There are some movies we love to watch over and over again. Some watch a good movie repeatedlyt in theatres, others just buy a DVD and watch it whenever they feel like. What's the maximum number of times you have watched a movie? Which one and why?

I have watched a few movies around 6-7 times.

To date I have seen The Rocky Horror Picture Show 342 in the theater and a at various parties 22. It is the only movie I have ever counted, but there are quite a few movies I have seen a dozen or more times and will continue to watch as time goes by.

I have probably seen Butch and Sundance 20 times easily and will be adding another one after dinner.

  A lot of mine are yearly watches. Ever since I was a kid I sort of rebelled and decided there was no way in hell I would watch christmas movies during the christmas season. I have sort of bent that rule a little bit after I became an adult went to work in retail and realized the christmas season began in April. On thanksgiving when some people curl up to watch It's a wonderful life, i pull out the godfather 1 and 2.

  Back in the day I was up to around 100 theater views of RHPS (& was in the floor show a few times--as Columbia.)

  I was Brad in the floor show for while. I finally bowed out after they got a new Janet, my girlfriend's mother, things were a little awkward to say the least.

Do any of you people have kids?

I watched Monsters Inc so many times I could draw the whole movie frame by frame from memory.

  Yes I have kids and a TV in the other room that I play their movies on. I don't think I could handle watching Monsters Inc two or three times a day in full surround sound. I also don't have a VCR in the living room so I also have a practical reason for playing their movies somewhere else.

  oh I've done my share of that. This is also where mom fits in. I find it a much better alternative of reading to my boy rather than forcing myself to sit through Shrek or TMNT again and again and again. I can get away with the reading so i go for it. Of course now that he is almost ten I find him borrowing my movies, I have had to hide basic instinct.

I really don't like to think of how many hundreds of hours I have spent watching Star Wars.

And it probably isn't even anywhere near first place on my most watched list.

abbott and costello meet frankenstein.
let's see, about 118 times.
why? because it was on the million dollar movie at least 523 times when i was growing up and only had four channels on the tv.
