Films that can be watched more than once

Films that can be watched more than once...

i.e. films you actually go out of your way to watch rather than happen to catch on TV.

At the risk of being labeled a wannabe 80's action hero:

Aliens
Big Trouble in Little China
Die Hard 1
Escape from New York
First Blood
The Goonies
Leon
Midnight Run
Predator 1
The Thing
Training Day
Speed 1
The Warriors

[RSoles]

Dr. Strangelove. we'll meet again, BOOM Oh no you won't.
Zulu Dawn, where the Zulu win.
The Cruel Sea.
Gentlemen's relish.
Oh Mr. Porter.

edit: Leon, good choice. Also Ronin.
Stalingrad and Enemy at the gates as a pair showing the siege of Stalingrad from the two different sides.


The Battle of the Sexes, just for the filing system!

Quite a few that I would pick myself already mentioned, also:

The Right Stuff
Apollo 13
Das Boot
Forest Gump

Das Boot

Oh yes, I'd forgotten that, good call doodab.

How about "Eraserhead"?

Mostly I agree.

They don't make em like they used to. Even when ripping them off to do a remake.

Big Trouble In Little China. That takes me back. All those great quotes ("I never drive faster than I can see. Besides, it's all in the reflexes."), and Kim Cattrall never looked hotter.

Black Hawk Down

Hoot is a legend.

When I go home people'll ask me, "Hey Hoot, why do you do it man? What, you some kinda war junkie?" You know what I'll say? I won't say a goddamn word. Why? They won't understand. They won't understand why we do it. They won't understand that it's about the men next to you, and that's it. That's all it is.

Y'know what I think? Don't really matter what I think. Once that first bullet goes past your head, politics and all that tulip just goes right out the window.

True Romance

Mad Max

You should see the damage, bronze. Huh? metal damage, brain damage. Heheheh. You listen bronze. I am the Nightrider. I'm a fuel injected suicide machine. I am the rocker, I am the roller, I am the out-of-controller! I'm the Nightrider, baby, and we ain't never comin' back!

I am the Nightrider! I am the chosen one. The mighty hand of vengeance, sent down to strike the unroadworthy! I'm hotter than a rollin' dice. Step right up, germ, and watch the kid lay down the rubber road, ride to freedom!

Scarface

All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break them for no one.

[OwlHoot]

I bought this one a couple of weeks ago.



Haven't got round to watching it yet, but I'm sure it'll be re-watchable a few times
