How Many Times Have You Seen The Movie?

[Elrian]

So far I have seen it 4 times, it gets better with every viewing, and I've found that things that I didn't notice in previous viewings. Apart from a few scenes that were overdone, it was an awesome movie, and I plan to see it many more times.

[QueenMag]

I've seen it three times. I know I'll see it again in a week or so, and again after The Two Towers trailer starts being shown with it. Then that still leaves 11 more months till TTT comes out, so I'm sure I'll see it at least once or twice more before the DVD is released. It just begs to be seen on the big screen; my television is only 27 inches.

[Imperica]

I've seen it twice. Once with my friend and the other time with my Dad. The first time we were too close up to the screen so I decided to see it a second time in a good seat. I think I might take my girlfriend to see it also.

[Airetelluma]

I've seen it four times; number five on Sunday!

Four times in the theatre with plans to see it many more??? *does the math in her head* That's a lot of money! Do you think you can contribute to my tuition fund since you have so much extra? <P>-réd

[Serevian The Ranger]

so far none but i am going to watch it this weekend

[Lush]

I'm going for a third time tonight...I really don't have a life over the holidays, do I? I should be relaxing at home with the book and a glass of rum; it's too chilly outside! Instead, I will be going out tonight. I guess it's a combination of Legolas and the cinematography that does it for me.

I love the whole experience of going to and sitting in the cinema auditorium, being with the audience, being completely absorbed ....<P>Sorry; I am a working student myself; I have the money by skimping on other things for a while.

[Galahira-may]

i have seen it twice already (my mom and dad tease me and call me teh Lord of teh rings queen). I plan to see it more though. It holds my attention for the whole time....and a movie that does that has gotta be good.

[Evil Anya]

I've seen it twice, I will probably go atleast once more before it is out of the theatres but right now i don't have the funds.

[The Barrow-Wight]

I've seen it twice, once in English, my native language, and once in German, my second and very half-forgotten language. Fortunately, because I am so familiar with the books and had seen it in English first, I understood the movie in German perfectly.

[Isildur]

I saw the movie twice and it was really cool both times. I think the first time was better, cause the second time seemed to take a really long time and it was very late. I think it was one of my favorite movies of all. I will probably wait for the video and buy it. Yes, I still use VHS! <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

[Elanor]

So far just the once. But I will be going again in a couple of days, taking a friend who does not know the story at all. Hopefully I'll make a new convert

[Tarlondeion Of Gondolin]

I've seen it twice and I'm going again next week. Its a great film.

[shieldmaiden]

I havent seen it yet, but i plan to see it at least three times on the big screen. I want to take all my friends to see it and I hope that there will be some converting.<p>[ December 29, 2001: Message edited by: shieldmaiden ]

[Pippin]

I converted two already...I seen it four times so far...and if I can find enough cash down the back of my sofa, I might go again...

[the Lockbearer]

Only twice so far. My 10 yr old son is bugging me about seeing it again this holiday weekend and only this flu bug is keeping me from it.<P>Certainly enjoyed the film much better the second time and look forward to the third time to being that much more enjoyable.<P>Can't wait until it is released on DVD.

[Lush]

Oh yes. Having FotR on DVD means I can pause it at all the right moments...

[Serevian The Ranger]

one time it was pretty good i think it lived up to my expectations

[Zippo]

one.....only one....

If I had to spend money, I might have only been able to go once

[Snowflake]

I've seen it twice, soon to be three, times. It's hard to go to the movies a lot when you can't drive and only get $10 a week.......

[Marileangorifurnimaluim]

Three times so far, with plans to go again, later, before the second movie comes out. Much better the second time, just love looking around Bilbo's home (looks like my cozy place - stuff everywhere - I like it). <P>I can't wait to put my feet up and watch all three in a row.

[Maltagaerion]

Just twice so far, took my mom the second time. I think now she realises why I've loved these books all these years

[Airetelluma]

I've converted four people; they all got LotR for Christmas/already had it and all went running home to read. ^_^

[Legolas]

I've been four times, only getting in twice. Only one of the eight or so cinemas in town is showing it, and it's also the most popular cinema in town...but they only show it three times after 4:00. 'Tis okay though, I'm going tomorrow to see it again.

[Lance]

4 times for myself. Will hopefully see it many times before it leaves the theater.

[Sindalómiel]

I've seen it twice, and will be seeing it again as soon as I get some money.

[lothlorien]

Hello from Spain!!!<BR>I´ve seen it twice and I cried both.I´ve only read "The Hobbit" and now I´m reading "The Silmarilion", but I felt completely in love with the movie and the characters on it. Surely I´ll see it again and again until it´ll be releaed on DVD.

[Gilthalion]

I'll have to buy a DVD player one day just to get the Director's Cut (another 45 minutes or so, according to rumor).<P>I've seen it thrice in the cinema, once by myself (opening day matinee), once with the Mrs (opening night), and once with a friend.<P>The Mrs tells me I must take her again and thus ENDURE it for a fourth time.<P>Somehow, I don't think I'll mind!

[Baillie From Bree]

Nine!

[Lush]

Dear, I have multiplied 195 minutes (the approximate length of the movie) by 9, and I got this number: 1755. I then divided that by 60 and got 29.25 (hours). That's more than a day!<BR>...I myself may go see it a fourth time, if the withdrawal is too terrible.

