spending 30hours of my life in a dark room watching a big blue dong on screen might call for some kind of rehab {nm}

Most times I saw a movie; Tin Cup, Taken,Tremors, Rushmore... they never tire SequelsFund May 12, 07:47

Most times in a theatre; Mysterious Island, Hornets nest, any Sergio Leone-western JMT-NL May 12, 07:50

Wow...I just realized; Leone should be in my top10 directors list. Great moviestoryteller and innovator JMT-NL May 12, 07:52

LOTR trilogy each twice in theater, would go again to see on big screen. {nm} forlorne May 12, 08:17

good call ! I saw the first one 4 times ( in a theatre.... in a months time ) JMT-NL May 12, 08:21

The Godfather. {nm} jjmarino May 12, 08:55

14x in theater for The Dark Knight Rises, 10x for Watchmen and Skyfall. MrZero May 12, 09:29

Why? Why would you waste that much money to see any movie that many times in such a short window of time. {nm} fourstars May 12, 10:31

Maybe MrZero works at a movie theater? {nm} RazorHawk May 12, 10:36

But, "watching" implies some degree of attention. Don't theater employees just begin to tune it out? And, often get their exposure broken up edzep - Port Monkey! May 12, 11:20

no...just waited years to see these movies (15 years for Watchmen); marginal utility diminished slowly MrZero May 12, 11:53

In the 70s I also had an interest in the industry, subcribing to Variety around Star Wars and Superman in 1977-78... {nm} KalElFan May 12, 13:36

One reason I saw those so many times, in crowded theaters, was to experience audience reaction and understand why those went Top 5. {nm} KalElFan May 12, 13:38

21 times for "The Empire Strikes Back". Last one to see more than once in the theatres was BATM2. {nm} second gary May 12, 14:10

Others I recall: "Memento," "Topsy-Turvy," "The Perfect Storm," "LOTR: The Two Towers." {nm} second gary May 12, 14:49

Usual Suspects (over ten times) The Hunt for Red October (even more that that!) {nm} MillerBoy1979 May 12, 14:35
