Someone needs to check the rule book for Jesse.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I think I saw Ferris Bueller five or six times the week it came out. We were on half days at school that week for exams.

Branagh's Henry V is something I love to pop into the DVD player when I start cleaning the apartment. I can just recite along with some of those speeches while dusting/doing dishes!

Rosencrantz & Guildenstern
Oh yeah! That!
Heh. I was just thinking I needed to add that to the shelf of comfort movies.
Also, Velvet Goldmine.
That's already on the shelf of comfort movies.

The movie I've most watched in the theater is probably Grease, which I saw 5 times when it first came out (between friends and babysitting and the fact that we only had one local theater). Although Willy Wonka played there every year for awhile so that might be a close second.
Movies I've watched most on TV/DVD:
Caddyshack, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, The Thin Man, Heathers, High Society, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Sound of Music, Wizard of Oz.
Growing up before VCRs, I really racked up viewings of things that showed ritually on TV every year.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
A discussion on another board reminded me of "The Music Man." I've watched that a lot. Sound of Music, Wizard of Oz, Mary Poppins -- movies my grandmother had on tape. And "Naughty Marietta."

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think I have to retroactively include the Sound of Music and The Wizard of Oz to my list, as we watched them every year on the teevee.Although for a long time I had to go to bed before they were over. I went to bed when Dorothy arrived at the Emerald City, and when the Von Trapp children sang "SoLong, Farewell" and went to bed! I am not sure why this going to bed thing was so important!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
The movie I've most watched in the theatre has to be Rocky Horror but Harold and Maude should have been in my original video top 5 and, now that I think about it, also Excalibur and (unfortunately) Bachelor Party. And possibly Clockwork Orange and Caligula.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
For movie most watched in the theater, I'd have to say it was the original Star Wars or possibly Grease.
