Have you ever watched the same movie twice in a day?

Also watched The Passion twice in a day. Once watching the actual movie, then again with the commentary on.

I can't wait to see it

I saw Attack of the Clones 4 times opening day, including the midnight showing.

I was wee a bit obsessive about Star Wars at that time in my life.

I used to think Disturbia was the best movie ever and I watched it 3 times in a row.

I think we have a winner.

The Simpsons Movie the first time I just watched the movie, and the second time I watched it with commentary on.

Ahem...The Passion of the Christ. Sorry. Didn't even know there was more than one Passion.

I wish. When I go to College in August I will be able to though, the movie theatre is 15-20 minutes away by bus.

I saw The Dark Knight twice in the same day. I saw it a second time after being so underwhelmed the first I wanted to see if I missed something. Nope, still underwhelming after the fantastic Batman Begins. I also saw all three Star Wars prequels at midnight showings and then later in the afternoon for the same reasons and got the same results.

I did the same thing for Matrix Reloaded

Never double dipped on a disappointment ... I feel like that needs its own category . Ha.

Not quite. I saw Phantom Menace 4 times opening day, and that was after already seeing it on both the Saturday and Sunday before at special advance screenings.

Skyfall twice in cinemas, and would happily have gone once more.

Watched The Dark Knight so many times within the first week I bought it.

I am always baffled at people who think this. Begins was a decent flick, but with a lame choice of villain(s) that held the movie back. Dark Knight was far superior, but only due to Ledger's absolutely brilliant iconic performance as The Joker. Without the whole lame Two-Face thing tagged on, it would be a near perfect flick.

The only thing about The Dark Knight that I really like is the treatment of the villains. Otherwise, I think it's terrible.

As for the original topic, I think I saw Burton's Sweeney Todd twice in one day: once on my own and then again later that night when my dad expressed interest in watching it.

Romero's "Dawn of the Dead". 3 times in a row. The "Ultimate Edition" DVD set has 3 different cuts (US Theatrical, Extended Version, and European Version), so I watched them backtobacktoback.

"Saving Private Ryan" - First time I saw it, I was so blown away, I re-watched it right after I finished it.

saw Attack of the Clones twice on the same day - the first one in digital projection over in Merrifield Virginia - it was the first theater in the DC area to show the film as such - I was very underwhelmed. Went over to Regal Gallery Place in the evening to see it again with a friend, in 35mm - and guess which of the two was the superior presentation - yup the latter, better colors and much more aggressive surround sound levels.

I do this all the time with movies I own. I will watch the film and then I watch the commentary track turned on. Most recently I did this with Citizen Kane. Roger Ebert's commentary track is so good.
