Current Events > What's the most times you re-watched a movie in theaters?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I definitely saw Aliens move than a dozen times. I went to see it almost every week for as long as it played in town and it stuck around for 5-6 months.

Back to the Future, The Lost Boys, Jurassic Park . . . there would be quite a list if I really thought about that I went to see 10+ times because they were so fun to watch. And over the decades I've seen Pink Floyd's The Wall at midnight showings well over 20+ times.

And that's just at theaters as TC asked. On VHS/DVD/BD there are films like Alien (my favorite film of all-time) that I've watched well over a 100 times.

I remember seeing There's Something About Mary and Batman '89 three times.

There may be ones that I saw more than that, but I don't remember.

I had a friend who really like the movie Gladiator. Since he was buying the tickets, I ended up seeing it three times.

Your friend has good taste, Air Raider.

I saw Star Trek 09 twice because I had friends who really wanted me to go see it with them when I already had. Other than that I recently caught the re-release of Episode III. Thats it.

I have never done this, not counting re-releases. If they are counted, I've seen a few Star Wars films several times, and the Raimi Spiderman trilogy twice (once when they originally came out, and again last year when my city re-screened them)

I saw The Two Towers, The Return of the King and Titanic 3 times each in cinemas.

Three times.

28 Days Later because it blew my mind.
Kill Bill Volume 1 because it also blew my mind.
LOTR Return of the King - Literally back to back showings. If it wasn't such a long movie with a drawn out ending I might not have minded.

Frozen and Ster Werz Eoisode 2: Attacking some Drones

I seen Infinity War twice in theaters.

Jurassic Park - 4 times. Through various rereleases and special events etc

Return of the King - 3 times original run.

A couple of Marvel movies twice.

Lmfao what

My buddy's pops owned the theater, so I got free tickets.

I think I may have seen Sixth Sense 3x in the theatres.

Three times maybe? Groundhog Day.

Twice. Watched a movie with my bro, then watched it with some friends that also wanted to see it. Done that with a few movies

I think he might be more surprised that you specifically and willingly saw Ang Lees Hulk movie that many times

Watched The Last Jedi three times. First by myself, then twice with different people.

Probably not, he knows me and what I'm about.

Ah ok, well thats definitely what I was
most surprised about

The only movies I can think of that I watched in a theater more than once are Kung Fu Hustle and The Last Jedi.

Kung Fu Hustle was because two separate friend groups wanted to see it on different days. The second time was really fun because my friends and I were literally the only people in the theater, so we could just riff on it the whole time without bothering anyone.

The Last Jedi was because the first time I saw it the theater fucked up the sound mixing, so the dialogue was nearly inaudible. My friend and I got free tickets that we later used to see Black Panther at that theater, and re-watched TLJ at a different one when my dad wanted to go see it.
