If we’re counting Christmas movies, then I’ve probably seen A Child’s Christmas in Wales (with Denholm Elliott) at least more times than anyone on this board, as it’s been in the yearly rotation since about 1995.
I’ve seen Hrútar (Rams) twice. I think it’s a magnificent film and I’d watch it again, but let’s be honest, I probably already hold the record for viewing frequency when it comes to this movie. It is, shall we say, a bit niche. (I.e., bleak, sad, almost entirely about sheep.)
Probably Tombstone. I saw it somewhere around two dozen times between regular theatres and dollar movies back in the day and innumerable times on DVD and streaming since.
Nice 
I’ve seen Escanaba in da Moonlight at least 20 times, because I always play it for my hunting buddies when they come over to hunt.
There’s a very obscure short film called The Paraclete that I’ve seen a couple dozens times. It was a master’s thesis for a film student. I have it on DVD, but it’s now on YouTube. Very well done, IMO.
I watch The Best of Times at least once a year. I’ve only met one other person who loves it as much as I do.
Rob Roy, I love me some Liam Neeson
I watch event horizon when I go to bed most nights. So I’ve seen it, or at least the first half hundreds of times.
Anybody here ever heard of 1988’s The Blue Iguana ?
If not, then I claim that one.
Joe VS The Volcano - I love it, everyone else is wrong.
Funny thing, I actually watched Ice Pirates a few months ago. Found it online somewhere. Doesn’t really hold up, of course, but there are some funny moments still.
That movie is awesome.
From the ages of four to five my little brother played Short Circuit and **Flight of the Navigator **every.single.day. I’ve seen them each a hundred times easily.
Oh, I’m sure it doesn’t which is why I’ll never watch it again!
We weren’t allowed to watch much TV when we were kids, but every time The Wizard of Oz was shown on TV, we watched it. (Maybe once a year? I can’t remember.)
Then when our kids were little, we bought the Wizard of Oz 50th Anniversary DVD. We then proceeded to watch it at least twice a week for the next 5 years.
As a kid I must have watched Mary Poppins easily a couple of hundred times, but I think I might not be the only one. It’s easy to stack up the numbers when you watch it nearly every day.
The Waterbabies was my other less common love, and I might well be the only one who’s watched that a couple of hundred times.
The other day I watched the Terminator for what I think is quite possibly the hundredth time. More than 30 years of owning it in various formats watching it at least four times a year except for the years when I had no TV = over 120 times, probably more like 160 or 170 because I rewatched it more often in the first few years.
I bet I’ve seen The Adventures of Ford Fairlane more than anyone else.
It’s great, perhaps the best villain in all cinema.
But it is sleazy gross in parts. Even the loving scenes with Liam and Jessica Lange.
‘I want to weave a silk purse in your quim, my darling’. Eww…
Well that seems very interesting. One of these evenings when I have a screen to myself, I’ll try to watch it half as many times as you.
If I can find it streaming, that is. ETA- appears to be on Netflix.
Ok, so sue me. My three favorite films of all time are “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “Citizen Kane,” and “The Third Man.”
Of the three, my favorite is “2001,” but I will only see it in a movie theater in 70mm, so I’ve only seen it six times.
I first saw “Citizen Kane” in high school in 1968, as part of our American History teacher’s lesson on yellow journalism. I was so blown away by it at 16 years old I watched it three times over two days. And this was before I’d seen “2001” in a movie theater. In the last 50 years, I guess I’ve seen “Kane” 20 times, three times in a movie theater.
I didn’t see “The Third Man” until 1978, on television, but fortunately it was on my local PBS affiliate as a classic film, shown with no commercials.
Christ, in the last year alone, I think I’ve watched “The Third Man” three times. I’ve seen a pristine print in a movie theater three times. In the last 40 years I’ve watched it three or four times each year. I’ve lost count, but I know I’ve seen it at least thirty times - maybe forty times. I’ve sat with Roger Ebert as he did a frame by frame analysis of the picture. (I’ve also sat with Ebert as he did a frame by frame analysis of “2001” and “Citizen Kane.”) When I watch “The Third Man” I can pretty much recite the entire script from memory. (Yes, I’m a total pain in the ass to with the picture with!)
And each time I see it I find something new!
You asked what time it is and I’ve told you how to build a watch.
But the answer is “The Third Man.”
