Movie you watched the Most?

Mag · « **on:** 26 Jun 2019, 01:26 am »

I reckon I have watched 'The Good, The Bad, The Ugly' the most upwards of 100 times in my lifetime.

Runner up would be 'High Plains Drifter'.

Have quite a few movies in my collection. Generally I can re-watch a movie about 4 times before I don't care to see again, with a few exceptions.

Music on the other hand that I like. I can re-listen to 1000's of times.

What Movie have you watched the most?

Not really my choice, but I've watch That Thing You Do more than any other movie.

I rarely watch a movie more than once - no matter how good.
For a long time by a long shot, my favorite movie is (was?) Brazil by Gilliam. It's not the best* movie I've ever seen, just my favorite.
*There is no "best" movie - many stand as incredible films which stand on their own merits.

Never seen a repeat movie more than once on TV?

Nope. Even as a kid I wouldn't watch a movie again. I've never owned a TV. (They have been in places I've lived.) I now just watch movies on my computer.
I watch about 15-20 movies a month. I've always read a lot - while listening to music.

Three of my favorite movies, but I can't say I've watched them a lot, maybe two or three times tops if we're counting front to back all the way through. If we're counting coming across it halfway through while channel surfing likely dozens.

The one movie you can watch over and over and over again?

Groundhog Day

Oh, and I can never pass up the annual Kill Bill vol 1& 2 marathon.

What about Christmas movies? I’m guessing some of you watch the same Christmas movies every year, even if you won’t admit it. A Christmas Story? Wonderful Life? Christmas Carol? Scrooge? We’ll watch Best Years of Our Lives and Seven Samurai during the holidays though how that tradition started I haven’t a clue.

Yeah, that’s a good flick

I’ve seen it at least four or five times.

Part of the reason why I watched (studied) some films so many times over had to do with being a student hoping to get into the industry. When I lived in the big city, there were a number of 2nd tier discount theatres that played movies that had just finished their course in the regular theatres. The screens were relatively small but still a fair bit bigger than a typical big screen TV by today’s standard. Admission was only $2. Ah, the good old days.
