Date: 2014-07-31 02:57 pm (UTC)I have lost count how often I've watched How To Train Your Dragon, or My Neighbour Totoro, but I'm fairly certain it's above 40 in each case. Frozen is probably over 20 by now. I'm pretty certain I've seen the Lego Movie 5 times already and we only got it last week.
Ok, so
somemost of the time I'm doing something else while the film plays. But it's still taking up my attention, bringing patterns to the fore. I can't bear Toy Story or its sequels any more, while I still love HTTYD. Lego Movie is less annoying than Toy Story but I suspect it may go the same way if I see it too many more times.Avengers Assemble is probably the one I still watch repeatedly for myself, rather than C, although C will now happily watch it with me.
