How many times...

<< < (3/9) > >>

Lynne:
I changed the poll to remove 'in the theatre' so we can keep up with total viewings.  I'm stopping my personal count with 19 theatre viewings.

How in the world could anyone stand so many viewings?!?  I wudda ended up institutionalized, for damned sure.

We've been talking some in the Ladies' Corner about the need to be institutionalized. :) Seriously, this has worked its way into my subconscious and my dreams in a way nothing else I can ever remember.  I have had all the symptoms you mention plus the Brokeback evangelism problem where I'm nearly desperate for someone I know to understand this (and they do not - so you can add disappointment and frustration to the list).  I'll think I'm over the evangelism once and for all, and then something will spark an idea and I'm off again.

I've made a pact with myself that I WILL NOT visit this board during work hours.  The past few weeks, if I ever get here, the next thing I know, hours have elapsed....probably not a good career move.

For me it's not a matter of 'standing' so many viewings, but more of a compulsion to see it again.  I think I am only really processing my feelings about it a little bit at a time and being engrossed there on Brokeback is giving me the space to work on them.

CLICK TO ENLARGE...and--you can slide it around, too (gee, I usually post the other one..)The others are also among o my favorites:

I never said: 25 times in the theater, and my fantastic laptop will be home tomorrow aftrer a trip to Ohio, AND I get to see it on a huge, magnificent Sony, with the best DVD equipment in the country tomorrow too-made a convert.

bbm_stitchbuffyfan:
I saw it 5 times in theatres. Before BBM, I had never seen a movie more than twice in theatres.

moremojo:
I saw this very great film five times in the theatre. I would have gone even more, if the last theatre in the area showing it had not pulled the film the weekend before the DVD was released.
