I can only think of two films I've watched twice in one day. The first was Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith and the other which is not a film was an episode of Only Fools and Horses The Jolly Boys Outing.

No, would feel too overwhelming, but I'd often see a film and think 'I want to see it tomorrow, too' to keep the rush. I don't always follow my own resolution though... In fact, I rarely do.

Yes,....recently...."Drive" and "32 short films about Glenn Gould".
If I have the time and like those films I can watch them for quiet some time over and over again. But it must be an excellent film for my tastes.

Yes, I've done so often...particularly if I happen to be watching a film I like on TV, and they play it again immediately after it ends.

I've done it a few times, normally with films that are heavy in symbolism since I struggle to decipher it myself. One example that comes to mind is Barton Fink. I watched it as 'just a movie' and loved it, started reading a bit about the symbolism and realised there was a whole other movie in there I hadn't seen, so went back and watched it an hour or so later.

Yes I have. I used to watch Benny & Joon two times a day and one time I watched 101 Dalmatians five times and I once watched 1997 Titanic three times.

I think the only times I've done it is on Christmas Day when TBS was playing either A Christmas Story or Christmas Vacation all day.

I once watched 'The Science Of Sleep' 4 times in one day, it's one of my favourite movies. It's definitely Michel Gondry's best film to date!

I have also done this with 'Clerks' and 'Mallrats' (I'm a huge Kevin Smith fan)

Yes I have... I have obsessions over several movies that I just watch over and over and over... Two of which are Donnie Darko and Reservoir Dogs. But their are a few others that if I get into the mood for them I can watch them like 2-3 times in a row and maybe another few times throughout the day.

Yes. I once watched the Butterfly Effect twice. After seeing it the first time I played it again straight away. I think I have probably watched a few others twice in a day too.

There are few of them. I've watched Kung Fu Panda twice in a day, then there are others too like Top Gun, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill, etc.
