Seriously... Tissues and a blanket. Required.
If you need to talk after, we'll be here.
Summer Wars. And it still tears me up.
I have played Wonka multiple times a day, every day at my house since it released for streaming.
Transformers The Movie (1986). I still get teary eyed when Optimus Prime dies.
2001: A Space Odyssey
