I don't think I'll watch Jurassic World again. Or any other nostalgia based blockbuster.

Batman Begins. The Dark Knight (and to a lesser extent The Dark Knight Rises) do have replay value, but BB is long and boring and has too much setup before the action begins. Of course, this is all IMO. See I'm the other way around. I feel Begins is the forgotten film of the trilogy, which is a shame as I feel it's the best of the three. Yeah, I completely agree. I absolutely love this movie. The first hour in particular is amazing. Training with The League, returning to Gotham, becoming Batman etc... I even think Katie Holmes did a pretty good job as Rachel.

I'm not sure if I can vote Avatar. Like I thought it was good spectacle seeing it in IMAX 3D, but I have no desire to see it in 2D and I'll be afraid I would be deathly bored by it. The only way I could watch Prometheus again is if I'm riffing on it with a buddy or two or more while being under the influence. Seriously what the f*** was that?!

Age of Ultron is up there for me. My favorite superhero is Hawkeye so I loved his part in the film, but overall it's just a bad movie. I'm really glad Whedon isn't doing Infinity War. After Winter Soldier, seeing Cap and Widow handled like your typical Joss Whedon characters was a huge step back, and Ultron came off like forced humor. He was the weakest Marvel villain since Whiplash.

I was really peeved that they made a big deal of Stark destroying his armor in Iron Man 3 and stepping out of the role, only to have him as Iron Man with barely any mention that he did all of that. I like the character development but a lot of the film (not all of it) felt like a step down.

I just realized earlier that I haven't seen Zoolander since I saw it in a theatre in 2001.
Zero interest ever seeing it again. It was fine, I thought Stiller played Zoolander too stupid (intentionally) to actually find funny, but you'd think it was the Casablanca of comedy from all the hype in years since.
The Hangover is another one. Saw the first one, didn't enjoy it, couldn't fathom how all the people I knew and online were screaming holy praise for it, never bothered with the 2 sequels.

I'll get some stares, but The Lego Movie. It was okay, but nothing I'd watch again and again LEGO Movie was a lot of fun. but it was like my fourth favorite animated film that year. Big Hero 6, How To Train Your Dragon 2 and Mr. Peabody & Sherman crowded it out IMO.

Most Pixar movies.
Quit staring.
Toy Stories 1 and 3, Finding Nemo and The Incredibles is all I can manage four or five times a year.

After Winter Soldier, seeing Cap and Widow handled like your typical Joss Whedon characters was a huge step back, and Ultron came off like forced humor. He was the weakest Marvel villain since Whiplash. I enjoyed Age of Ultron, but at the same time, there were some elements of it that seemed underwhelming. When I saw this in theaters three months ago, I did get a lot of enjoyment out of it, but because I had watched the first Avengers film before it, as it was in double feature at the theater I saw it at, the first film still had more enjoyment than the second film did. I might see it again, and I am going to add it to my collection, but I am in no rush. To the person who had mentioned Michael Bay's body of work, I will only speak on the first Transformers movie because in 2007, that film had a lot of hype. I remember taking a summer class at the time and some of my classmates were all talking about how Transformers was that good, and even a friend of mine told me the same thing. I saw it a month after it came out, and while I enjoyed it, I didn't think it was great. The rest of his films did not have me looking forward to them or anything like that. I had only seen the first TF film one other time when I rented it from the library. I still enjoyed it okay, but I did not care to see it again and if I were to watch it again, maybe it will be on TV or something.

Batman Begins. The Dark Knight (and to a lesser extent The Dark Knight Rises) do have replay value, but BB is long and boring and has too much setup before the action begins. Of course, this is all IMO. Agreed. I feel the same especially with Dark Knight Rises. It just takes too long to get going and it goes on for too long. The Dark Knight had the Joker on screen which definitely helped, but I thought tbe story in Rises wasn't as good and the Villain wasn't as interesting. I've tried to re-watch it a few times and just get bored with it. The Dark Knight Rises always felt like something Christopher Nolan threw together because he couldn't do anything else with The Joker. The whole story in general (especially everything after the first Bane-Batman fight) feels incredibly rushed and the ending is pretty meh. Though in fairness, Anne Hathaway was perfect as Selena Kyle and Bane would've been great if that stupid voice filter wasn't added.

I can watch Begins over and over, but I feel that the Dark Knight is massively overrated and TDKR is kind of filler to round everything out.

A good 90% of Movies I will only ever watch once.
Only a very small few get repeated views, probably why my Movie Collection isn't very big at all.

Avatar was the first thing to come to mind. A visual feast when I saw it at the cinema, but it loses 99% of it's appeal when viewed on a regular TV.
The Dark Knight and Dark Knight Rises also rank highly for me. Joker, Two-Face, Catwoman, and Bane are all great, but everything that goes on when they're not on-screen just really isn't that interesting. Batman Begins is really the most consistently entertaining watch for me of the three.

I don't know if overrated would be fair to call it, but while I felt like it was well made, I have zero desire to ever see Gran Torino again. It's just unpleasant as hell, and while I can see the effort that went into making it, I don't really get anything out of it.

I know. That's why they suck. Nah. I may not always agree with Matt and Trey but they are great social satirists, and while they are offensive to some they are certainly equal opportunity offenders that attack stupidity in all its forms.

Independance Day was fantastic in the theatre. But god awful on TV.
Titanic was a great film and deserved every award it got. But I'll never sit through it again.

Well I would say all those so bad they're good films such as The Room and Troll 2 because personally I've found that after watching more than a few times whatever novelty that they had wares off and those films just become terrible films.
