OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

I usually don't see a movie more than once, but for a stretch there I was torn in loyalities to friends, so i saw the same movie multiple times.

I normally NEVER pay for a movie twice.

Independence Day (7 times, I hated it at first got better as I saw it more)

Men in Black (5 times, friends kept thinking it would cheer me up)

Star Wars: New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi (3 times, first all by themselves each, then twice as marathons)

Star Wars: Phantom Menace (3 times, this was odd, once in Texas, once in Florida, once in Pennsylvania)

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones (2 times)

Im sure there's been a few others.. Usually the big Sci-Fi major production gigs. When my friends wanted to see it and so did I but scheduling met I had to see it more than once.

Saw Men IN black Twice, now that you mentioned it.


I saw Shrek 3 times

and Pirates of the Caribbean 4 times!

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

The only movie I've ever seen more than once in the theater is Wayne's World. I saw it 3 times! I expected to hate it the first time I saw it, and I loved it! It's still one of my favorites...

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

I saw Requiem for a dream twice in the movies....

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

OH yeah I saw Contact (Jodie Foster) twice, or was it called First Contact.

Anyway.. the first time I saw it there was an idiot smoking in a theatre (not mine) that set off the fire alarms.. stopped the movie. Strange cause it was at the part where they first try using the machine and lights were flashing in the theatre so I thought it was a cool part of the show, until the lights went up and the screen went dark.

Some people paniced and ran out but I was ticked off. It was a 10pm show and it was getting late and I REALLY wanted to see this movie, so I stuck around.

Found out it was a false alarm, got a free ticket and went back to the see the rest of the movie. Lost like a 30 of time and 5 mins of the movie.

Got out close to midnight. It was an odd night. 3 guys who had seen me stick around, sat next to me for the rest of the movie and took me out to dinner after the movie. Ended up being harmless but not my type so I left them after dessert.

I used to see movies A LOT by myself. Never thought a guy would actually HIT on me at a movie theatre tho! haha


Later on I saw it again.. complete without interruptions!

The Rocky Horror Picture Show about 200 times!

Grease
Batman
The Phantom Menace
Cool as Ice (I was a huge Vanilla Ice fan)
La Bamba
The Lost Boys

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

I believe I saw Purple Rain twelve times!!!!!


And I'm guessing all the John Hughes movies multiple times. I had kept a list when I was in HS of all the movies I saw those 4 years ... wonder if I have it hiding away someplace.

I think Romancing The Stone more than once too. It'll all be movies from 82-86.

I never go to the movies anymore ... (and obviously it's been that way for a while!!)



I just remembered - I saw AP The Spy Who Shagged Me with FH and then I brought my mom to see it.


And I wish I had gone to see ELF more than once.

When I was younger, I would live in the theaters and would check out good movies more than once. My all-time would be The Outsiders which I saw 9 times on different occasions.

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

I saw Return of the Jedi 6.5 times.
I saw Indiana Jones and the temple of doom 4 times.
I saw Witness 2 times.
(My mom was a bit of a Harrison Ford fan when I was small.)
As I got older I saw
Titanic 4 times.
Austin Powers Spy who shagged me 2 times.

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

The only three I've seen in the theater more than once are Rocky Horror, Ferris Bueller, and Dead Man (Jim Jarmusch movie with Johnny Depp).

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

For me it's The Matrix (first one only) and The Sixth Sense!

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

I saw Chicago at the movie theater 3x! I love that movie!

Re: OctGroom got me thinking, what MOVIES have you seen more than once in the theatres (or wanted to)

Gladiator!!!!
I didn't see it until late in the release and then went to see it 6 more times in the theater.

Pirates of the Caribbean, twice in the theater and then I bought the DVD.

E.T. I saw it three times in the theater, cried every time. When it came out on DVD I bought it and didn't cry at all.

Edited to say: Rocky Horror - I have no idea how many times I have seen that in the theater.
