I used to work in a movie theater when I lived up in Berkeley.
Probably saw these at least a dozen times-- Seven, Sense and Sensibility, Toy Story, First Wives Club. So many more, can't really remember them all.
Now I rarely see anything in the theater, and just wait for the blu-ray release.

I'm the opposite.  I tend to see everything in the theaters and nothing on blu-ray except the movie I really want to own.  It's cheaper to see it in the theater than at home.

Blade Runner 2049 I saw four times - hahahaha.

I also saw Blade Runner a bunch of times in the theater.  But I'm a old Blade Runner fan.  Back before streaming or a gazillion channels on cable, I used to have the original Blade Runner playing constantly on laser disc.  I would just switch to that when there was nothing else to watch.  This is where the comic-con promotions play in.  I really appreciated the Blade Runner 2049 offsite.  I'm wearing the Blade Runner 2049 t-shirt I got from that right now.

I saw Star Wars a New Hope several times in the theater as a kid. Probably because I lived in a small town, and there wasn't much else to do, and it was there for months. Oh, and because I loved it!

There’s no point if it’s not in a theater. :)

Easily, it’s A New Hope. I seriously lost count “a long, long time ago.” I saw it opening night 41 years ago almost to the day and many nights afterwards, and saw it every time it was re-released. When it first came out on VHS, I knew it so well I could drop the needle on the vinyl soundtrack for key scenes to create the first stereo movie in our apartment.

David Fincher's "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" as I'd been obsessed withthe books for a long time and the Swedish made-for-tv movies really disappointed me. Fincher did not disappoint me as a book faithful. Saw it 6 times in the theater that Christmas

Coraline 3 times.  2 for the 3D and once regular.  I felt the 3D they used was so cool and I figured it would be a "See it in Theater" example.  I have the Blu Ray and a 3D TV and I was right, the 3D at home does not come close to replicating the experience in my opinion.

We saw The Greatest Showman 6 times -- but only because of Moviepass! Now that Moviepass won't let you see a movie more than once anymore, that won't be happening again, haha. Other than that, I don't think I've ever seen a movie more than twice at the theater.

One of the best uses of 3D I've ever seen.

This is a great thread topic! I see movies as a sacred ritual; I can't just see any movie. It has to be good either through reviews or word-of-mouth. After all, I'm spending my hard earned money on tickets, concessions, and parking (I live in LA). So I have to be very selective because I could easily be spending $50+ just on 1 movie outing. For me, to see a movie more than once garners that it's great and it's worth my money and time to be seen once again. It's a short list so hopefully I'll build it up throughout the years:

Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 1-twice. It was unlike anything I've seen before. However, the sequel didn't prompt me to see it twice.
Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens-not a perfect movie, but a FUN one. I saw it 4 times.
Avengers Infinity War-only seen it once so far, but I'm definitely going to see it again.
*LALA Land-only once BUT every time I see it on TV I hope that the ending changes in the hopes that

The Harry Potter movies fill that role for me.  When I'm stressed they help out.  Otherwise, I don't particularly like watching them.
