60 times? God, what a waste of time! :p

Are you sure, suspect 5?

Including the 30 or so that you don't name, that's a total of about 115 movies that you've seen at least 25 times.

Figuring on an average of 29 viewings each, that works out to about 3,335 movies watched.

That's an average of more than one movie per day, every single day for the past nine years!



(Not to mention all the other movies that you've presumably watched that aren't in the 25 times or more category.)

Yeah 25 viewings is more than you think.

Well, us older folks have had more years to watch movies. Between repeat viewings on cable (it always makes me laugh when I feel compelled to watch a movie that I have on DVD) and the times I've plugged them in the VCR or DVD player, I would say that there are probably more, like Die Hard and Jaws. If I can recite the dialogue almost verbatim, then I must have seen them dozens of times, right?

DA and Gina, I'm never sure if I watch The Blues Brothers for the music or the laughs, but I guess if you get both out of one movie, that's even better, right? The one thing that shocks me nowadays when I see it is how very THIN Dan Akroyd was back then. And, btw, every time my husband and I get in an elevator, one of us will hum The Girl From Ipanema until the other one starts to giggle.

Once more...

I'm 26 and an only child, I always had HBO as a child and I used to watch movies again and agian, till I learned the dialogue. I used to force my father to watch movies with me, heck half of the list he's probably seen 20+ times.

Movies are really the only thing that I do...do, I'm not much of one for going out...unless it is to the theater. Heck I've even wathced three movies in the theater in a day before. Or rented five movies and watched them in a day, gone back the next day and rented five more.

Though if your figures are true it does seem a bit off, perhaps but I know that I have seen every movie listed at least 20 times it gets foggy because I don't really keep count the only movies I've ever keept count of are Commando and The Crow, and that is only for a partial section of the times that I watched them. Commando I rented every week for a year so at least 52 viewings for that, plus all the times I watched it on TV. The Crow I borrowed after already having seen it multiple times and watched it every day for a month so thirty+ viewings there.
Also for a time I lived with a friend out in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma, no car, no phone, no cable, and no reception only a giant box of recorded movies to pass the time (I'm not an outdoors type), and only a handful of those titles were really that good. Hell even when he got DirectTV it was raining half the time so you couldn't watch anything, but that box of movies. So yeah I used to live in Oklahoma not much to do there but watch movies, I mean I lived in rual Oklahoma which is pretty much what you picture when you think about it - so yeah I watched a lot of movies.

edit: I've watched movies seriously for as long as I can remember. In fact it is only recently that I have fallen off pace as far as watching movies go now that I have DVR and can record all the TV programs that I want to watch but can't catch. For a time I would say that I averaged at least one movie a day minimum for years, like since I was six.

We all need to get together and watch the Death Wish Trilogy. Who isn't up for seeing Bronson whack some thugs 25+ times?!?!

There are five Death Wish filmd, but I'm up for some Bronson ass-kicking.

Godfather 1, 2, and 3 (yes 3!)
Reservoir Dogs (way over 25 viewings )
Goodfellas
Scarface
Batman
Batman Returns
Pulp Fiction
Ferris Buellers Day off
Carlitos Way
Superman
Superman 2
Rocky 3
Planet of the apes (original)
Star Wars
Wizard of Oz

probably quite a few more....
My wife just shakes her head whenever I pop any of these movies in.

I wasn't doubting you, suspect, I just found it remarkable.

I'm not very outdoorsy either, and I've had days of watching 5 or 6 myself. I gues a few of those can make up for a lot of the days you missed.

There was a weekend once when my son and I watched 16 from late Friday afternoon until early Sunday evening

I tend to pop a movie in when I come home, and let it run in the background while I'm doing other things. I've seen Godfather I so many times that, at one point, I decided to make it off-limits until I had watched every other movie in my cabinet. It took me from before Thanksgiving until after the Fourth of July.

Scarface
THe Godfather
pulp fiction
friday
all the starwars films
the Gonnies
ghostbusther
Aliens
Goodfellas
New Jack city

I forgot The Beastmaster

I used to watch it and then run around my house with my Mom's Icing spreader, I used to use it as a sword...I must have ruined like three of them. As a result I think that made that my mothers most hated movie.

I've been around a long, long time, so I'll reply with films that I've seen, all or in part, more than 500 times:
--The GF Trilogy (close to 2000 times).
--Laura (1000 times at least)
--Cavalleria Rusticana (Zeffirelli, almost 1000 times)
--Goodfellas.
--Raging Bull
--Mean Streets
--Seconds (Frankenheimer's masterpiece)
--The Thing (Carpenter)
--The Atomic Bomb Movie (documentary)
--Metropolis
--Nosferatu (Murnau)
--True Confessions
--It's a Gift
--Fail-Safe
--The Wild One
--Bugsy
--Last Picture Show
--Duck Soup
--Blade Runner
--Ten Commandments
--Jimi Plays Berkeley
--Apocalypse Now (and Redux)
--Arguing the World (documentary)
--China Syndrome

Well, the only movie I can be certain that I must have seen at least 25 times is GF/GFII, but I never really took a real count. :p

There are a few that I have seen many times, but not sure how many. Some just are plain good, some just fun to watch, and some I can't explain why I continue to watch them but I do. :p

Anyway, in no particular order, here are a few:

Die Hard
American Werewolf In London
Overboard
Poltergeist
The Seventh Voyage Of Sinbad (I loved that since a kid) :p
First Blood
Dirty Harry

There's more, but that's all I can think of right now.


TIS

TIS - I forgot about Overboard! Shame on me, especially considering how much I love Kurt Russell. Arturo! Katerina!

And I know what you mean about Die Hard. I used to work in a 21 story building, and the elevators made that same Ping! If I stayed after hours, and I would hear that elevator Ping!, it used to totally freak me out.
