have you ever watched a film more than 15 times?
for example your favourite film. which is that?

I think I have seen the Lost In Translation more than 20 times. That is my personal favourite film.

[uhrgl]

There are a couple VHS tapes I wore out, however many viewings that may be:

White Men Can't Jump
A River Runs Through It (I put it on when I wanted to take a nap -- I'd be passed out by the time the boys were adults)
Star Wars (of course)

[bgundu]

Napolean Dynamite
Mighty Peking Man
Anaconda (it's so bad... it's funny)

[J.R. Hudson]

Jaws, Star Wars, Raiders, The Thing, Halloween

'tooooooooooons' of times (over 20 easily)

[Steve Strickland]

I think I've watched The Warriors at least twenty times. Oh yeah, when I was a kid, I watched Rocky II almost every time it came on HBO one summer. Back then it was like two times a day.

[HorseFilms]

I think I've watched Halloween more than any other movie. I watched it again last week, just to dissect Dean Cundey's lighting. It was educational, to say the least.

[kai]

Nightmare Before Christmas is a regular... the Band of Brothers series I watch bi-monthly.

[NO CA$H]

Fight club, I've seen it about 40 times probably.




Anaconda (it's so bad... it's funny)

Anaconda has some serious continuity problems.

[Jeremy Ordan]

When I was in college I lived right by a highway, so I now need to fall asleep with noise in the background.

Every night I go to bed watching Fight Club and have for the past 2 years... So you could say that I have seen that movie over 600 times. It is one of my fave films of all time though.

[Mythfit]

Groundhog Day

So I married an Ax Murderer





Nightmare Before Christmas is a regular.


The El Capitan theater in LA is playing Nightmare on the big screen for the holidays.

[Hectorxd]

I remember one summer me and my brother watched terminator 2 every week. SPR and american graffiti and star wars... and the first and last indiana movies..

[Taylor Moore]

I'm with Kai, Band of Brothers...

[TimothyJinx]

Edited to add:
I almost forgot, the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I watch them at LEAST once a month. I LOVE those movies!!

[J.R. Hudson]

I'm with Kai, Band of Brothers...

I'm getting there with BOB. I've seen the complete series 4 times now. (In sequence)

I'm sure most people could guess that I've seen the Tank Girl movie close to a billion times. honestly I have. It's bad.

Tank Girl
Goonies
Bandits (The German flick)
Resident Evil
Napoleon Dynamite

I am going to add a new list of movies I've seen a couple dozen times but do not own.

Lethal Weapons

Every time they are on TV I watch them.

I've seen the Band of Brothers series 3 times... very good stuff.

I've seen Wizard of Oz and A Wonderful Life about fiddy times each.

[OLBoy]

T2
Batman
Commando
Dumb and Dumber
Legend of the Drunken Master
Rumble in the Bronx
Out for Justice
Hard Boiled
Die Hard on TBS (yippie kai yay, my friend)

[krestofre]

Grosse Pointe Blank

Now that is an underappreciated film!

I actually see most movies more than 15 times. I guess I'm repetitive.

Blade Runner is a big one for me. 2001. Planet of the Apes. Hm ... sci-fi themed I guess. :)

[CallaghanFilms]

Star Wars and Raiders, for sure, all time greats...and anything with Humphrey Bogart.


You stole my thunder on the Bogart legacy. I screen Casablanca a "couple-a-three" times each year...actually "screen" is the wrong word. What I meant to say is that I exist on another emotional plane of existence for roughly 102 minutes. (At least a hundred viewings thus far.)

[Pale Rider]

Raiders, All of Shyamalan's films, POTC, Lethal Weapon.... those are the biggies that I always end up watching

[kai]

OOo Goonies. Good one Tank Girl. Also Back to the Future. Classic. (But I love the 80s too though)

[ChuckS]

On Golden Pond
Empire of the Sun
Goonies

[Isaac_Brody]

Definitely Lethal Weapon 1.
Spaceballs when I was growing up.
Stand by Me.
The Mosquito Coast.
Raiders.
Star Wars Ep 4.
Ghostbusters
Back to the Future
Commando (not anymore)

[craigbowman]

Blade Runner (Original and Director's Cut)
Life of Brian
2001: A Space Odessy
Clockwork Orange
Dr. Strangelove
Lawrence of Arabia
Bridge on the River Kwai
Alien (First One)
High Plains Drifter
Apocalypse Now
Godfather (First Two - Third less than a dozen)
The Party
Taxi Driver
Replacement Killers

Sure glad for DVD as several of these had the tapes wear out! Many other movies have lots of multiple viewings but not over 50, at least not yet!

