Great answer. So many great actors playing against their usual type, and not the plot I expected at all. It is a great movie when you know what the hell is going on.

The Big Lebowski is the standard bearer for me on this topic. I thought it was stupid the first time I saw it, I watched it again when nothing else was on and now it's one of my favorite and most rewatchable movies

I thought Dumb and Dumber and Napoleon Dynamite were stupid when I first saw them. Now I really appreciate the comedy and they have so many iconic scenes and lines.

I liked Pulp Fiction a little because of some cool parts when I first viewed it, but I didn’t like the non-chronological aspect of it. Within a few years it was one of my favorite movies.

My date to that movie.... didn't realize the girl was blind until it was plainly pointed out by the outsider.

She also kissed like a damned gecko.

Almost ruined the whole movie experience. Didn't ask her out again but I at least told her she sucked at kissing so hopefully she worked on it.

I wasn’t a fan of Anchorman the first time I watched it at the movie theater. Every time I watched it after, I found it hilarious.

The Talented Mr Ripley

Walked out of the theater the first time I saw it in college. It’s not one of my favorites, but I watched it again a few years ago and I realized my immaturity judged it the first time. It’s a solid flick

Zoolander

i was like 21 when it came out and maybe i was either too drunk/high or not drunk/high enough the first time i watched it but I thought it was sooo dumb!

watched it a second time either sober or in the correct amount of drunk/high and laughed my arse off and have seen it dozens of times since.

Godfather 2

Austin Powers
