You watch it again and again. What is it?

The Road to El Dorado.

The magic is still there, even though I can quote and sing my way through it, and have done so a hundred times over.

Movies:

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (I heart it soo much)

Jurrassic Park (imo the perfect popcorn movie)

Serenity

Ghost in the Shell (my first "genuine" Anime Experience, still one of the best)

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (well, if it's Christmas)

The Fountain (i don't care if it's pretentios or not, it's both pretty and moving and has the most awesome score of all time)

Requiem for a Dream (Weirdly enough, given that it depresses me more than anything. Due to repeat viewings, i've "got over" most of the film, yet the ending still shakes me up)

Airplane!

Fight Club

and weirdly, Repo! The Genetic Opera
I don't even like about half of the songs, and it feels to slapsticky at times, but i love it's distinct style, some true showcase direction in some songs, how it completely blown my expectations (mainly the one that it sucks and that Paris Hilton makes every movie unwatchable), how it is actually more an opera than a musical and that there is just a lot to it.

As for TV Shows:

Futurama

Simpsons (The "good ones")

Family Guy (The "good ones")

Cowboy Bebop

Samurai Champloo

The IT Crowd

South Park

and, of course, Firefly

The matrix, at least once per three months, and there's always something new I notice about the movie.

Hot Fuzz. Always worth putting on, always good to be running in the background.

In terms of movies, I'd have to go with Office Space and Idiocracy, both movies by the inventor of Beavis n Butthead, but so much better and smarter than that.

As for TV, our 'Freeview' TV stations are pretty much endless repeats, what with ITV 2,3,4, E4, Dave, and a dozen others, for example, the ITVs pretty much just rotate old ITV dramas and sitcoms, Dave could pretty much rename itself 'Top Gear and QI 24/7', Challenge is just 80s and 90s game shows.

It's very easy to just leave a channel on.

I don't have anything like that nowadays, but while we're on the topic of childhood movies:

The Three Amigos.

I watched it so many times that the vhs tape got worn out.
yeah, we (my brothers and i) literally watched space jam and the first power rangers movie so many times the vhs broke. in hindsight, i dont really know why i loved those movies THAT much, but nowadays i can totally understand why i liked toy story so much. but still i rarely watch things more than once, twice if it was a short vid someone just missed.

OH i just remembered an exception. i recently saw an a capella video of bad romance done by an all male a capella group, watched that about a dozen times. i liked the song, and its so catchy in a capella!

If you were to say "You READ it again and again" then oohhhh boy.

I've never seen much of B&B, but apperantly it's supposed to have some brilliant undertones. At least, if Patrick Steward is to be believed.

Idiocracy also belongs easily to the list above.
While i'm disappointed by the plot itself, being largely by-the-numbers when you closely look at it, it still has great gags and a brilliant and creative satirical vision of a world gone moronic.

Tangled - The near pitch perfect love child between Disney and Pixar. I don't think I've ever seen a more tightly written script in my life.

The Incredibles - Pixar's best movie ever. Not just a great cartoon, but a fantastic super hero movie.

My Neighbor Totoro - The unltimate warm 'n fuzzy nostalgia flick.

I watched spider man (the one with tobey maguire) like every night for a whole year when I was a kid. Seriously. Every single night.
Then it was how I met your mother, being taken over by community and finally superseded by my little pony :)

Team America.

I just can't stop laughing, no matter how often I see this film.

More recently; the full Battlefield 3 "Fault Line" trailer. Especially the fight and sniper scene.
