Movies that you have seen more than once at a movie theatre?

[saevel25]

I saw that @nevets88 listed a few movies he has seen more than once in theatres. I thought that would be a good idea for a thread. Off the top of my head, 

Titanic
Star Wars Force Awakens
Avatar
Star Wars Episode 3
Lord of the Rings (all three of them multiple times)

That's a short list of what I could think of off the top of my head.

I think Titanic is it for me. It was 50 cents in my college town. I saw it four or five times.

Only one, and I'll bet it's a movie you've never even heard of...O Lucky Man! Released in 1973, the British film starred Malcolm McDowell, and the cast included Hellen Mirren and Rachel Roberts. It also had a great soundtrack written and performed by former Animals' keyboardist Alan Price and his band, who also have roles in the movie. It's an amazing film!

Raiders of the Lost Ark - a couple of times when it was released and the IMAX rerelease a year or two ago.

Hitchcock's Rear Window, North by Northwest and Vertigo. Love seeing the classics in a real theatre.

All the Indiana Jones stuff. Titanic, Avatar, 101 Dalmations, Second Hand Lions.

I'm usually not one to go and see a movie more than once (that's my wife)... But there are two I did see twice:

1. Draft Day with Kevin Kostner... Saw it twice since it featured my hometown Cleveland Browns

2. Saving Mr. Banks... For the creativity, music, and history.

Lethal Weapon 4 and The Matrix were the first two I did this with -- went to see each a second time.  Considering I was in high school at the time, and had to not only get to the theater but pay for a ticket, this was an expense.  Incidentally, also two of the first movies I bought on DVD when I got a player for that format.

Off the top of my head, each of the first four Pirates of the Caribbean movies I saw multiple times (first one takes my personal record of any movie, having seen it five times in the theater, while the timing for the fourth one wasn't great and I only saw it twice on the big screen;  it was, however, the first BRD I bought only on that format);  each of the Daniel Craig 007 movies at least twice each;   Bubba Ho-Tep three times ; the first Michael Bay Transformers movie four times (as poor as the rest of the series has been, there's a line in that movie that I love every time I hear it... plus I had to see it with a handful of friends who I watched the original TV series with back in the day).

If we include re-release showings (as opposed to first run), there are quite a few movies.  I try to never pass over a theatrical screening of the first Ocean's Eleven if I can help it -- even though I own it on DVD and I don't think it really needs a theater to enjoy it.

One of my friends has probably seen Rocky several dozen times in the theater.  It's not a bad movie, but I don't see the point of seeing it so many times.

In the summer of 1986, I was in between grades 11 and 12. One of the local theatres had $1 movies on Monday-Thursday. My buddy had a cool '80 Camaro, and we'd drive around, get bored, and then we'd end up at the movie. I think we saw Ferris Bueller's Day Off six times. Other than that, I can't recall seeing any others more than once in a theatre. We thought we had a better chance of meeting girls at the theatre....turns out should have just went to the golf course

Jurassic Park.  Also the first 1/3 of the Lego Movie.  (Mistakenly thought my daughter would sit through it, had to bring my son a second time so I could finish it.  He was realllly broken up about that. :P)

[SavvySwede]

Ghostbusters 30th anniversary re-release. I think that was the only time, movies are too expensive.

[mvmac]

Spider Man 2 (2004)

X-Men: Days of Future Past 

Interstellar

[colin007]

only one has been Star Wars Force Wakes Up

 

i see Avatar here...i could not get into that movie...i thought it sucked donkey balls.

[Abu3baid]

Can't remember any..  I have seen movies multiple times, just none in the theater.

[bubble]

the rocky horror picture show. 

 

for real.

[dkolo]

There were a bunch that I saw in theaters and then came through to my College theater as part of their one-off film series, but for actual first run movies, I think it's only been the Dark Knight. I bet there's some other one I'm forgetting. New Star Wars will be on that list when I get a chance. The IMAX showtimes have either been too early or too late here recently and my schedule hasn't aligned well over the holidays.

[stealthhwk]

The force wakes up!!! Lmao!!! Thats just utter greatness!!! And you are absolutely correct on Avatar. Some of the special effects were impressive, but overall, thats three hours of my life Im never getting back. :(

None.  I don't watch very many in  a theater to begin with.
