Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.
Betsy, are yyou ready for another viewing yet? Maidengurl and I are thinking about heading to Union City on Sunday for a matinee.
We have Dar Williams tickets, so thanks but no. I want to see Mirrormask and Wallace and Gromit more than I want to see Serenity again -- twice will do me until the DVD comes out.
Three times, which ties the record for number of live viewings of a currently-released movie for me. (I'm not counting stuff like Singin' in the Rain which should be seen as many times in a theatre as you are capable of, IMHO.)
I've only seen it the once, due to being horribly poor, though I would like to see it again.
I've seen it three times, counting the advanced screenings. May see it again this weekend when I'm visiting my folks and I'm supposed to see it with a friend of mine who borrowed my DVDs at some point when both our schedules are free.

Same as Theodosia. ETA: Oh, no, actually, I didn't read carefully. It's not a tie for me. It's the most times I've seen a currently-released movie.
The LotR movies took me up to four during current release. I have no concrete plans to see Serenity again, although I wouldn't mind escorting other friends.
My in-theatre (though not current release) record is fifteen or twenty. When The Princess Bride meets rep theatres and university screens (I only saw it twice in first run), it's a beautiful thing.
I saw the original Star Wars five times in the theater when it first came out. That's been my record all these years.
Huh. I've beat that with Serenity.
There are a whole bunch of movies I've seen three or four times in the theater.
I saw Amélie six times in theatrical release because I was crazy about it, and Pulp Fiction six times because I was the guy several different friends were determined to see it with. I think that's my record, although I've watched Ghostbusters on cable and broadcast TV every time I've run across it (stopped counting with viewing #24).
I tried watching The Princess Bride on TV, but they trimmed the lightning sand scene, so I stopped. My sister called and complained about the same snip, and turns out she stopped watching too.
The few movies I've seen more than twice in the theater were usually due to friends who wanted to see it with me. (Spiderman and Pirates of the Caribbean) If someone really wanted to Serenity with me again I wouldn't have any problem with it, but there are just so many other movies out there right now that I want to see for the first time that I doubt I'll get to Serenity again before it leaves the theaters.