[Robert86]

Freddy Got Fingered
Requim for a Dream
Mr.Deeds

[tankgirl]

OOo Goonies. Good one Tank Girl. Also Back to the Future. Classic. (But I love the 80s too though)

I have to agree. The 80's hate a lot of greats. I was watching Lucas the other week. I forgot how "80's" it looked. Of course the last time I saw was probably then. Speaking of 80's I am going to add Footloose to my list! I love Kevin Bacon movies. Except for the Woodsman. That kind of freaked me out a bit.

[Isaac_Brody]

the film I've seen so many many many times is Dirty Dancing. THAT is my favorite movie!

I carried a watermelon? :thumbsup:

[Taryllou]

I carried a watermelon? :thumbsup:

[Kirk Gillock]

The Sound of Music

[Jazz Dog]

I have watched Down by Law easily 50 times. Don't know why but it just makes me feel good. I sometimes just have it playing while I a doing stuff around the house. Tom Waits is the most original talent there is in films and music......I watch Y tu mama tambien a lot too...

is that a film or a show?

[thartley]

Actually, a bit of both! haha!!!

LIPS! (http://www.rockyhorror.com/)

Its showing at midnight on Halloween here and since my birthday is the next day, I am thinking of picking up some saukraut, rice, and toilet paper, and revisiting my youth. hahaha!!! But then again, maybe I'll just sit in the back and behave.

Family Guy gets alot of play too, but that just because I can never remember ALL the jokes in an episode.

[Taryllou]

and the European "Taxi 2". I know the full script by heart
It's not "European" but French :grin:
you know this movie in the US?!!!!! wow most of the times you don't know our movies or you make an US version of them just as "Un Indien dans la Ville" has become "Un Indien à New York" (an Indian in New York, well I don't know the English title) or as "les Visiteurs", such a good and funny movie where two men from Middle Ages are sent to 1990's, from a History tipically European, you made "les Visiteurs en Amérique" (the Visitors in the US, or whatever the English title is!).
wow I'm so surprised to see that you know one of our movies! Is Sami Naceri still the main character of the movie?!!!! lol

[Taryllou]

I don't know if there is an US version, but since every French movies have theie US version, that's the reason why I asked if you saw the original version or another. but actually I don't know at all if there's an US version...

[surf]

haven't you heard of the American Taxi? with the yellow taxi car and the driver is a woman and she jumps over the building highway, just like in Taxi 1

I'm not much of a multi-watcher, but I've watched ALL of the Star Wars movies so many times it's unthinkable. And that was before my son got into em and I watched em a hundered times more. He wanted to see Episode III in theaters 5 times, and he asks about once a week when we'll have it on DVD. He's looking very much forward to seeing Yoda into hiding in the extras. I have him on (DVX) tape answering Star Wars trivia at age 3 (he's 4 now) like "What color is Luke's light saber"....."Blue and Green"......."Which one is it blue in?" "Jawas" (what he calles New Hope)...."Which one is it green in?"......"Ewoks". Just for the record, he calls Empire "Doggie Doggie Robot Feet" because of the AT-ATs. We've watched them together many, many times, as I've been home with him every day for most of his life. He asks the most amazing questions about whats going on....I guarantee you that Star Wars has created more synaptic connections in his brain that anything else, and he genuinely "gets" the morals of it all, right down to Aniken turning into a "bad boy". He even knows that it's wrong for C3-P0 to kick R2....when he first started watching it, he would say "3P0 needs a spankin".

I watch Star Wars to learn how to live, and to gain knowledge of The Living Force.....that shit is real.

[i_&_t]

I watch Star Wars to learn how to live, and to gain knowledge of The Living Force.....that shit is real.

hell yeah.
he he the next DVXfest should challenge us to create something that can intelligently be titled doggie doggie robot feet. kids are so cool. :)

a few more over-and-overs....Ghostbusters, For a Few Dollars More, the Killer and Akira.

[JoeFowler]

I guess if I thought about my whole life I have seen a few films over 20 times, but I don't usually do that. I own a few DVDs because I only wanted to buy the ones I will watch over and over, but then I don't. I like new, but ironically I don't go to the movies hardly at all anymore. Except Grizzly Man, saw that last week (obviously.)

[surf]

you can change to keyboard set. fir examle in the Hunagrain there are: ö ü ó ő ú é á ű.

cygnet74 that is a huge huge huge list. do you have any free time left?
