What do you think is your most watched film?

The Phantom Menace.

However, leaving out my cutlist project, I'd also say Ghostbusters.

No doubt "Starship Troopers."

I watched that movie probably 4-5 times a week for most of the four years I was in college.

the OOT.    I must have watched it 10,000 times when I was a kid.   If you are talking about the last 5-10 years,  I'd say The Godfather.

The OOT is so much more.

Raiders of the Lost Ark.  Man, I love that movie!

At home it would have to be the ITV premier of Star Wars (ANH so pre SE but after the title change).

I taped it off the television and skipped the adverts but kept the ad break cards (I still expect to see them at key points in the movie when I watch it).

At one point I was watching the thing about three times a day for many months.

If you add that to the official VHS viewings, the DVD viewings (both GOUT and SE and fan edits) and the half dozen cinema viewings I must have seen the film in some form well over a thousand times by now (though I try to limit it to about once a year these days).

In the cinema it is Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom which I watched about 17 times (to the point where the ticket lady at the ABC Cinema was giving me funny looks when I would see it a couple of times a day in one week).

Watching a film a lot of times isn't always a barometer of appreciation though.

The OOT is not a film.

well, of the three films, I suppose I watched Star Wars the most.

Probably Blade Runner.  I've seen it countless times, and I've seen all five versions at least once.  (I think the only one I've actually seen only once is the US theatrical cut, the one with the censored violence.)

The Usual Suspects is my other go-to.  I make it a point to watch it at least twice a year.  It's the film that got me to want to be an editor.

Without a doubt its Star Wars. I didnt have a VHS the first few times ITV showed it but i always watched it every time it came on, usually around Christmas. It was also the first VHS tape i ever owned back in 1988.

To clarify, *Star Wars* used to be my #1 (before that, it was *Jedi* when I was a kid), but since the 2004 DVDs came out, I've watched it less and less every year.

Star Wars is the film I have watched the most.  I put it on quite often when I am working on my laptop, so that I can glance at it when I am bored.  I don't usually watch the whole film through: I just watch bits.  I find it very strange that I don't really tire of the film, but I don't.  I watch ESB often too, especially Adywan's big MKV of the 97 SE.

Empire Strikes Back is probably the most, but I have a feeling I watched Home Alone more than any movie.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

I can remember the ITV premier of Star Wars featuring the beautiful mono mix. I didn't have a video recorder at the time so i taped the audio from the output on the TV to my Hi-Fi and must have listened to that tape hundreds of times

I did the exact same thing...

And again, I did the exact same thing...Even watching Indy a shit load of times at the cinema...... The one add break I still remember to this day is "Luke..Luke..Luke...Have you seen Luke this morning?"

Actually, I think it was Jedi that I saw around 17 times in 3 weeks at our local cinema...Good times!!!

Star Wars - Too young - Can't remember but it was around 6 or 7 times

Empire - Too young - Again, Can't remember but it was around 6 or 7 times

SW & ESP Double bill - God knows...But seeing SW on the screen in years was great.

Jedi - 17 Times

E.T - 11 Times

Temple of Doom - Around 8 or 9 times

 

Those are the films I saw most

Lucky for me my cinema was only 2 mins from where we lived and only cost 50p to get in, so yes, I spent a lot of time there....

James Bond-I've watched Dr. No through LTK so many times that I've lost count. The Brosnan films slightly less.

If I counted the number of times it would be Live and Let Die.

This is tough. Of non-embarrassing movies, Empire Strikes Back. Of embarrassing movies, probably Peter Pan (the musical) as performed by Mary Martin.
