Hmm. Well you don't want my whole list. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of such films. Which is why I buy them on dvd or ld, because I can watch them over, and over, and over...
The list looks something like this:
Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein
Adam's Rib
The Adventures of Robin Hood
[over 500 titles omitted]
You Only Live Twice
Young Frankenstein
Zelig

I'll base this on movies I can throw in and watch anytime.
Princess Bride
Miller's Crossing (even more when the movie is released on DVD)
The Big Lebowski
Labyrinth
Chasing Amy
Se7en
Silence of the Lambs
Evil Dead II
American Beauty
61* (even though I hate the Yankees-go figure)
King of New York (and damn near everything with Christopher Walken)
Leon: the Professional
and many more...

Star Wars Episode 1 - would be the closest one since I saw it bout 30 times. (5 in theaters)
Inspector Gadget - I was forced to watch this 100 times since they had it running at a cash register where I worked. (I don't want to see it ever again)
Disney's Pinoccio - saw this around 50 times growing up. I also used to love watching "chip and dale rescue rangers", "Teenage mutant ninja turtles", "duck tales", and "Sailor moon" (doh).
I also like The matrix, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Titan AE, Fast and the furious but don't know if I'd see any of those 100 times.

While I doubt that I've watched any of these a hundred times, some of these have to be pretty close.
2001: A Space Odyssey
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
Blade Runner
Southern Comfort
A Clockwork Orange
Dr. Strangelove
Miller's Crossing
The Matrix
Animal House
The Fifth Element - do demos count?
Last of the Mohicans
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Mission Impossible 2 - sue me.
Jaws
Taxi Driver
Alien
Once Upon A Time In The West
Harvey
and my all time favorite film that I never, ever tire of watching, despite countless viewings:
Chariots of Fire - I simply love every thing about this film.
- Walter.

It's a Wonderful Life
The Wizard of Oz
Gone With the Wind
The Sound of Music
Close Encounters
West Side Story
Fiddler on the Roof
2001: A Space Odyssey
Psycho
For some reason, I never grow tired of these. I tried to find a common theme in them once to explain their appeal to me. The protagonist overcoming incredible odds was one -- but then, isn't that true of most movies? Really pretty cinematography was another, buy how shallow is that?
