What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times?

Here’s a personal list of movies or TV series I’ve revisited time and againsome for nostalgia, others for sheer brilliance. These are the ones that have stood the test of time in my book.

Movies

  • Charlie Chaplin’s Classics
    I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched these gems. From The Kid to Modern Times, Chaplin’s genius still cracks me up every time. Timeless laughter is hard to beat.
  • Indiana Jones Series
    I’ll admit, The Last Crusade is a favoritenot just for the adventure, but for Sean Connery’s magnetic presence. He and Harrison Ford together? Pure magic.
  • The Godfather Trilogy
    A masterful adaptation of Mario Puzo’s novel. The storytelling, the performances, the tensionit’s no wonder I keep coming back.
  • Sholay (Indian Cinema)
    This 50-year-old Bollywood classic never gets old. The action, the dialogues, the camaraderieit’s a masterpiece worth rewatching… again.
  • Harry Potter Series
    A shared ritual with my wife, who’s read every book. I love the films for their wonder and escapismshe loves testing my trivia knowledge afterward!

TV Series

  • Star Trek (The Original Series)
    I stick to the older episodesKirk, Spock, and the gang exploring strange new worlds. The newer versions feel weighed down by political bias, so I steer clear.
  • Pokémon
    Watched this with my son when he was a toddler, and now I revisit it just to see if I can still name every character. Nostalgia hits hard with this one.

Movies and TV shows are at their best when they whisk you away to worlds of imagination and fantasy. The moment they start preaching ideology or pushing political agendas, they lose their charm. For me, those are to be avoided like the plague.
