Saw it once, was going to see it again but everyone I was going with ended up having to cancel so I didn't. Great movie, but I'll wait for the DVD before seeing it again.

I saw it twice first time with family (because I was tired of having to go LaLaLa every time I opened the starwars form and the second time with my friends and that time round I did not miss the falcon.

Somewhere between 9 and 10 times. A friend of mine works in the Warner Village Cinema and he gave me his free pass. Enjoyed it even more with each showing.

I've seen it only once untill now, but I don't have a limit in my mind, because I might have the desire to rewatch all 6 movies again and again.

I'm relieved to see that I'm not alone in the 6+ category. :) I was a little concerned when I was still the only one there after the first 10 or so votes came in.

Without that free pass you spent $60.75 - $90, funny farm escapee!

You still spent 25 hours watching this movie in 1 1/2 months!

And you can't escape by saying "I watched the work print at home on my computer" because then I will say "OMG U FANb01 STEALING FROM TEH LUKAS!!!1"

But the crown for crazy ROTS watcher fan is still unchallenged. ;)

Once. I usually can remember things well enough that I don't read/watch anything multiple times unless there is a 3 year or longer gap between viewings. Hell when FOX played Episode II a week after III opened, that was my second time seeing Episode II.

I've seen it four times alltogether now. I thought about seeing it once more, but I think I'm done until the DVD comes out.

zero.

Its just 'one of those things' I've not got around to yet. Used to be a cinema person, but not for a long time now. Am reluctant to see a semi-rubbish hack version of the movie, so am waiting for the DVD later this year.

Weird really, considering my Star Wars background :roll:

Oh Spanky, has your banning taught you nothing about tact...

I saw it once, partly because it was a hassle to go the movies on Okinawa and partly because it'll be exactly the same the second time around.

3 times in the cinema, have a rip at home on disc (.avi format) which I've used to watch my favorite scenes over and over.

I saw it thrice. The first time was with one group of friends on the afternoon of the premiere (May 19th) and the second with my brother and cousin the same evening. That was the first time I've ever seen a movie twice in theatres, and on the same day. I saw it for the third time with my best friends the very next day. After that, I was broke for some time.

Saw it once with my brother. Thinking about seeing it again before the DVD comes out. But the theater is so far away and I still haven't seen Batman Begins, so will probably wait for the dvd.

I've seen it once, but I voted "two", since I hope to see it again while it's still in theaters. I was thinking that there were some things I wasn't paying enough attention to that made it so I didn't enjoy the movie as much as I could have.

Twice. Once on the opening session, then the Friday.

My local cinema closed down, so no more screenings for me.

In India too apparently. The ROTS copy I picked up few weeks back had hindi listed in the language list. Quality wise the bootlegs suck compared to an original DVD release. No reason to waste money on them if you can catch it in a theater.

Always two there are. Screenings that is. I've seen all the prequels twice, without really intending to. It just happens...
