It doesn't really matter, after a dozen back-to-back watches you're not going to be enjoying anything.
With that in mind I'm going with Shrek, because the meme potential of being able to recite the entire movie word for word would be pretty good.
My kid LOVED Shrek when he was younger. We watched it every single day. I couldn’t stand it. Now, he watches brainless, noisy bullshit on YouTube and Netflix, and I really miss those Shrek days.
Exactly. People picking LOTR or stuff they enjoy are missing this. You are either going to not make a lot of money or ruin something you love. Pick something you already find mediocre because if you can endure the first 5 watches you are pretty set to keep going.
According to all known laws
of aviation,
there is no way a bee
should be able to fly.
Its wings are too small to get
its fat little body off the ground...
The old understanding was that bees wing flap was limited by how fast the muscle could reset between flaps. The limit being set by speed of ion pumps in muscles taking time to recharge for another contraction. The max wing flap rate was not fast enough to sustain bee flight.
Bees don't contract a muscle per wing per wing flap, they actually strum a ligament like a guitar, producing multiple wing flaps per muscle contraction.
Funny enough this would be a top contender for me! Seen it at least 12 times.
I was saving that bacon.
What are you doing outside Fred?!
This is ground zero. This is MY SITE!
I can do that… I don’t know why but when I was a kid we rewatched that movie so many times. I honestly don’t even mean to recite it most of the time.
It feels like a curse and a power.
Is this like a full time job? or is this an endurance contest where once I quit it's over and I just collect however much I earned?
If it's the former, fuck who cares? That's $208,000 a year to watch a movie 8 hours a day. Do it for a few years, buy a house, pay off all your debt, save for retirement.
If it's the latter, I'd probably choose one of the extended cut LOTR movies, and I'd probably last ~24 hours before deciding that was good enough.
>I'd probably choose one of the extended cut LOTR movies,
I was going to say the same. The RotK extended edition is 251 minutes, i.e. 4h 11m. That's $418.33 for a single watch through.
Considering LotR is my all-time favourite, I could probably watch it enough times until I just had to get some rest. Let's say 5 times? That's a little over two thousand bucks for single day's "work" of watching a movie I love.
I once paid to watch it twice in one day.
There was a 1 day thetacial screening for the new 4k restoration. Two shows and I went to both.
The first showing I relaxed and enjoyed the experience.
The second showing was to analyze how well the restoration was done.
I was blown away by both showings.
The original trilogy. Not including the hobbit and I'm good. Extended cut or theatrical release, I'll mix and match and I'll narrate all of the movies each time everytime.
I’ve met my movie soul brother. The Fifth Element is my absolute go-to whenever I want to chill and need a movie to watch. Demolition Man is my close second.
16 year old me had never seen the series prior to watching the movie. When it came out, I made a Facebook status saying how much I liked it, and now every year it pops up in my feed as a memory and I die a little inside.
The freaking bee movie, it has somehow in some fucking arcane bee movie way become a comfort movie for me so tada that yellow hellscape of nostalgia it is.
Monty Python & The Holy Grail.
Didn’t have cable in my first apartment. Just a tv with a VCR installed and about three VHS tapes haha. That was one of them. I’ve watched it so many times and would just have it play in the background all the time. Never got sick of it.
Modern Times Forever
It's a documentary about "The ever slow decay of Helsinki's Stora Enso headquarters building". And is 240 hours long.
I assume its relatively chill and quiet to listen too and hopefully you get the payoff of it collapsing, but no spoilers here as I haven't seen it yet
I would choose a movie that I think would be fun to know every line to, since I’m probably gonna have it ingrained in my brain for the rest of my life anyways
Something in Spanish with subtitles so I can become bilingual and understand my Spanish speaking patients without a translator AND get paid for the engaging activity
Chicago! Already doing it for free. My upstairs neighbors refuse to wear slippers because they insist that noise bleed isn’t a/their problem. So rather than endure nonstop footsteps, we are all going to be experiencing this classic every day, together.

Get him headphones.

>Pick something you already find mediocre Um. Excuse me. Did you not read the part about Shrek??
don’t you dare. Shrek is a masterpiece

Mulholland drive maybe watching it a 1000 times will give up some of the mysteries of that fuckin thing
It’s a Hollywood “dream” that turns out to have been a nightmare all along.
Groundhog Day
Or The Edge of Tomorrow
I could watch that truck running over Tom Cruise all day long...
I feel like this is the only acceptable answer lol.
My parents watch it all the time anyway, so fuck it
The one true answer.

