Screw it, let's make the most confusing complicated movie and throw "Inception" in the mix.
Edit: grammar

The Day After Tomorrow
I hate when people comment "lol" but lol
just stop hating when people comment "lol"
Dude, Where's My Car
The Hangover would be great for the same reason.
The Room
It would tear everyone apart!
Hunger Games, maybe a different protagonist but Imagine being brutally killed over and over until they become both a killing machine and a revolutionary leader.
Mulholland Drive
28 Days Later
That id 100% watch
Zombie movie makers are always looking for a fresh new angle. I think you just found one.
Independence Day
So Edge of Tomorrow?
That's the joke :)
Literally the best tom cruise movie
lol whoops
That would be Edge of Tommorow.
Heathers
Edge of Tomorrow
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, and Scotty keeps banging his head on that bulkhead.
The paradox doesn't resolve until Spock realizes he should just let Kirk plummet to his death when he falls from the face of El Capitan at the beginning of the film, as the Trekumverate (Kirk, Spock, Bones) tore open a hole in space-time when they were ripping burbon-baked beans farts while singing Row, Row, Row Your Boat over a campfire, and Spock couldn't get the timing right.
Benjamin Button. Every new day is an age regression event with an increasing handicap. No unlimited tries.
Clean Slate. Dana Carvey.
Or Memento.
Wouldn’t that be Run Lola Run (in that neither the main character nor anyone else is aware of the resetting story line)?
Memento was going to be my answer too :)
Fire Walk With Me, with Bill Murray helping Laura figure it out quicker.
I feel like Jumper or limitless could do something interesting with time loops
Highlander
Momento and Groundhog Day.
Wakes up every day unable to remember anything, and can't even leave notes.
You could call it "Stuck in the Ground-hog"
Looper.
I think you could make a really fun one with The Matrix. You can stack the Matrixes and have something like Neo flys of in the " end" just yo wake up in the pod aging.
If you just watch Groundhog's Day backwards, it's like a mash-up with Tenet.
The Shining.
Alien would be neat
So, Returnal?
Teen coming of age comedy. Nerd kid wants to be popular but can't ever seem to get his friends to be popular too.
Kill Bill
Isn't that basically the idea of the Deathloop videogame? Protagonist has 24 hours to assassinate a bunch of other assassins or mercs who are also caught in a timeloop.
Primer
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Donnie Darko
Ex Machina
The pianist
Die Hard
Click. That Adam Sandler movie about the remote which controls time. If both movies play out like they did separately, the amalgamation would stall out half way through and never recover.
Broke back mountain
Isn't that basically 50 first dates?
