As per the title basically, what films can you just watch over and over again without getting fed up of it?

I have a few, The Dark Knight, mainly just because of Heath Ledgers incredible acting.
Anchorman. No need to explain that one.
Any of the Pirates of the Caribbean series, and likewise for Harry Potter.

And basically any film with Will Ferrell, Steve Carrell or Ben Stiller.

Over to you PH.

ETA: The 1969 Italian Job, the remake was gash.

The Blues Brothers. It's my favourite movie, seen it over 100 times. Fell in love all over again with the extended version. I don't normally like musicals, but this one is something special. The sequel (BB 2000) was hideous and shouldn't really have been made though!

And a bit leftfield, due to watching it lots as a student, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure - still puts a smile on my face.

Along with Saving Private Ryan, not sure how you can watch these more than once, brilliant film/series but not something I would watch over and over. Far too realistic (and consequently rather distressing).

60s/70s Hammer horror films
Aliens/Predator franchise
Mad Max
Bullitt (for the cars!)
Thomas Crown Affair (the original with Steve McQueen - a uniquely stylish film)

Me too.

Smokey and the Bandit (my 5 year old son loves this film and we must have seen it 7-8 times already this year).

Oh, and Love Actually with the OH.

Funny how people often include Band of Brothers as one of their favourite "films" - when it is actually a TV series.

I can always watch Battle of Britain and A Bridge Too Far.