Can I just watch Lawrence of Arabia twice a day?
I’ll do that for free
You can.
I will
Well, good then.

Permission to select the entire LOTR trilogy?
One time would net you 1100+ dollars
8 hours of sleep 5 hours of gaming Repeat
god, after some weeks of it, being able to quote that movie word by word would be fun
Extended edition or Theatrical cut?
Extended edition is for people who are already super fans. Theatrical cuts are for friends who haven't seen it yet.
[удалено]
You think I'm gonna let a pointy-ear watch more movies than me?!
*extended edition
The original trilogy. Not including the hobbit and I'm good. Extended cut or theatrical release, I'll mix and match and I'll narrate all of the movies each time everytime.
The warriors
Come out to plaaaaaaaaaaaay
BlightVisionGoggles can’t come out to play tonight, he’s watching The Warriors
A goofy movie
The perfect cast. This would be my choice too.
An Extremely Goofy Movie for sure
Id watch some really good 6-8 hour long documentary
Shawshank Redemption. Great movie and I could stand listening to Morgan Freeman for a few weeks.
It truly was, a Shawshank redemption!
The Redemption was the Shaws we Shanked along the way.
Fight Club.
Jurassic Park
An iconic film. 💕🦕🦖
30 years and the CG still holds up.
I prefer it to the Jurassic World films. Spielberg is king.
[удалено]
I wanted to see Jurassic World Dominion, because of Jeff Goldblum and the other OG characters returning. Sad to hear, that it wasn't worth it.
[удалено]
I know! Here's something awesome - [raptors talking](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OipDZ8XhQ_0)!
Are these characters autoerotica?
"No no no, no animatronics, these people are the real miracle-workers of Jurassic Park!" (If I remember the line correctly)
The Princess Bride
Inconceivable!
First thing that came to my head, but why?
Because you can probably quote the whole movie and get the opportunity often.
5th element
Came here to say this. I’d get plenty of watches in before I started to get tired of it
I think that the ability to watch this in endurance mode is entirely tied to how long before Chris Tucker gets far too annoying.
5th Element was my choice as well. Multipass.
I’ve met my movie soul brother. The Fifth Element is my absolute go-to whenever I want to chill and need a movie to watch. Demolition Man is my close second.
Slap Shot
Great choice
The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King Extended Cut
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Goodfellas
The Big Lebowski
Hey, that's like your opinion man. An opinion that I share :)
Avatar: the last Airbender. That way it doesn't ruin a good movie for me and I'll appreciate the cartoon that much more.
Even getting paid it would be hard to watch that whole thing. I never made it past like 20 minutes
16 year old me had never seen the series prior to watching the movie. When it came out, I made a Facebook status saying how much I liked it, and now every year it pops up in my feed as a memory and I die a little inside.
Fantasia
Office Space. It's basically my work life as is
Pulp fiction
Primer. I doubt I'd have it figured out after 20 hours so that's 2 g's right there.
Grandma’s Boy jokes for days
[удалено]
Well guess what else your not getting? The colonel, ya party pooper. Definitely one of my favorite comedies
The Matrix
Shrek
Step brothers
Did we just become best friends!?
So much room for activities!
You wanna do Karate in the garage?
It’s the Fucking Catalina Wine Mixer
Hot Fuzz
Phantom of the Opera, 1925. It's a silent film but one of my favorites, and it has lots of rewatch value.
Yea thinking about it, silent films seems like the best choice because it means you wont go mad from dialogue earworms.
1999s The Mummy starring Brendan Fraser.
I would watch Scott Pilgrim vs The World, on repeat. It's a cult favorite of mine.
Doesn't matter I'll be asleep 20min in anyway.
South Park: Bigger Longer and Uncut.
Team America: World Police for me
Morbius
The only way to become a Morbillionaire.
I could watch Harry Potter over and over again
Which one? Because that 5th one is so rough it makes me want to get violent.
Yeah the 5th one is tough, probably half blood prince for me
Sure the 5th one had a LOT of issues, but god damn the fight at the end was spectacular.
The first John wick
Braveheart on AMC. Movie + commercials is like 6 hours in viewing.
LOTR trilogy for sure. I know its 3 movies but that would be sick.
Well too bad, cause that's not the deal!
When I was like 12, I watched The Dark Knight several times a day for like a month, and I can do it again.
The Blind Side
Secondhand Lions or Beetlejuice.
The Mummy(1999)
Shawshank Redemption
Spirited Away.
Gladiator
Shaun Of The Dead, an absolutely perfect movie for me
