For me, it was, sadly, Final Fantasy Spirits Within.
I don't like the movie, but when it was in theaters every one of my friends wanted to see it, and schedules didn't line up. Buddy is in town for 3 days "hey let's see a movie!" Every time it ended up being that damn movie.
I ended up seeing it in the theaters 10 times.
That's actually a great movie, and it's probably one of my most watched DVDs.
It's some of the best early mo-cap cgi in cinema history. Photorealistic without diving into the uncanny valley.
And storyline is very engaging. It hits poignant notes about pacifism, environmentalism and reincarnation without coming off as preachy or condescending.
