Which movie have you seen more times than any other?

[The Burgomaster]

My #1 is THE GODFATHER.

I have seen it at the drive-in, on network television, and on cable. I have rented it on video. I used to own it on CED disc (remember those? they were like 33 1/3 RPM record albums that you played on a special machine connected to your television . . . they didn't last very long). I own it on VHS and I also own it on DVD. Plus, I worked in a video rental store for 3 years during the 1980s and we used to watch it about 3 or 4 times a year while we were working. Conservatively, I'd say I have seen this movie between 50 and 75 times. I've seen Part II about 20 - 25 times. I have even suffered through Part III about 6 times.

I would have to give honorary mentions to WAR OF THE WORLDS, JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH, THE WIZARD OF OZ, THE BIRDS, A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, PLANET OF THE APES, DAWN OF THE DEAD, THE WILD BUNCH, BONNIE & CLYDE, THE FRENCH CONNECTION, TAXI DRIVER, THE GETAWAY and GOODFELLAS. I've seen these films at least 12 - 20 times each.

What is at the top of everyone else's list?

I saw "Star Wars" 29 times in the theater.

All the runner ups are Godzilla movies, or perhaps the Transformers movie.  The #1 though, is probably Godzilla 1985.  It was the first G-flick I saw as a kid, and I'd bet I've seen it at least 40 - 50 times.  I can speak all the dialogue along with the dubbing actors.

Jaws - Well in excess of 50 times, probably closer to 75 or 80.  Perhaps even 100.  The runner up is John Carpenter's The Thing[/b], which is somewhere between the 40 to 60 times range.

GHOSTBUSTERS. Anybody who was a kid when or after this movie was released that can't watch this movie over and over again had a bad childhood, methinks.

i have seen the original and empire about that many times and in 2 separate countries.  i've seen Jedi in 3 different countries.

Probably the original Star Wars trilogy, This Is Spinal Tap, Monty Python & the Holy Grail, Plan 9, or the MST3K'd version of Pod People.

The Wall, 54 times.  All of them since this October too.  That's kinda sad in hindsight.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Well, I've been in the theater while it was playing, that's the same as watching it right?

Gunga Din---Been my favorite movie since I was 12. I own it on VHS, I'm gonna find it on DVD, and I watch it every time I see it on the TV schedule. In my opinion, the best friggin' flick ever made.

Jaws, I used to watch that movie everyday when I got home from school for 2 years. I just couldn't get enough of it. Return of the Living Dead, Repo Man, Tremors, and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas are others that I seen at least 20 times, Return of the Living Dead, I know that I've seen that at least 45 times. My Mom has seen U.S. Marshals at least 50 times. She's always watching that movie whether its on tv or on tape she's always watching it.

[Squishy]

"The Secret of NIMH." You don't wanna know how many times. Okay, I don't want YOU to know.

[Skaboi]

Fight Club would have to be mine.  A pure masterpiece.  I'd say I've seen it atleast 50 times.  I'm suprised the DVD isn't ashes yet.

Well, I suppose it's The Seventh Seal, though Fires on the Plain comes in second.  I've noticed over the years that people tend to avoid these pictures because of the "serious art-film" connotations associated with them & they're afraid they'll be bored.   I'd say please give them a chance, you may be surprised . . .
