I love watching movies and I repeat watching them. I am not sure if other people also do this. Can you share your own reason why you watch the movies again? My reason is when the movie is really interesting and i love the casts. here are some of my fave movies; saving private ryan XXX (Vin Diesel) harry potter series twilight home alone tell me, how about yours!

The most number of times I watched the same movie is I think 7 times. Once a day for the whole week. And this movies is Balto I was really hooked with this animated movie when I was a child. Nowadays I don't usually watch again the same movie unless of course I really loved it. But I usually just watch it again once. Some movies I watched twice are: 1. The Proposal 2. Titanic 3. The Count of Monte Cristo 4. Armageddon 5. Transformers I & II

I watched "titanic" a lot of times too. First because of HBO and the story is really lovable.

Nice picks sir. The proposal is nice and funny. But of all The Count of Monte Cristo is such a good movie. I also watched Armageddon like twice, because the russian astronaut is so cool.. Specially his line on board the space shuttle when everything failed to start.

As far as I am concerned, I usually have the same feeling with you that I may watch a movie for twice , three times ,even more times. In my mind, I just like the rush hour so much,which I think is a very exciting movie that I have ever watched. The series of Rush Hour really move me so much.So I choose to watch them several times.

I forgot to add the movies of Jacky Chan. I love him and his movies. Rush Hour series are really fantastic. I hope Jacky Chan will do more movies.

Hi Cindysoriano. I watch movies over and over too. I'm sort of like Millertime. I've become bored with my DVD collection and although tempted, I don't want to watch 10,000 BC and Apocalypto over and over, so I've gone to my VHS collection. I don't have a cable tv account and I used to watch movies and other events on Justin.tv But my computer lags and I can't enjoy that site too much. So I'm stuck with my DVD's and VHS tapes. Here are the movies I see at least twice a year. DVD's 1. American Graffiti 2. Apocalypto 3. The Riddick Trilogy 4. 10,000 BC 5. The Pirates of the Carribean Trilogy VHS 1. Raiders of the Lost Arc 2. The Ten Commandments 3. Aliens I and II 4. Star Wars I, 2, and 3 5. Sparctacus 6. Rodan 7. La Bamba 8. The Fog I see the other myLot members talking about Titanic. I would like to get the DVD, if there is one, called A Night to Remember. It's a great movie about the Titanic also.

The first ever movie I watched repeatedly is "Titanic". It was shown when I was in college. My friends ask me to watch with them that is why I watched it 3 times. I also love the movie and can't get over the sink ship. I love the story.

Sometimes a movie just pops into my mind and I just watch it, usually i just scan through it but there are movies that I really watch. And yes, I also watch some movies again if they are interesting, especially action...But I think the movie that can be watched over and over again are those in the comedy and romance genre..maybe even horror...

If I agree, there are movies that are so good that they give you desire of several times seeing her. It is very common to see them in the cinema, then in dvd, for the computer and finally for tv. Or simply you repeat some of the renowned means previously. Here estan some of the movies that I saw mas of once: The master of the rings the whole strip The fall of the black alcón Rescuing the soldier Brahian Transformers 1 and 2 Deja Vu Jurassic Park

I do it all the time. I have a good sized DVD collection and if there is nothing on TV that I want to watch, I'll look through it and pull out a movie that I haven't seen in a while and watch it. Some movies are so entertaining that they are enjoyable to watch even though you know the outcome. The acting, special effects and action are good enough to watch more than once, even many times. One example is all of the Star Wars movies or even the Star Trek movies if you're a fan of those. Some of my other favorite movies are The Fugitive, Hunt For Red October, Saving Private Ryan, The Abyss, Apollo 13, The Green Mile, The Shawshank Redemption, Contact, Field of Dreams, The Patriot and Mr. Holland's Opus and I have enjoyed them all more than once.

I do watch movies many times but not in the cinema hall. I have not seen a single movie twice in the theatre. I can watch same movie again and again in TV or dvd but not in theatre. I find it worth to spend money for a new movie instead of watching same thing again.

I also love watching movies again and again especially if I really like it (story and the cast). Sometimes, I watch a movie again because I miss that movie.

I don't like watching movies more than once. When my grandkids come they like to watch a movie over and over again. It about drives me crazy!!

I think it happened with Titanic last time with a lot of people.. And Freddie Krueger series, I can't imagine anyone watching that loads of times.. or the Jason Goes to Hell.. ha.. I'm thinking I can watch Lord of the Rings more than once. Lately, the local channel here has been featuring the Trilogy lots of times.. so yeah.. got those dosages for those whom have not yet watched the movie, that's a real bonus.

I also love watching movies many times when I am with friends because sometimes, i am even the one to narate them what had happened in the movie. They get irritated of me. I love watching movies which I consider my favorites. Of course, I love to keep track on the new movies as well and if in case I have not really understood the plot, I watch it twice in order to appreciate more the story. Thank you for posting this. Have a great weekend.

I can watch movies over and over and over as well. my husband is not the same. he dosen't even like watching the same one twice. my four year old will watch a movie about 30 times and then he usually finds a new one to watch.

I watch all my dvds over again. I usually put one on every night to fall asleep to and I'll often have the same one on for a few nights in a row. For example, the movie I had on last night was Robert DeNiro's "Casino" and I think I will probably watch that one again tonight. I think the thing with watching movies repeatedly is that I'll always notice something I didn't see the last time. I think I could say that I watch more movies repeatedly than I watch ones I haven't seen before, and a lot of the time I'd prefer to watch one I've already seen that watch something new. I feel this can be the same for books too.

Sometimes i do that, but maybe only twice (sometimes third)... because at first watch i only catch the general idea of the movie, at the second watch; i tried to understand the whole plot of the stories, and at the third watch (sometimes when the movie it's so exciting), i tend to look for the details, like place, house and clothes in the movie ^^
