Have you ever loved a movie so much that you saw it two days in a row?
 
Yes with Pulp Fiction.

I watched it the first time with my girl friends, and I liked it so much, and I knew that my boyfriend at the time would too, so I took him to see it the next night

jth 04-16-2006 05:25 AM

I have done it several times. Either gone to see a movie by myself and then the next day with friends. A date and next day with friends, or with family next day with friends. I haven't gone solo twice.

Most recently I saw Revenge of the Sith back to back days, and that was perhaps the last movie I recall seeing in a theater

Bacchanal 04-16-2006 06:38 AM

I did with the first American Pie. I took a date the first night, and friends the second.

I almost did it again with V For Vendetta, but the people on the second day backed out on me.

absorbentishe 04-16-2006 09:46 AM

The first one I can remember doing this for was Animal House. I was in 4th grade, and the first time I saw boobies on screen, plus my sister worked at the theater. Revenge of the Sith was another. Not doing this too often though.

Two days in a row? When I finished watching Serenity on DVD, I started again from the beginning and watched a second time.

fresnelly 04-16-2006 11:43 AM

I recently saw Prime, and immediately watched it a second time. Partly because it was confusing, but still...

Miss Ina 04-16-2006 12:14 PM

All the time with Harry Potter movies. I'll go first with my family and then with my friends the next night.

Seeing movies more than once in theatres makes me feel like I'm "friends" with them, like I know them better than anyone else in the theatre, haha.

optik_nerve 04-16-2006 12:47 PM

Ha, yea. Actually I just did it with Scary Movie 4.

I went to see it on Friday with some friends and again I went on Saturday with my girlfriend. :-)

Fremen 04-16-2006 01:58 PM

I did it with Return of the Jedi.
Went with family, then with friends the next night.
I'm sure I've done it other times, as well.

Also, I've sometimes stayed in my seat for a second viewing, when I was an early teen.
Quite illegally, too. :eek:

Gatorade Frost 04-16-2006 02:24 PM

I did it with Shrek.

Ok, I know someone is going to make fun of me but...

The summer before ninth grade (I was...14 I think) my cousin spent two weeks with us. There wasn't much to do in our town, so she talked me into seeing Encino Man, which I wasn't interested in, but it was better than staying at home. We went, and I developed a crush on Brendan Fraser that would do any teenage girl proud. We went six nights in a row. That's right...six. We would have gone seven, but the theater was closed on Sunday and my cousin left on Monday. I don't think I've seen any other movie two nights in a row since then.

Redjake 04-16-2006 06:21 PM

I went to see Matrix two close nights in a row;

I went to see Matrix: Reloaded 7 times in theaters. I think two of those times may be been sequential.

sbscout 04-16-2006 06:36 PM

okay, I'm old remember?

The Trial of Billy Jack........ go ahead and laugh.... but...

something about the scenes with the national guard and the students....

vietnam was still in the news.........

El Pollo 04-16-2006 08:57 PM

As a kid I went to see Back to the Future in the afternoon with a friend. I went in blindly, not knowing what the movie was about. I liked it so much, I ended up going back out with my family the same night to see it again.

blahblah454 04-16-2006 09:20 PM

I saw underworld 2 two days in a row in the theater!

ShaniFaye 04-17-2006 03:07 AM

I did it with Titanic, 2 showings in one day and another showing the next day (go ahead and laugh its ok)

I saw it a total of 8 times in the theater, I've lost count of how many times on DVD

itch vaccine 04-17-2006 04:07 AM

Nope, if I ever watch the same movie twice in a row, I'd probably sleep through it.

But if I'm going with a hot date, I wouldn't mind, even if the show if a load of crap :lol:

Probably this multiple viewing thingy only works for movie buffs~?

cyrnel 04-17-2006 04:45 AM

Sure. Many movies, home and theatre. When I was young, because I loved the first time. Now that I'm old, because I forgot the first time. :D

maleficent 04-17-2006 04:55 AM

the theater? rarely... I hate going to the movie theater... If I wanted to be annoyed by a bunch of children, I'd have some...

At home, I'll watch the same movie over and over again, most fo the time it's because i'm multi tasking and rarely pay atttention to the entire movie... Watch it enough and I'll get thru the entire thing. (I'm kinda like TBS on Christmas Day, I'll just play A Christmas Story over and over again, and eventually I will watch the entire movie)

cyrnel 04-17-2006 05:12 AM

Good point. My last double-trip to a theatre was a very, very long time ago. They're doing well if I make it twice a year, and that's usually at the prompting of young ones.

Frosstbyte 04-17-2006 09:31 AM

Embarassingly, I watched Cruel Intentions 2 three times in less than 8 hours on the drunken night that we discovered it at the local video store.

We watched Cruel Intentions 2 once, then watched The Skulls 2, decided that Cruel Intentions 2 was a vastly superior movie (they both star the same actor, humorously enough), watched it again, then different people came to the house and we had to show them how good it was so we watched it a third time.

What a night.

