How many times have you seen the movies you've seen the most times?

[Oeditpus Rex]

Me:

"Monty Python and the Holy Grail" — somewhere between 55 and 60. (I stopped counting at 50.)

Then...

"American Graffiti" — 44, I think.

"Horse Feathers" — around 25-30, prolly.

[graywarrior]

1. Big Lebowski-I lost count

[Oeditpus Rex]

3. Well, that's a reasonably accurate numeration

"One... two... I lost count."



:P

[graywarrior]

6. I wan't even stoned, neither

or was I? Ok, more than 20....or 30....or 10.

[ogneopasno]

2. Star Wars, at the very least 70.

[RevolutionaryActs]

4. Moulin Rouge, around 100 times.

:shrug:

[KitchenWitch]

5. Wizard of Oz - somewhere over 60 times.

Rocky Horror Picture Show - ~40 times

Finding Nemo - ~40 times (it was K's nebulizer movie - she would only let us give her the nebs if Finding Nemo was in the DVD player)

Monty Python and the Holy Grail - ~10 times

[Graybeard]

7. Wizard Of Oz every year of my life since I was 4 yrs old.

There was a theater in my NYC neighborhood that played it every year in the 40s and early 50s until television took over. Believe it or not we watched it on black and white TV...with the whole movie in B&W! Then it became an event on color TV every year. Now with DVD I continue the tradition.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

8. The most I have ever seen a movie (even my most favorite ones)

is like, maybe ...3 times. I don't know why that is :shrug:

now, ask me about "I Love Lucy" :D That is a different story altogether :o and, I still don't know why that is :shrug:

:hi:

[Oeditpus Rex]

9. Me neither

Nor "MASH" nor... well, any of the other old shows I can watch over and over and over. :shrug:









"You don't want to step on the Brains' toes, Fingers."



:D

[Tuesday Afternoon]

12. oh dear...she wants the house, then she doesn't, then she does.

:rofl:

[Oeditpus Rex]

15. And she ends a sentence a preposition with

"Give them the check back, Ricky."

:P



*squirt*



"That'll be five hundred and fifty dollars."

[Tuesday Afternoon]

16. How do you remember it line for line?

amazing.

here is an interesting clip (for a Lucy geek like me :))

[Oeditpus Rex]

23. Classic

:rofl:



Proves that candy-making, bread-making and grape-stomping weren't her only skillz. :D

[Tuesday Afternoon]

26. Lucy had mad skillz. Yes, indeed.

;)

[nytemare]

10. Rocky Horror near 50+

In the theater, mind you.

[reyd reid reed]

11. Maybe six or so?

Definitely under 10, then I'm on to something different.

:shrug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

13. ADHD?

[reyd reid reed]

17. Nah...

nothing that glamorous or exciting.

More like..."Mom, can I....", "Mom, when can you....", "Mom, I don't wanna....", "Mom, I need...."

and by then, well, I just bury my nose in a book and forget about watching anything at all.

:shrug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

20. Clearly, you need to sit in the balcony

[JohnnieGordon]

14. Evil Dead 2 - over 100 times.. nt

[flvegan]

18. Rocky Horror Picture Show *hangs head*

Over 100 times, in 3 states.

[LeftyMom]

27. GET OUT OF MY BRAIN!

That was going to be my answer. Not quite that many times though. I have a life. :P

[flvegan]

28. Puh-lease.

In real cities like Boston, Cambridge, Atlanta and Tampa, it's an honor.

[LeftyMom]

29. Tampa is not a real city. It's a clump of titty bars with some houses and a football stadium.

:P

[flvegan]

31. Like Atlanta?

[LeftyMom]

32. Atlanta isn't quite so seedy.

The humidity's even worse though. Ugh.

[RoyGBiv]

19. 67+

I saw the The Empire Strikes Back almost every week day the summer it first came out until I had to go back to school. I've seen it more times than that since the DVD release, but this was my count at the end of that summer.

I've seen Rocky Horror a lot, but not that many times I'm pretty sure.

[PBS Poll-435]

21. Erin Brockovich 50+

Best dialogue EVAH.

[Lady President]

22. The Sound of Music-- 50+

I really have no idea how many times, but well over 50.

[BeachBaby]

24. The Breakfast Club.

[Whoa_Nelly]

25. 2001: A Space Odyssey

at least 15 times, 10 in the theater.

Came away with a different meaning every time.






When it got to the part where Kier Dullea becomes a flaoting cosmic baby, my mind was always in overload.

[MrSlayer]

30. Jaws is probably number one with 100+ viewings.

I can literally quote the entire movie off the top of my head.

[Iggo]

33. Sidenote on American Graffiti.

I've seen that movie exactly twice. Once when it was new (when I was younger than the characters in the movie). Once last year (much much older, obviously).

When I was young I saw it as a coming-of-age story.
When I was older I recognized it as an end-of-an-era story.

The perspective that comes with age is a strange and wonderful thing.

[Oeditpus Rex]

35. First time I saw it, I was 17 and living it

Just 11 years later.

I recognized right away that I was a tiny element of a hallowed tradition and that I had to respect it — indeed, to revel in it.

[oshyposhy]

34. 400 plus times

The Wizard of Oz
It was the year of Wicked Witches in our house. Every single day, sometimes twice.

[Oeditpus Rex]

36. So, have you actually had sex with a flying monkey?

:hide:

[oshyposhy]
