      Doesn’t matter how often you see scenes like ride of the rohirrim, they remain just as epic as they were the first time.

    Everything Everywhere All at Once, Interstellar, Fight Club, Arrival, The Sixth Sense, Primer. I’m sure I could go on but all of those are great on a rewatch.

      I watched that movie stoned off my ass and with the catchphrases the characters do, I thought I was in a time loop. 10/10

      Also adding Shawn of the Dead/anything Edgar Wright

    Donnie Darko

    Fight Club

    Pulp Fiction

    All three of those make much more sense the second time around.

    In general, though, that’s a matter of personal preference. I will never turn down Young Frankenstein, The Blues Brothers, Blazing Saddles, Groundhog Day, or The Princess Bride.

      You make a good distinction. In my opinion this question can be answered in two ways:

      • A movie that holds up being just as good on a rewatch.

      • Movies where you either pick up on clues/details on further rewatches once you know the full movie. Or that are just so dense/layered that you just can’t catch everyrhing the first time you watch it

      The first one is the best and one I enjoy rewatching.

        The Smiths fight scene in the park that happens in Reloaded is arguably one of the best fight sequences out of the OT.

        The first movie was ground breaking though and holds up so well. I think if Equilibrium had a higher budget and visionaries like the Wachowskis working on it, it likely would be as highly regarded as the Matrix.

        I’ll watch any Denis Villeneuve movie on repeat tbh. The audio alone can carry my evening

          He is certainly a great director, still not on the level of PTA or Tarantino for me but I hold his movies very high in many regards. Also, if you are referring to Dune soundtracks please check this video where Hans Zimmer explains how he came up with the music of Dune : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93A1ryc-WW0

          I found “Enemy” extremely interesting and Villeneuve is my favorite director but I’m not sure I want to rewatch it.

      Which one though? There’s the David Lynch version, the Sci Fi mini series, and the most recent adaptation. They all have their pros/cons, but I honestly prefer the Sci Fi mini series. It’s lower budget than the movies, but I think they did a great job at adapting the source material.
