Firefly, without a doubt. I've probably watched the show at least 5 times over. Outside of how much I love it, it's also an easy TV watch as, unfortunately, it's only 14 episodes. If I need anything on in the background, I'll always default to this too. (no cable or anything, I just stick to my DVDs)

Probably, Nightmare on Elm Street or Revenge of the Nerds or Star Wars. However, I'm still trying to catch up on DVD viewing, so it's rare when I re-watch a movie lately.
However, HBO-HD kept showing I-Robot for a week straight, and I seem to catch it EVERYtime. hehe.

I have a 400+ backlog of unwatched DVDs, so there are very few DVDs that I see more than once with original audio and once with commentary. There's only one that I've seen more than three times on DVD: Solaris (Tarkovsky, 1972) - I've watched it five times now, including with commentary twice.

I would say "Jaws" the most..sometimes I just let the opening menu thing play over and over in the background..the water, bouy dinging sounds..lol.
Then maybe the Night Stalker double feature, The Car, Somewhere in Time, The Birds

Lebowski. Glad they're releasing an updated version... my old copy was getting abused.

Tough one. Perhaps the one I have personally watched the most is either Halloween or The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. When people come over and say they haven't seen Chopper though I always put that on for them to watch, it's a great film.

I would have to say Gladiator (DTS) for me. Following that closely would be Brotherhood of the Wolf, Hunt for Red October, Jurassic Park (all of them), and The Mummy.
However, if the question is referring to the most played dvd in my household then it would definitely be one of the kids movies....Dora the Explorer, The Cat in the Hat, or one of the many Disney movies.

Drop Dead Fred. Maybe about 30 times.
Because I love watching Phoebe Cates be all sweet and innocent and vulnerable in almost every scene.
And because it's very funny.

I would be the matrix for me, about 6-8 times or maybe more I don't know exactly.
It's the first dvd I got with Enemy of the State (watched that once about 4times)
Funnily I haven't watched either movie since about a year...
I also saw ghost in the shell quite a few times, I own the dvd since a few year.
Other movie I brought more recently and watched 2 or more times
-Once upon a time in the west
-Sanjuro
-the hidden fortress
-in the mood fore love

"The Bourne Identity" and "Brotherhood of the Wolf" (Canadian SE - great edition). For some reason I can rewatch those two more often than any others. "Abyss" would be up there too, if only it were anamorphic. "Firefly" has the potential to creep up into this short list, but with the bigger time commitment I've only managed to watch it twice.

Probably Eraserhead. I really enjoy repeat viewings, however, most re-viewings have been due to friends insisting they view it (I refuse to loan it out, but that is another story).
Otherwise, with around 2,000 DVDs these days and a large pile queued to watch, I don't repeat a disc more than a couple times very often.