[Maeglin]

I have seen it two times so far (once alone and once with my friends) and im seeing it again this week with my brother and my dad. When is that TTT trailer? I sure dont want to miss that.

[Elrian]

New Line hasn't made an announcement yet as to when they will switch the current film with the one including the trailer. If they expect the movie to run until March they may do it next month sometime, or when it starts to fall in the box office take.

[Baillie From Bree]

Think of it this way. When you're eleventy-one years old, what will you wish you had done more of?<P>View obsessively, my children.

[zifnab]

I have seen the movie only once, but would like to see it again, this time bring my wife. But if everybody watches the movie 3+ times as it seems the majority have(at least in here), then this movie will be rackin' in the big bucks. <P>I wonder what they'll do with all the left over money(If there is such a thing as that in Hollywood).

[Lush]

Well, they can go by themsevles at least to ice-cream cones with the "left-over money", because today I saw the movie for the fourth time. For my own weird reasons, of course.

[QueenMag]

I read in IMDb, that they would start running the TTT trailers with FotR after the Oscar nominations are announced.

[Gayahithwen]

I've only seen it once so far, but I plan seeing it again sometime soon.. this time I'll read through a "101 things you saw, think you saw or missed in the film"list that I found somewhere before and then watch out for everything and then laugh loudly when I see them.. hhmm.. I will not buy anything to drink this time, though.. three hours of pain last time.. ^_^ oh well, I survived..

[amyrlis]

Only once so far! Would like to catch it at least once more on the big screen though. Perhaps I'll wait till after the Oscars and see if QueenMag heard correctly - that would be great! It will have to come out on DVD before I get to see it as many times as I've read the book though!

[cute_chick2157]

I've seen FotR 3 times now, once on opening day, once with another obsessed friend, and once with my Dad, brother and a friend. I'm planning to go again when the TTT trailers come out. <P>There are only a few things I have a problem with though ... 1. Tom got cut out I was looking forward to seeing Tom. And 2 in the final shot of Frodo standing on the shores of the Anduin he is crying and remembering what Gandalf said to him earlier in the movie, in one shot the tear on his left cheek is farther down his face than the tear on his right cheek, then in the next shot it is opposite. Its not that this bothers me, it's just something that I noticed the first time I saw it.<P>Did anyone see the trolls (from The Hobbit, turned to stone) in the background of one of the scenes?

[dernhelm]

I've seen the movie 3 times so far!

[Telgaladiel]

I've seen it three times, and have made plans for after break to go see it at school with three different friends and my roomate!<P>Oh wait, am I supposed to buy my schoolbooks with my movie money? ah...

[Enkanowen]

Now I've seen it 4 times and going for the 5th probably this weekend! It just doesnt get boring and I love the soundtrack

[Baillie From Bree]

Ten.<P>Someone on the TolkienMovies board says 27, I think it was.

[Erulasto]

The Battle of Five Armies should look great.

[northernlight]

i've seen it 3 times...and i pick up on something new every time! i just saw it a few hours ago...wait, i should say last night now!...and it was just as good as the first time i'm so giddy after seeing it again that i'm still wide awake at 7am even after getting home at 11:30...all my friends think i'm crazy for seeing a movie in the theatre more than once or twice...even my friends who have read the book and have seen the movie w/me...i dunno though, i'd go to the theatre and see it right now if i could!<P>'scuse the rambling...maybe i should say that my eyes are wide open but my brain is nodding off...*yawns*

[zifnab]

Well I just saw it for the second time, and I beg of you people, to <B>NOT</B> bring an infant to see the movie!<P>

[Sindalómiel]

"Why are the hobbits so little?" "OOOOHHHH!!!! Look! Maybe they're scared of water!" "What's that big black firey thing?" GGGGRRRRR! I was about ready to tell the kid's parents to gag him or something, he really made it hard to watch the movie. <P>Ok, that's my little rant over and done with. Just felt I had to vent.

[Snowflake]

I just went to see it for the third time, and I had 5 5 year olds sitting behind me!

[northernlight]

the 1st time i saw it there were 2 or 3 8 year olds behind my mom and i and during the very last scene one of the girls leans over to her friend and says 'sam looks like your dad!' it was so cute <P>and the last time i saw it there was a kid down the row who kept pulling his straw through the top of his coke the whole time...it made that weird squeaking sound...ugh!! lol

[Elanor]

Lol! <BR>When I saw it a week or two ago the little kid in front of me was so scared during the Weathertop scene that he spat his coke all over his mother and started to wimper...

[Maltagaerion]

Some parents just have no sense....like those parents who brought their little screaming kid when we went and saw Saving Private Ryan

[Maltagaerion]

..oh and BTW I've seen it 3 times now

[Sindalómiel]

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by Maltagaerion:<BR><STRONG>Some parents just have no sense....like those parents who brought their little screaming kid when we went and saw Saving Private Ryan </STRONG><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I went to see Series 7 last week at the Moonlight Cinema (for those who haven't heard of it, it's very violent. Basically it's about a reality TV show where you have to kill the other contestants, not just vote them off.) And these stupid parents took a baby and a 4 year old to see it. Hello? Things have R ratings for a REASON people.

[Durkriswen]

Twice, going for three.
