Title: how many times did you see PDL?
Post by: tpfkabi on February 05, 2003, 10:31:24 PM
i'm restricting this to times you actually paid for a ticket and watched PDL.

i saw it 3 times.
the first one may be iffy though......the ticket stub taker was an old man and when i gave him my stub, he said something along the lines of, "you'll like this one." this shocked me that a really old man would like PDL. then i looked at my stub at home and it said "MY Big Fat.." how that happened i don't know.
anywho, i saw it 3 times and paid 3 times.
i saw this because i figure someone probably works as a projectionist or something

I too saw it twice and I took someone 'new' with me each time.  I was planning on seeing it a third time but it only lasted three weeks in the theater in this little town of Tupelo, MS.  I had a friend who was anxious to see it and he loved Magnolia so this was going to be great, but, it wasn't meant to be.  The film didn't play too well in the smaller towns (and mine was no exception) which is a shame.  There were only a few people in the theater on it's opening night.  But as for me, I loved it from the first frame on.  I guess everyone else just doesn't know what they're missing.

that's funny. but in a way you're lucky. you still get to anticipate.
however, i anticipate seeing it a 5th time.

That reminds me of a specific Seinfeld episode.

Hold on to your butts...  27.  AND since an arthouse-type cinema in Columbia, MO is showing it again tomorrow evening, it's soon to become 28.

Twice.  Opening day, Oct. 11, The Grove in L.A.  A week or so later at the Grove.  I considered seeing it again, as it played in L.A. for like 4 months or so.  But then I remembered, I saw Boogie Nights twice in a theater, Mangolia twice in a theater.  Looking forward to seeing it again on DVD, whenever it gets released to that format.  I am letting PDL settle into my brain, will revisit it soon with a fresh perspective on it.
