Do you ever go back to the cinema to see the same picture twice ? Ever once in a whille I do this but I have been known to go 3-5 years without going to the cinema. I really enjoyed the new batman film so I was thinking about going back to see it. $10 a viewing

Saw Iron Man three times (once with friends, once with girl, another with friends), Batman twice (both times with friends), Pineapple Express twice (Once with my brother, the next week with girl and friend), Horton Hears A Who twice (once with girl, other time with friend), and Wall-e twice (Once with older brother, next day with younger ones).

I think I might have seen Titanic twice, but don't remember very clearly since it's a long time ago. I've seen some Broadway plays more than once though.

Saw Tropic Thunder twice, once with the guys which was a riot, and once with the girl, which was less interesting the second time.

I used to work at the local cinema every day, so saw most films released in those years many many times. It wasn't always a pleasant thing, but it was great fun for the good films

Nope, I wait until the movie comes out on DVD and then rent it. Going to the movies these days are a pain in the assets

Only if it's a really good movie, and then only if i have the cash lying around and the incentive to spoil intense moments for everyone else...

The most I've gone to is three times for The Dark Knight.

Three times to see this movie at the then-best theater in my town, back in 1983.

It's EXTREMELY rare. I saw Pulp Fiction perhaps 5-7 times in the theatre, and I've seen The Dark Knight four times (twice on my own, twice I was dragged by friends who hadn't seen it yet). At $5 a showing with all the free air conditioning I can handle, it's not a bad way to spend a nice hot summer afternoon in New Orleans.

I went and saw The Dark Knight twice. First time I went with a coworker, second time I went with a buddy. I would never go to a movie by myself, thats just weird.

I remember seeing the George Harrison Concert for Bangladesh movie twice when it was new. But the prize will go to... a kitty cat by the name of Simba.
When the Lion King came out, my kids were the right age. We saw it in the theater 3 times, then I bought the videotape and we watched it, oh I don't know, maybe 100 more times. I probably still know all the songs by heart.
Hakuna matata, y'all.

Went back to see the Sixth Sense to catch all the clues, but that's about it.

Recent movies not so much, but if an older movie I love is playing on a screen I'll go. Screened movies beat DVDs for me any day.

Saw Pineapple Express twice, went once with a bunch of friends and then another time with my brother.

I've done it a couple times, but its pretty rare for me to do and is going down as ticket prices go up.
