    Way too many for me to even begin to list. but I have the feeling Smokey and the Bandit - the first one - would be near the top of the list along with all the Dirty Harry movies.

    I remember a friend of mine in college went to see Saturday Night Fever many, many times. This was back in the late 70s before when it first came out and movies were cheap to go see.

    Star Wars, Empire, and Jedi works for me. I'll just make the rest of it up in my head. The version in my head is not nearly as stupid, doesn't have too much obvious CGI, and has no Jar-Jar Binks or the kid that can't act.

    Yep, I'm positive I've seen most of those at least 30 or 40 times.

    I forgot to add Close Encounters of the Third Kind, which was a movie I watched many, many times in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Great film for that era, though my opinion is that it doesn't hold up well over time.

  10. Interestingly, "Jaws" holds up better and I watched it again recently and was amazed at how good Spielberg was at such a young age. Same with "The Sugarland Express"---his filmmaking was less calculated and more inspired. Not to suggest he hasn't made other great movies but the lack of self awareness can be a good thing.

    LS&TSB is such a classic.
    Brillant, and so funny.

    In ancient days before VHS we had quite a few second run movie theaters. Either they had really cheap admission or they charged regular prices but showed double features. I can say I watched Caddy Shack more than 15 times.
