Jurassic Park
I watched this an insane number of times as a kid. I would probably be amazed if I knew the actual count. Still in my top 10 favorite movies of all time.


The Mummy
My first dvd. I didn't have a dvd player, but I watched this on our family computer once a day for an entire summer. I regret nothing!

High school was rough. Went through so many VHS tapes of that movie

I did the same in high school with Pulp Fiction. I think it came to VHS when I was in 8th grade and watched it pretty much everyday coming home from school. I believe I was around 300 times and also went through many copies of the tape. I used to have the film memorized and would sadly play games with the film where I would just stare at one corner of the screen the entire time it played. Funny enough, since I did exhaust myself on the film I have probably only seen it 6 times since my 10th year of high school and those 6 times were the only times I ever watched in widescreen. I watched it again last year and despite completely falling off Tarantino's bandwagon (I have only seen his post Pulp Fiction films only about twice each except Jackie Brown which I haven't seen since its opening week in theaters), I think the film is still a wonderful clever exercise that is still so exciting.

Other films worth mentioning that I have watched way too many times: Down by Law (probably around 30 times or more), Annie Hall (probably also around 30 times and most of these times were in high school), Babe (I would say around 25 times), Brazil (all different versions are probably around 25 times), Seven Samurai (around 20 times), Crimes and Misdemeanors (around 20 times), and hmm, I guess I will need to think about it some more. Movies I saw in theaters the most are: Freddy Got Fingered, American Beauty (I was 17!), Fight Club (I was still 17!), Being John Malkovich (yep, I was 17 still), Moulin Rouge (I took so many different dates to this), Ameile, Life is Beautiful, and the Dark Knight (all at 5 times). I don't think I could ever do that again.

Whisper of the Heart is an amazing movie. Only yesterday was pretty sweet too. I haven't seen millennium actress, but i'll assume by your listing that you recommend it? It looks pretty good

Most are from when I was around middle school age, some from teens and toddler age, even fewer from high school on.

Happy Gilmore (1)
Billy Madison (2)
Beauty and the Beast
The Little Mermaid
Hercules
Liar Liar
Ace Ventura, both
Hot Fuzz
The Big Lebowski
Monty Python's The Meaning of Life


That might not be top ten even, I'll add them when I think of them. My brother and I used to watch the same set of movies during summer breaks in middle school and all of them would be on the list but I can't think of them all. I don't watch a lot of movies really.

50 First Dates. I've probably seen it at least 70 times or more. It was the movie that was being shown at the front of the store when I used to work at Circuit City, and since I was the one watching the front doors, I got to see it over...and over...and over...and over...and over again.

I've watched Wet Hot American Summer countless times. Fart track on, fart track off, both a lot.

I saw Grindhouse 3 days in a row in theaters with the same people. That was fun.

Good choice there man, I have watched it countless times BRU, but the only movie I have watched over 50 times is Saving Private Ryan, I even thought of writing Steven Spielberg a letter thanking him for making it because it is that good, seriously.

I've seen There Will Be Blood and The Assassination of Jesse James about 6 or 7 times each.

Never miss Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Gladiator, Braveheart, The Rock, Rocky IV and a few others just because they're fun movies.

Strangely enough, I loved the LOTR trilogy but I have more trouble watching them with every year that passes.

Lord of the Rings 1.

For the simple fact that there was a time where I basically started the movie *every* night. Then fell asleep. Therefore, I kept starting it the next day, and always would I fall asleep while watching it. It just was so nice to only listen to it while my eyes were already closed. And no, the movie isn´t as boring as to make one fall asleep, it was my own fault for always starting it when I was already too tired to really watch it.

Good times.

Strange list, but I rewatches these a lot:

Dragon ball movies
Predator
Terminator 2
Ashes of time
Chungking Express
2046
Happy Together
Fight Club
Drunken master 2
The Crow

I'm sure ghostbusters, aliens, bttf were watched a lot but I was really young, star wars strangely was the least watched film with my family, they always changes the channel when they show them on tv, so I've never actually seen them until I decided to watch them myself last year.
