How Many Times Have You Seen CR in the Theater?

Loeffelholz

I'm excited---I'm finally going (in about 1 hour!) to see CR for the fourth time, myself {[]

I got up to five times. Was going to see it a sixth, but we missed the showing.

Just got back from the cinema; it has held up well for me during repeated viewings...

I saw it on opening day in the U.S. (17 November), again the following day, once in December with my lovely and long-suffering wife, and tonight---which, I reflected with some regret, will probably be my last 'big screen' viewing

I got home, looked at my ticket stub, and realized that it's two months---to the day---since I saw it for the first time.

Two months in release isn't bad, by today's standards :007)

Today I had seen CR for the third time, and in Italy we have it only from 5 january.
In my opinion, and I am 48 years old, this is the better Bond film ever. In a minimalist mode it has all of the previous film, and someone more.
Everytime that I see Craig, I find him incredible, and Eva Green, Giancarlo Giannini, Caterina Murino, Santamaria too. But Craig is our secret agent man, forever.

Twice. I think I appreciated it more the 2nd time. I figure I will wait for the DVD to watch it again.

My wife and I just went with another couple to see the movie tonight. It's my third time seeing it for the first time -every time I see it I notice something new. Tonight a small thing I saw for the first time was the flag of good old Canada flapping about in the upper background when Bond was in the Bahamas.

Anyway I digress, the couple we went with arent big Bond fans and they both kind of poo-pooed the idea of seeing a Bond film but when it was done they both absolutely loved Daniel Craig and Casino Royale.

This night I am at five times for Casino Royale.
I was at Multisala (Theatre with 9 shows) in Castelletto Ticino (Near Lake Maggiore), at 22,30 (price euro 7,50). One hundred persons (110 max).
Every time that I see it, it is better ...
And it was wonderful for me the first time.

Just back from seeing it again, 4th time(!) but hadn't seen it since November I think...it's playing up the street at the local beer-and-pizza theatre, very nice.

It really holds up well, especially the love story. I kept being pleasantly surpised by scenes I'd forgotten about (even the titles, lol, what a treat they were--again). Very much an old friend at this point, can't wait for Bond 22 (can the title of it be the name of the villian? that would be cool...).

Arnold's score is wonderful, Campbell gets about all he can out of Craig, Green is one of the most compelling females leads in the series, the narrative and dialogue snaps and sparkles, great bad guys and action, the card game is still riveting. All it's missing is a scene with skiing in it...maybe the next one?

Nice to have Bond back in action again...for the first time. Lol.

I saw it a total of 6 times in theaters...it's out of them all now...sadly...such a good movie! can't wait to buy it next month!

I managed to catch the last showing at my local cinema last Tuesday - that makes it 10 viewings. I think it's still on for another week at another cinema that's pretty close - so I may try for number 11.

Jeez that's hardcore.

Pendragon

11 times. I haven't seen any Bond film 11 times, let alone at the cinema. ) Sir Miles, aren't you worried that with all these screenings, you might become tired of CR?

I've only seen it twice in the theater so far. Here's another twist on the question. What's the most recent date anyone has seen it? Luckily, this just opened last night (Feb. 16) at our $2.50 theater here in Winchester, VA. (This theater always gets movies that are about 2-3 months old.) I saw it last night. There were more people there than I expected. It was about 75% full. Heck, for $2.50, I plan on seeing it a few more times.

Nope - I still enjoy it (almost) as much as the first time I saw it.
I've only seen DAD about 4 times in total and I'm pretty bored of that one, whereas I've lost count of the number of times I've watched OHMSS and I never tire of it.

Not so much hardcore as sad old git

I saw Casino Royale three times in the cinema, which is rather amazing for me as I have never before watched a film more than once in the cinema. I just couldn't wait for the DVD to be my second viewing!! Certainly with each viewing there was something new to appreciate that I hadn't picked up on before. Now I really look forward to the DVD, even though it is rather lacking in supplemental material.

Catarinita

Jeez, 11 times is grand! My respet=) I've seen CR twice in the cinema, then 2 on DVD, dubbed Russian, and then 2 times on DVD with the English sound... Which makes it 6)))) But I still have some room to improve till I get it to 11=) )

Jamesbondmm

Hmm, I'll have to admit I've only seen it the once. Probably because I went to see it as the regional charity premiere and it cost £45! Everyone in black tie, drinking lots (and I mean lots!) of champagne, plenty of eye-candy - (love those little black numbers) it probably won't be the same seeing again

I saw it for the third time this past Friday night. I went with a friend of mine who is just a 'casual' bond fan. His reaction after seeing it..."I can't wait to see the next one." I always love getting this reaction from others who are not fanatics like us. :007)

Jimbo Bond 007

I've seen it four times now, twice at the cinema and twice on DVD. I think it will take quite a lot more viewings before I even start to tire of it. Hopefully the next installment will come out before that happens.

11 times is very impressive Sir Miles, not sure it makes you a sad git though. One of my friends went to watch the last Star Wars film four times in the same day, I think that rates as being a sad git!!

5th time yesterday, as it's STILL at the second-run pizza and beer theatre up the street, and dang but it had a big crowd at the matinee. Just a remarkable film.

lavabubble

Just got back from my 6th viewing, was just as enthralling as every other one, bribed my beloved with a large Ben and Jerrys

Such a great great film. My DVD has been despatched today and I've won a large foyer standee on Ebay so its been a thoroughly great CR/DC day

Once. Why would I want to give any of these greedy "unoriginal-ideas" hollywood studios more and more of my money? I'll catch it on DVD for $17 and watch it as much as I want instead of shelling out another $12, then another $12, etc, etc at a theatre!

Fine. Different strokes for different folks and all that.

I have now watched Casino Royale on Region 2 and Region 3 DVD and also on blu ray. I still don't tire of it

Watching it on dvd is not like being at the cinema unless of course you have a cinema. It won't come round again soon so make the most of it while it's showing on the big screen

batester2005

i only saw it once in theatre, but i got the film on dvd on the day of release in the uk, and i watched it everyday for two weeks, no bull****. i love that film. even my anti bond girlfriend liked it. iv dumped her now tho, lol

14 days in a row . Even my most favourite film ever I couldn't do that.
