Movies: Have you ever paid to see a movie more than once?

[Carolinas Identity*]

Of all things, How the Grinch Stole Christmas in 2000.

One was with family, the other was a date. Only paid for the date one though, but I did pay for popcorn for the family outing so I guess that counts?

Haven't seen more than maybe 10 minutes of it since.

Is that the one with Jim Carey and Taylor Momsen?

 

[tacogeoff]

Star Wars TFA. went once with the kids, then once with the GF and lastly with a friend who had no one to go with lol.

 

[George Binks]

I did for all the Harry Potter movies

 

[HisIceness]

Is that the one with Jim Carey and Taylor Momsen?

Yes. Also has Jeff Tambor.

 

[Buckets and Gloves]

Inception, Dark Knight and Kill Bill Vol 1

 

[Guardian17]

Iron Man, Avengers & Captain America : Civil War.

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

Yes. Also has Jeff Tambor.

[Flash20]

I saw Phantom Menace 5 times in the theatre.

Different groups of people kept inviting me, so don't judge me.

I also saw Force Awakens twice with different groups of folks.

 

[Paris in Flames]

Yes. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (American version). With with a few friends and then a girl I was interested in asked me to go. Be dumb to say no.

...though in hindsight not a great date movie.

Seeing the Phantom Menace five times is some next level masochism.

 

[Hockey Outsider]

The only two that I can remember are Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" (three times that I can recall, perhaps more) and "No Country For Old Men".

 

[Oscar Acosta]

Once:

Batman v Superman

Took my kid first night it was open, thought it was entirely badass. Went again 3 days later.

Don't judge me.. (I was young and stupid)

I saw Howard the Duck 3 times in theaters.




I also saw Phantom Menace twice.



That was it.

 

[CokenoPepsi]

Deadpool, Avengers, All three original Spider-Mans, two towers, return of the king.

Off top of head

 

[Voight]

yes--for a very goofy reason

I am sure I am the only one who EVER did this

had a date(in high school nearly 30 years ago for a time frame) and she was a little high maintenance and finicky `--so I caught the after noon showing of a movie we were seeing that night as a precaution so that there was nothing to side track the date

Thats a pretty good idea mate

As for the OP -- Revenge of the Sith, Wolf of Wall Street, Dark Knight Rises, Black Mass, Fast 7 off the top of my head

Don't judge me.. (I was young and stupid)

I saw Howard the Duck 3 times in theaters.

Having a crush on Lea Thompson is nothing to be ashamed of.

Seriously, I watched it for the first time just months ago. I somehow avoided it for 30 years because of how awful I'd always heard it to be. I was surprised that it's actually not that bad. I found it rather funny and cute. I think that there were just high expectations when it was released, mostly because it was from George Lucas and Lucasfilm, and those weren't met. If you watch it now with low expectations and are prepared for 80s cheese, it can be somewhat enjoyable, at least if you grew up in the 80s.

 

[hoglund]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. Saw it a second time at the cheap theatre.

The original Star Wars 1977, I saw it 5 times, but it was only 1.25 then.

I won't judge you for Howard the Duck, but what about Phantom Menace?

 

[TP]

What can I say? Other than, at least it wasn't Attack of the Clones.

 

[Warden of the North]

Many. Too many to list for twice.

I saw The Force Awakens and all of The Lord of the Rings movies thrice.

There is probably a couple more I saw three times im forgetting

 

[darko]

2nd Dark Knight, 1st and 2nd Lord of the Rings, 1st and 3rd Hobbit.

 

[Savi]

The only movie I remember paying for twice is Birdman which I saw in my hometown in Belgium and then a couple of weeks later with some friends in Holland.

Dutch treat?

I'm surprised not more of us have seen movies multiple times for strategic romantic reasons. I remember seeing Claude Lelouch's A Man and a Woman and absolutely loving it on its own stylish merits but also thinking "hey, perfect date movie or what." Over the years, I have revisited it with a lot of different women (granted, one of them was my mom who I knew would love it), present partner included, and it has always been a great way to start an evening.
