You probably have a handful of movies that you’ve watched over and over and over again . . . and will STILL pop in every now and then, or stop and watch if you catch them on TV.
Ranker.com has a list of ‘The Most Re-Watchable Movies of All Time,’ and “Forrest Gump” is #1.
Here’s the Top 10:
1. “Forrest Gump”
2. “Back to the Future”
3. “Star Wars: A New Hope”
4. “Jurassic Park”
5. “The Princess Bride”
6. “Raiders of the Lost Ark”
7. “Die Hard”
8. “Groundhog Day”
9. “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back”
10. “The Shawshank Redemption”
Not surprisingly, “Schindler’s List” did NOT crack the Top 10. It’s so heavy it’s hard to endure a first time. But incredibly, it DID make the list. It’s #975 . . . a few slots BEHIND the Nicolas Cage / Cher movie “Moonstruck” and the boring-looking Kate Winslet and Ralph Fiennes movie “The Reader”.
But it’s actually MORE re-watchable than “St. Elmo’s Fire”, which is #978 . . . “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” (#980) . . . and “Norbit” (#1004).
(Ranker.com has the whole list. Last we checked, there were 1508 movies altogether. This is one of those ongoing online polls, so the exact rankings will change over time, and new movies could be added.)
