Default How Often Do You Watch The Movies In Your Movie Library?

I'll start.
Never

There is so much free content on the net and on Verizon, that I don't even need to have a movie library.

Never. I don't have a ton, but what I have, I have seen several times. The ones I have watched the most are Pulp Fiction and Saturday Night Fever.

I have a ton too. My brother is downloading more all the time and gives it to me. I haven't even watched 10% of it.

I've watched them all at lest once.

Less than 10% have ever had a second viewing however.

Like many, I watch a movie and very rarely want to see it again.
If I do, I'll just wait to see it on TV.
I think that I've rented a movie 4 times in my life, mostly due to the other half wanting to see it.
The Green Mile, Fried Green Tomatoes, or The Princess Bride would be buying candidates but they're all over free or paid media, so why buy them ?

Most of what I own is simply because I forgot to return it, so they charged me and I kept them. I think every one of them has a Blockbuster cover.

Never.

Part of it is I just don't have the patience or attention span to sit through a movie much anymore. I have a very short list of favorites that I would watch anyways.

They restored our local small town theatre from the 1930's. It's super nice, etc...I have been to it a couple of times when they were playing something I wanted to see. It was an entirely different and enjoyable experience vs sitting at home on the couch and watching the TV.

All the time.
The negative3 part about living in the country where I am is the internet is shit.
Getting sick a few years ago plus the lack of good internet is what made me start my library.
I've probably watched half of them at least twice and at least a hundred of them multiple times.
There are some movies mostly comedies I've watched dozens of times like Secret of my Success, Greedy, Doc Hollywood.

When we're home, I'd say we average 3 nights/week.

Never watch tv, never really did except for cartoons as kids, but we do like to hide out in the theater after we put the kids to bed.

Last one I watched was Le Mans on Blu-ray. Going through this crap now trying to figure out what to do with them. Have the planet earth bluray narrated by David attenboro, Band of brothers, lotr, Tarantino, Bruce Lee, some other crap. I already know how they end. The concert vids I can watch over and over but don’t. SRV, Zep, The Who, Carlos, rush, the wall and such. Those stay.
