dvd-4-life

With me-90 days.That way you don't get tired or burned out of a favorite disc.

TomOpus

Sometimes I'll wait months... sometimes days. It just depends on my mood. There are a few movies I'd never get burned out on. One of the beauties of DVD is that you don't have to worry about quality loss with each viewing like with VHS.

Skank

I've watched a movie then watched it again straight away with a commentary on. It's all a matter of mood.

Rocky_Stallone

It all depends on how much I like the movie.

Jericho

I usually watch the DVD when I get it, then wait 6 months or so. Although I have broken that rule a few times. Then after that, it's what ever I'm in the mood for.

danol

3 hours to 2 years, favorites Hackers, THEM, Coyote Ugly, Sum of All Fears, and Cutaway~sky diving~Tom Beringer. All of the above movies have been watched between 55 and 350 times+, the highest being THEM 1954 (Giant Ants); the lowest being 'Sum' for it's still newish.

for me it's a matter of priority. I also have a schedule and I rotate older dvds only because it's the only way to check for delamination, mistakenly called rot. other than that....it's a mood thing.

dbmottle

For me, it depends upon the movie. Some like Fight Club, LOTR, Gladiator, T2, Die Hard, Tombstone, Pulp Fiction, Shrek, and Braveheart I watch all the time. Others I watch less frequently. Also, some films just have a much better replay value than others.

SideShow

Just depends on my mood and what movie I want to watch, but usually it's a few months.

ianholm

I watched the Aliens DVD twice in the same day. It was the first time I saw the extended cut and it was just amazing!

Matthew Chmiel

1 second to months on an end.

Hell, I watched Van Wilder 9 times in a 5 day period. If that's not questioning my sanity, then I don't know what will...

UKingdom

I've thought about this a lot myself; It's probably in the months range; there's only a few DVDs I have watched more than 2 or 3 times. Having said that, isn't it more economically sound to rent instead or purchase? I figure unless you're going to watch it more than 3 times, it's better off to rent, ESPECIALLY if the disc cost you more than $16-17 (which is most DVDs). I guess I REALLY need to start downsizing and buying less....but I can't!

gutwrencher

all depends on what your goal is. some people have no desire to have a film library, but only to hang-out in the current format until a better one comes along. I see alot of value in my library. I wish to own all of my personal fav films, not just for entertainment value but as to contruct a perfect reference library. dvds may not be around for years as a format, but it is supposed to last years and years when it comes to disc life itself. unless we were misled. this is my only concern. so maybe I'll watch a dvd only once in the next 3 years. is that a waste? not to me. as far as renting....I think I rented a tape about 8 years ago.

Fok

Some movies I can watch once a month. For other movies its like once every 6-7 months.

Pac-Rat

I've done that numerous times too. Although I don't think I could do it on DVD's with multiple commentaries.

eedoon

It depends for me too. I don't want to ruin the experience watching my favourite movie by watching it too often.

atari2600

average 6 months or so.

Gdrlv

Depends on the film...some I've only watched once, but there's DVDs I own that I've watched many times. Hell, I watched Rules of Attraction 4 times in two weeks. I hated the movie the first time I saw it, gave it another chance and then developed a minor obsession with it...

Avid

I watch the movie and all the extras when I first buy the DVD. And then I wait years to watch it again.

Bought my player over two years ago. Last month was the first time I watched a disk again. This weekend I increased that number to two rewatching the Matrix.

thecrazydude

it really depends on my mood. I used to watch a movie over and over, but mostly now I watch a movie once and put it away for a while. I have so many choices and such limited time, I feel the urge to move on to another movie.

Calculon

1. Watch new DVD
2. Watch most extras/commentaries within a week
3. Try to watch each one I decide to keep every 6 months or so. Even keep a spreadsheet to remind me which titles I've been neglecting.
4. ???
5. Profit

shanester

It depends if it`s a box set like say Band Of Brothers then your not gonna watch that once a month..I have to get into that "war" mode to want to sit through the whole set concurrently..I saw it when it first came out in November but I probably won`t get back to it until the fall again..

I find that`s my view of war movies (which I love btw) in general there not something you can just pop in when your bored..You really have to be in that angry revengeful mood..

Other films like Jaws,French Connection,Dirty Harry I can watch every 2-3 months no problem

steebo777

It really depends for me as well. I watched Mulholland Drive when I first bought it 4 or 5 times over a 2 day period (it was that good). Usually though, I wait for a long time because the ratio of buying movies to being able to watch them is much greater in the buying direction. I still have about 20-30 movies I still haven't watched yet that I bought.l

Dabaomb

I think it can rage from immediately to NEVER. Yes, never watching the movie again, not cuz I don't wanna, but cuz of a lack of time.

Deckard-10

It depends on the movie and my mood. &nbsp Some movies I can watch once a week, others might take me a few months to a year.
