Great question!
For me it would have to be Poseidon Adventure. Loved it when I saw it as a kid. But apparently it did a number on me because I have an irrational fear of boats/ships and water! I can't breathe just thinking about it. I had a heck of a time going to visit my husband on his cutters when he was in the Coast Guard! And it gets worse with age!
My dd agrees with The Green Mile. But she said The Cowboys. She just has a very sensitive soul and has a hard time watching anything overly emotional. She won't watch any war movies, she won't watch/read Where the Red Fern Grows etc etc!
Shawshank Redemption
Brokeback Mountain
I loved both but can't bring myself to watch them again. Shawshank comes on TV sometimes and I will watch the parts that I like...lol
Oh, Shawshank is the opposite for me. I HAVE to watch if I see it’s on!
Then I thought of Patch Adams. Good movie, but I can't watch it again.
Ditto. I must have seen that show a 100 times.. love it every time..
I think the ability to rewatch a show over and over is linked to how much you love it. I don't know of any movies that i truly love that i can't watch over and over.. but looking at this thread, there are movies listed that i saw, liked but never saw again.. Passion of the Christ comes to mind. i saw that, liked it a lot.. but don't think i would sit and watch it again... In fact, most movies are that way for me. Only the movies i truly love (Shawshank) will i watch over and over again.
This movie still makes me deeply sad. I would never watch it again even if someone paid me.Didn’t love but thought was good...
