Bond movies you saw - and how many times - at the cinema?

Brosnan_fan

Seeing that many of us are hard-core Bond fans who have made frequent visits to the cinemas, I feel we may as well let everybody know which ones we saw, and how many times.

I saw TSWLM once when I was 3 or 4. From AVTAK onwards, I saw (just about) every following Bond film once; the exceptions were CR (haven't seen), and DAD, which I saw twice (Hey, I liked it back then ).

Peppermill

I became a Bond fan in the dark ages between LTK and GE so GE was my first Bond movie I saw in the cinema.

GE => 3 times
TND => 2 times
TWINE => 3 times (the first was the VIP premiére in Amsterdam where I met Desmond Llewelyn)
DAD => 2 times
CR => 5 times
QoS => 3 times
SF => 2,5 times (see my topic about brining a 5 year old to see Skyfall )

From TSWLM on, I'd of watched each around four times in the cinema.
Then ad infinitum on Vhs, DVD and now Bly-ray. )

Right let me think...

Dr No to Goldeneye. => 00. I grew up with Bond on Bank Holidays and Easter. However, I got a lot of insight into 007 from my late Mum and Grandparents, and that is worth more than the best seats at any premiere!


TND, TWINE, & DAD => 1 Each.
CR => 6 times (It was at my Odeon for several months. - Full scale cinema Bond. Marvelous! :007)
QoS => 2. My eyes, my eyes!
SF => 3 times.

As I said in another thread, I watched DAF 17 times in the cinema.... the others (to that point) I didn't keep count of.

I saw Goldeneye three times during its original cinema run, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough, and Die Another Day twice during their respective cinema runs. Casino Royale I enjoyed it so much I watched it three times in the cinema, including while I was on vacation in Whistler British Columbia skiing with my father. Quantum of Solace I watched twice, once with friends and then with my father. Skyfall I saw three times including once in IMAX and it was even better in IMAX that it was in a regular cinema.

Brosnan films will hold the record.. by the time DaD came out I was already starting to get tired of the theatre experience and now I hardly ever go to one. Just too expensive and most movies aren't that appealing to me for the effort. There used to be a time I would go to a theatre once or twice a week.. but with rising prices and the increase of darker, grittier, and unnecessarily violent films or just plain stupid films... I go maybe once or twice a year.

I find it weird, that I get my old fun film time from a nostalgia gaming niche market.... Far Cry: Blood Dragon is like the perfect popcorn movie! Of course, I will admit that when I got around to seeing Battleship on HBO a few months ago I was blown away at how perfect of an action film it was. I miss those days...

Charmed & Dangerous

DAF, LALD, TMWTGG, TSWLM, Moonraker, FYEO, Octopussy, AVTAK, TLD, LTK.... I saw them all in the cinema once, when they were first released.

Back in the 70s they also did Double-Bills (remember them?) pairing up Bond films, so I saw Thunderball and YOLT together, along with the other Connery films (can't remember which paired with which).

GE, TND, TWINE, DAD, CR and QoS.... All twice.

Skyfall - thrice

The only Bond I've never seen in the cinema is OHMSS- a shame as it's one of my absolute favourites.

bondaholic007

Being from a younger generation I haven't seen as many I would of liked to...

Goldfinger - Once (Monday Classic Showing)
Die Another Day - Once
Casino Royale - Three Times
Quantum Of Solace -Three Times
Skyfall - Seven Times

Jarvio

DAD - Once
CR - Twice
QOS - Thrice
SF - Thrice

PPK 7.65mm

I nearly forgot to mention I also saw Goldfinger on the big screen last summer. It was a one day engagement, and I loved it even though the film started skipping during the Fort Know scenes.

Sir Miles

I'm trying to remember how many times for each at the cinema...I think it's...

Goldfinger - 1 (a re-screening when they released a digital copy)
Diamonds Are Forever - 2 (again a re-screening released when LALD was out)
Live And Let Die - 1 (the first I ever saw at the cinema, in Liverpool)
The Man With The Golden Gun - 1
The Spy Who Loved Me - 3
Moonraker - 1
For Your Eyes Only - 3
Octopussy - 1
Never Say Never Again - 1
A View To A Kill - 3 (the start of being able to go on my own)
The Living Daylights - 5
Licence To Kill - 4
Goldeneye - 7
Tomorrow Never Dies - 7
The World Is Not Enough - 7
Die Another Day - 4
Casino Royale - 12
Quantum Of Solace - 11
Skyfall - 9

M, did you really see QoS 11 times? How do you deal with the sharp cuts of the action sequences? Impressed at 12 for CR , that's double my best.

Barbell, 17 times for DAF? That's impressive for any film far less a Bond!

Jarvio

My record is joint 3 times for both QOS and SF. I wanted SF to beat that record, but I had no more buddies to go with and couldn't face going alone )

I did, yes....I have no problems with any of the sharp cuts and - shock, horror - I actually like them

I only saw DAD once. Thought it was really bad. I hated the dialogue in the film, the obvious use of CGI etc. The only thing i liked in DAD was John Cleese as Q.