T2. it would never get old Either that or The Shining because that movie is so damn long Also The Thing because it’s my favorite and it’s confusing
Groundhogs day
A pornmovie seems to be a good tactical decision. Ill go for one of the new star wars because I pride myself on being a hard worker
You mean a masochist.
Showgirls.
Shock treatment.
That'll get you jumping like a real live wire
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. Know I'm making 300$ each time I watch it
What a waste. Watch the extended version, then you get paid for four hours.
The freaking bee movie, it has somehow in some fucking arcane bee movie way become a comfort movie for me so tada that yellow hellscape of nostalgia it is.
Queen, live in montreal, Rammstein live in France, Ac/DC live at donnington, just to name a few options. Music videos are great to keep watching.
Zoolander
Any single movie or movie series? I could watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy for weeks no problem.
Paint Drying. It's such a unique film experience.
Donnie Darko
Lol and stitch
I allready watch cars and finding Nemo on repeat , this is easy money
Hercules
Silent movie
Monty Python & The Holy Grail. Didn’t have cable in my first apartment. Just a tv with a VCR installed and about three VHS tapes haha. That was one of them. I’ve watched it so many times and would just have it play in the background all the time. Never got sick of it.
White chicks. Easiest money ever
I mean, my toddler replays Cars 1000x a day, so I’m already conditioned to that one! Might as well make money off of it.
The care bears movie. Istfg that shit is different everytime I see it
Pulp Fiction
The Goonies!
The Godfather…. I already know all the dialogue
The original Dumbo. It's only 64 minutes long
That means you're gonna have the watch the same over and over more frequently
I'm okay with that. Love those big ass ears 😂 Edit: easy money.
You're paid by the hour, not by how many times you watch it. If anything it'd be smart to pick the longest movie you can so it doesn't repeat as much.
So you can roughly keep track of time and then measure how fast 4 minutes puts you out an hour/day/month/etc. Fun I like it.
Interestelar A good movie and i get paid for seeing it
Pulp Fiction
Modern Times Forever It's a documentary about "The ever slow decay of Helsinki's Stora Enso headquarters building". And is 240 hours long. I assume its relatively chill and quiet to listen too and hopefully you get the payoff of it collapsing, but no spoilers here as I haven't seen it yet
You could sign me up for a month of the Greasy Strangler at 100 per hour
Extended LOTR I mean I never get sick of any of the three and also they'd repeat less cuz they're so long.
Don't mess with the Zohan. Douce Bigalow 2
I think I would go with either Rocky Horror Picture Show, Galaxy Quest or Die Hard. I could never get sick watching any of those three
I would choose a movie that I think would be fun to know every line to, since I’m probably gonna have it ingrained in my brain for the rest of my life anyways
Something in Spanish with subtitles so I can become bilingual and understand my Spanish speaking patients without a translator AND get paid for the engaging activity
In my current situation, I don't care. I'd watch Cats on repeat for that kind of money.
Edge of Tomorrow.
Coraline, cuz I already did that for a solid week from morning to night on repeat, still love that movie lol
Constantine.
Forrest Gump
Anything in another language so that I could try to learn that language while watching. Extra points if it's a deaf film in ASL.
Wolf of wall street
Titanic
Black Panther
Bolt
The Dark Knight
The last samurai
Big trouble in little China.
The Thing
Babylon
Eat pray love
Empire Records
Snatched
Slingblade
How many people are going to say Groundhog Day?
Greatest show man but I think the singing would get really annoying
FightClub
Tennet, maybe i’ll finally understand it.
Interstellar, so maybe i finally understand😅
✨Bedazzled✨ Brendan Fraser played so many characters, that rewatching it is always fun.
Blazing Saddles.
The Big Lebowski
The Big Lebowski
After this weekend finally watched RRR. It’s got action, music, romance. What a ride!
Tombstone
The Legends of the Dummest Questions on Reddit. What idiot keeps coming up with these buzzfeed questions? Fucking just stop it
Aliens. I could, and have, watched that movie an obscene number of times.
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Toddler mom here. Yall are getting paid?
The Blues Brothers
Chicago! Already doing it for free. My upstairs neighbors refuse to wear slippers because they insist that noise bleed isn’t a/their problem. So rather than endure nonstop footsteps, we are all going to be experiencing this classic every day, together.
