It's not necessarily a question of owning DVDs. I've been watching most of these multiple times from back in movie theater/revival theater days:

High Noon (30-40 times by now?)
The Searchers
The Alamo (1960)
The Last Picture Show
The Man Who Would Be King
Bringing Up Baby
The Way We Were (now there's a guilty pleasure!)
Gone With The Wind
Some Like It Hot
The River of No Return
Shane
Blade Runner
East of Eden
The Philadelphia Story
Smoke Signals

If they're on TV, I'll sit down and watch them. I can't not do it. But I also watch them on DVD regularly. It becomes a ritual, like spending time with old friends.

So many! Today I watched All The King's Men for the nth time. Also:

7 Days in May
Advise and Consent
Imitation of Life (1934 version)
A Summer Place
Inherit the Wind
To Kill A Mockingbird
The Day The Earth Stood Still
Sabrina
One Potato, Two Potato
any Charlie Chaplin film
42nd Street
Earth vs. the Flying Saucers
Casablanca
The Philadelphia Story
Duck Soup
Forbidden Planet
Shadow of a Doubt

Newer movies - these are more guilty pleasures than "quality" movies: any of the Toy Story or Cars Pixar movies, any of the Star Trek movies (except The Final Frontier - ugh), Beauty Shop with Queen Latifah, Legally Blonde, Independence Day.

Are we accomplishing much by rattling off movie titles though? I started by just listing just a few and telling why they are so repeatable. A lost effort.
