Not exactly 10+ times for... Probably any of these. But enough times that I'm certain I'd still discover more on another rewatch

  • Airplane!
  • Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
  • Longlegs

I love Rear Window and Psycho, have had those 10+ times. I haven't seen a lot of his movies tho, so maybe I should get a bag of chips and load some of them up, for they seem unlikely to disappoint me.

Silence of the Lambs.

It's my favorite movie. So well done. Every set is a work of art, with so many tiny details added. Pause at any point when it's panning through Buffalo Bill's basement, and you can see a dozen different things that tell you about him.

All of the scenes lead into each other perfectly. Hannibal tells her Bill is probably on the hunt for his next victim, then it cuts to Catherine Martin driving home, singing to the radio and loving her life.

The scenes where people are "studying" each other has the actors looking directly into the camera, so you feel the discomfort of being stared at.

Clarice spends most of the movie being towered over or being fixated on my intimidating men. You can really see it impacting her as she tries not to show it.

I have to make myself shut up when I watch it with someone new, because I have something to say about every frame of the movie. 10/10

Tenet

I'm as much intrigued by the concept as I am confused. It's hard to put into words, really. At the very beginning they say something along the lines that he needs to "feel" it, pure intuition, because because he needs to have done it already. Chills me every time because it's such a fantastic idea. Like is he writing it into existence the moment he/someone travels back (doing things they "did" already). Or was it actually in the timeline already, and he did do those things which he is about to do now. According to the "window in the time switching room" explanation it should be the second option, but the first one would still work imo. I'm absolutely positively confused, and I love it.

Btw the movie lacks a scene, where he absolutely fumbles it, because he's thinking what to do, instead of using his instincts to reverse-do what he has done already. But then: Could he fumble it, considering he did it already?

Last thought: while traveling back do they get younger, or older? Even the oxigen cycle reverses (hence the masks)...

Naked Lunch. That movie is so dense. Particularly when you find out what parts are ba based on real life.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

I've never heard of any of the movies you mentioned...

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago

Memento. Upon the 10th re-watch I actually managed to follow the story.

Jokes aside, I love that movie. It just takes a lot of effort to actually learn wtf is happening.

[–] leave_it_blank@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Tenet. I got the story the first time, but there are so many little details in it...

[–] Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

So you're the guy who liked that movie!

[–] leave_it_blank@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Like? I love it!!

[–] Tiger@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

Stay - great acting by Ewan Mcgreger, Ryan Gosling and Naomi watts. Super trippy, hard to understand completely in first tries and a great watch.

[–] Krudler@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I really don't watch very much movie so I probably have the saddest comment of all. But on my fourth watching of office space I noticed that there's a misspelling on the jump to conclusions mat, it should say lose a turn not loose a turn.

[–] Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

You know, I doubt I've seen any movie over 10 times, at least not since I was a kid watching the same vhs over and over. But I've probably seen office space more than any other and I've definitely never noticed that. Good eye.

The Grand Budapest Hotel.

If we're counting musicals then Hadestown. The lyrics have so many moments of for-shadowing and calling back, it's beautiful. There was a pro-shot filmed earlier this year, hopefully they'll release it soon 🤞

"Marathon Man."

I think it was my fifth viewing that I realized a character from the beginning shows up briefly in the middle.

[–] CrazyHorse@lemmy.cafe 3 points 2 days ago

Seen this once, but I think there is no argument to be made about watching it again.

[–] FarraigePlaisteach@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Victoria (2015) does that for me. Maybe it's because the whole movie is recorded in a single take, but it holds my attention in a way most others don't. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_(2015_film)
