My tolerance for repeat views is inversely proportional to the time since the last viewing, but here are some general exceptions:

Twins (1988)
Back to the Future 1-3
Idiocracy
Saved by the Bell TV movies (I built up a large SBTB tolerance after school in the 90s)
Christmas Story (I blame TBS)

I haven't really experimented with many others though. I'm usually a one-watch-and-shelf kind of person.
