Some people want to be able to watch a movie "for the first time" all over again. Others want to forget a rubbish one. If you could remove just one movie from your memory, which would it be?

Fight Club. Really good, but just hasn't ever had the same impact on repeat watches.

With a lot of other "plot twist" movies, you can at least enjoy repeat viewings because you see and enjoy all the signs, and maybe even pick up new ones. But Fight Club, despite being excellent, doesn't really execute the repeat view appeal very well at all imo.

I think a good plot twist movie is worth watching twice, once to experince it blind and another to see the change in motivation for characters knowing the plot twist

I like that movie. It kind of snuck up on me.

Johnny Got His Gun (1971).

I could not finish this disturbing movie, and I would be happy to forget it.

I remember watching it with my brother few years ago. Man, what a sad movie and even more sad ending.

[–] RozhkiNozhki@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Everything is illuminated. I'd love to watch it again.

Probably a anime or manga that has the most chapters and one that I enjoyed.

Battlefield Earth.

Cloud Atlas

Shit was way too intense for the age I saw it at

[–] missveeronica@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 year ago

Battle Royale 2 or Waiting 2.

Both of them were sequels to movies I loved that nearly ruined the first one retroactively. Usually I just chock it up to bad movie, but those two were beyond painful to watch.

Gummo, fuck that stupid piece of shit.