MPower 04-17-2006 02:14 PM

Empire Strikes Back, Raiders, Alien, Cat People and Tarzan (w/Bo) comes to mind.

snowy 04-17-2006 02:27 PM

Did it with Girl With a Pearl Earring...loved that movie. Really loved looking at Colin Firth, though.

Did it again with Love Actually...loved that movie too. Should note Colin Firth is also present in that movie.

A pattern, perhaps?

heccubusiv 04-21-2006 01:56 PM

The first Austin Powers i watched for 3 days straight. The first lord of the rings i saw opening night and the next night

evilbeefchan 04-22-2006 01:46 AM

The Aristocrats and Spiderman 2. Aristocrats I saw on 2 seperate dates(call it a test to see how my sense of humor got along with their's). Spiderman 2 was because, well, it was SPIDERMAN 2~!!!

hagatha 04-22-2006 04:07 AM

Did it with The Gift....loved the film so much and cried at the end both times.

Locke7 04-22-2006 08:29 PM

LOL, yeah, the movie titanic. I was trying to get this girl to like me. For some reason it felt like the rich girl and the poor boy. We went to the theater 2 days in a row, and then 7 times after LOL. I got the girl. Ah to be a freshmen in college again. LOL

rthmchgs 04-23-2006 10:37 AM

Oh yeah, a bunch of times. My friends and I went to see Episode II a couple of days in a row. Now I know it has some bad parts and all, but when it's porjected digitally, it looked awesome. And some of my friends wanted to see it on different days. I couldn't say no. Oh yeah, and I watched Gladiator 5 times in 5 days, a few Thanksgivings ago....I may have a problem...heh.

bparker805 04-23-2006 12:38 PM

Im not sure if I saw them in back to back days, but I saw both Robin Hood and New Jack City each five times while they were in the theater. Needless to say, Im a big Ice-T fan and looking back on it, New Jack City isn't the best date movie.

m0rpheus 04-24-2006 08:48 PM

Most recent one I've done it with was Serenity. I HAD to see it opening night, but a good buddy of mine was working that night and had to see it the next night... well I couldn't force him to go by himself... :lol:

Braingrenade 04-25-2006 12:24 AM

I watched Shaolin Soccer 10 times the first week i had it. Totally crazy, now that I think of it.

Sugarmouse 04-25-2006 04:03 PM

Ive seen les mis at theatre 2ce, and natural born killers movie almost every week since i first saw it when i was 13 lol

shyr_15 05-06-2006 10:53 AM

yes! last samurai--watched it three days in a row :D

Willravel 05-06-2006 11:14 AM

-Star Wars 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 (I got to watch the rereleases of 4, 5, and 6), but it wasn't just 2 days in a row, I watched each of them at 3 shows a day for 2 days. Thats 6 times total in a weekend.
-Superman Returns, I plan on watching this several times in a row.
-Casino Royale, I plan on watching this at every showing on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of it's release. I'm a big Bond fan.

gcurl21 05-06-2006 12:36 PM

watched Old Boy numerous times just cause it was a insane concept to me. great f'n money

Ample 05-06-2006 05:41 PM

A few Summers ago I watched Before Sunrise Two days in a row. Still love it just as much today.

sgn43 05-12-2006 11:00 AM

I hardly ever go to the theater to watch movies, and have only seen 3 movies twice at the theater, but I did see 40 Year-Old Virgin the day it came out with friends and then the next day with my brother and his friend. I still don't think any movie is worth paying $20+ to see just twice, but at least 40YOV was hilarious both times I saw it.

Charlatan 05-12-2006 11:20 AM

When I first saw Raiders of the Lost Ark, back when it first came out, my mom and I loved the film so much that when it was over we stayed in our seats and watched it again.

This film was the first one that I can remember seeing and then thinking, "I want to work in film."

Years later in a high school film course we took Raiders apart shot by shot to see how they made it (we used that new fangled contraption the VCR to do it).

Cynthetiq 05-12-2006 11:40 AM

in the theaters:
Grease when I was like 12, movies were like $1.25 maybe a bit more.

on video:
The Little Mermaid
An American Tail

red0blivia 05-12-2006 12:08 PM

i do this, somewhat, often.

but i rarely watch tv and am, slightly, obsessed with film (have a huge collection thanks to my dvdburner) so...

off the top of my head, there was dual viewing of the following:
-city of lost children; amelie; a very long engagement; delicatessan (really into jeunet & caro films)
-red/white/blue; eraserhead; mulholland falls; shorts of jan svankmajer & the brothers quay; nine live of thomas katz; la jetee; begotten (partially because they are more surreal, obscure, and/or visually stimulating)
-a zed and two noughts; the cook the theif his wife & her lover; hable con ella; amores perros (non-linear storytelling always makes for enjoyable second viewings)

i watch many films more than once... though not, usually, immediatly or the following day:

-visitor Q; ichi the killer
-run lola run
-the tin drum
-death in gaza; orwell rolls in his grave; the corporation; the trials of henry kissinger (informative docs are always good to rewatch)
-flcl; the lain saga; neon genesis evangelion
-brazil
-santa sangre (holy freakiness!)
-2001:space odyssey
-dr.strangelove
-ma vie en rose
