Movies You’ve Watched at Least 7 Times

There's a viral deal going around TwiXter that asks, "using a GIF, show a movie you've seen at least seven times." I, of course, chose the greatest film in cinematic history, but it made me wonder what other films I've seen that many times. I don't have an exact view count on any of these, but know I watched them over and over and over.

Here's what I came up with, in rough order of when they came out:

  • Monty Python and the Holy Grail
  • Empire Strikes Back
  • Flash Gordon
  • Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid
  • Fast Times at Ridgemont High
  • The Thing
  • Trading Places
  • Blade Runner
  • Spinal Tap
  • Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension
  • Real Genius
  • Back to the Future
  • After Hours
  • Aliens
  • Big Trouble in Little China
  • Raising Arizona
  • Beetlejuice
  • Tombstone
  • Wings of Desire
  • Pulp Fiction
  • O Brother, Where Art Thou?
  • Office Space
  • A Bug's Life
  • The Incredibles

Not a lot of Great Cinema here. Mostly comedies, midnight movies, films rerun on cable, and the last two I rewatched with my kids.

How about you?
