Queue the goosebumps, we’re in for a hell of a ride.

That one is probably up there for me when it comes to total watch time (and we combine all 3 movies).

I’ve seen all 3 in the theatric release initially and after that I’ve watched through the extended editions 2 times. That’s like 30h+ at least.

Same, except I snatched up both the theater and extended the minute they came out and have watched through them all numerous times. As well as now watched a lot of reaction videos for them, which I guess counts too. It’s fun to reexperience the first time through someone else’s eyes.

I rewatch The Hobbit trilogy and LOTR (both extended) every year with my wife. I would prefer just watching a fan cut of the hobbit as I don’t think those are very good, but my wife likes them and a happy wife is a happy life.

So I think I have seen LOTR at least 8 or 9 times and hobbit maybe 4 times.

That still doesn’t come close to a Swanlake cartoon movie that I obsessively watched 4 times a day when I was around 5 or 6. My parents insist I must have watched it well over 100 times.

The Princess Bride. It’s such a fun adventure that still holds up really well today.

Ghostbusters is probably the single movie I can quote from one end to the other.

That and maybe Robocop.

Another entry for me would be “Robin Hood (1973)”. I haven’t rewatched it in a long time, but as kids we (my brother and me) wanted to watch that movie over and over again. I’ve seen it more than ten times at least.

Yup. Insane movie.

Crazy how dog shit all the movies after the first are, though.
