Absolutely. I've probably seen it 40+ times (it used to come on one of the Starz channels every day pretty much around the clock). It gets funnier each time.

Inception. After the first time I saw it, I was confused. After I saw it again, I was applauding and praising Nolan.

Royal Tennebaums - so much stuff you miss upon first viewing that it takes a lot more than one just to catch it all. Same with Life Aquatic.


Great, great movies

For myself it would be:

O Brother Where Art Thou

Just that once I found out it was based loosely on Homers Odyssey I came to understand and appreciate the quirky humor in it.

The Warriors

Apocalypse Now

Seen them both a whole bunch of times, but first time was back-to-back and super stoned, so they didn't really count.

Pretty much anything with Will Ferrel. Any movie with a rambling plot can be irritating the first time you watch it.

Godfather Part III. I thought it was godawful the first time I watched it but on subsequent viewings, it really wasn't that bad. The big problem is that nothing could live up to the first two movies of the series. It also didn't help matters that Goodfellas was released in the same year.

I didn't like it upon the first viewing, now I love the thing.

Napoleon Dynamite for sure. Gets funnier everytime I see it.

I agree with Signs also.

most have been mentioned but all true for me:

the first austin powers, anchorman, super troopers, the big lebowski, memento.


i have others but some are just the age in which i watched the original and got older and appreciated it more.


btw, if this were a question on the music board it would be nirvana's "in utero" for me.
