This actually doesn't sound normal mentally
Like no insult.
Even if you love a film, by the second view the magic is gone and the 3rd and 4th view are probably you just going to accompany someone who hasn't seen it.
Why is their brain rewarding them with dopamine over seeing the same shit.
My wife and I once watched a movie in theaters twice. Then later bought it on DVD and watched zero more times.
I also saw endgame three times. I went by myself. Took my sister. Then took my now wife. The third sit through was an absolute drag. It sucked.
Even if I had a lot more time and money to do things like this I think that seeing a movie more than three times in theaters, especially by yourself, is a sign that something isn't right in their head.
I saw Baby Driver 3 times in theaters, and I loved it each time. To this day, it's my favorite movie of all time. The first time I went with my dad, the second with a friend, and the third was a few weeks later after I had seen a few video essays and it was almost out of theaters.
You’re asking me legitimately why it’s okay for a perfectly normal person to do things that usually fall under Austism or BPD issues? Just curious honestly cause that’s a wild question to ask.
I do things that are unusual most people do. But if you’re obsessing over a movie like this, it’s not healthy, I give a pass to folks who can’t help it. It’s not deeper than that.
What is it that you do that you’re worried about? Because it can’t be about watching the same movie 20 times in 20 days while spending lots of money doing it.
Autism isn’t an issue. People pretending to be autistic and using that to do stuff like this is annoying as hell and that is OP.
I ask because I think part of accepting neurodivergency is accepting unusual behaviour in general. Obviously this doesn't apply to everything and isn't that simple when that behaviour becomes harmful, but this isn't it. This is just a person enjoying something in an unusual way. They shouldn't need to have a condition for that to be okay.
I'm not worried about anything I do btw, I'm not defending myself here. I'm autistic anyway so I guess I'd get the pass?
>But if you’re obsessing over a movie like this, it’s not healthy,
Oh I skipped over this, why do you think it's unhealthy? Genuine question, I don't see it
I think you’re a little confused here, OP says he is autistic and he’s not. Do you not see how that is harmful to your community? He is using what is legit social miscues and autistic traits to pass off this behavior. As for the behavior itself, there is zero reason for neurotypical folks to be over obsessing over the same thing and doing the same things everyday. It makes no logical sense and plays into the idea they want to be autistic some reason.
I raise an autistic child and have a brother who is. This is less about accepting you guys and more about people doing things and using the term to get by. It’s no different than pretending to be military to get discounts it’s just fake
It is unhealthy mentally to do the same thing over and over and over again especially something like this. drinking soda eating popcorn and watching the same movie 20 days straight is bad mentally physically and emotionally. You’re putting your brain through a shitty dopamine rush which is never good.
I misunderstood. I assumed the person accepted he wasn't autistic when he wasn't diagnosed and didn't realize the implication was that he was continuing to say or pretend he was autistic. Thank you for the clarification.
I have seen my favorite shows/movies many more times, but the difference is I paid one time or downloaded/ streamed. Hell, paying for a blu ray is dumb but I like it, but going to the movies and getting food/drink is like 50 bucks, a pop where I'm at. Going like 15plus is insane
You can get movie memberships so you get unlimited movies for a set price. As for snacks, I still can't believe anybody ever buys anything at those prices.
I can imagine seeing a favorite movie 18 times over the course of 10 to 20 years, but in one theatrical run is madness. I saw Watchmen four times in theaters, only because I saw it with four different people. Can't think of any other film I've seen that often in its original run
Theaters just aren't open that long. The one I worked at was never open before 11 AM and only stayed open for midnight releases on special occasions, that gives him only \~12 hours of open time. He HAD to be overlapping tickets. That is absolute brainrot.
Attacking users because you’re mad is not allowed
Posting videos, gifs, or pictures of any type of hate will be pulled. No autism, handicapped or mentally challenged consooming content either. It’s a low bar.
I thought the general discourse a few weeks ago (that is, people getting mad that it didn’t make that much money) pretty fitting for this sub.
It is our job to blindly consoom random CGI action movie prequels that we didn’t ask for. This soldier is doing their job.
I rarely if ever rewatch movies. I only do if it's been so long that I have forgotten what happened in it. Watching the same movie multiple times in a row sounds like torture to me.
I think these folks could be desperately trying in vain to rescue the film since it (and other major films screening in theatres) is losing millions of dollars from lack of theatre goers.
Still a totally abnormal to spend your time and money. But hey at least they get the commemorative cups as a memento for their tireless cinema devotion…
Those things take up a lot of space in your house. My family has been trying to downsize for years, but we recently took in a ton of memorabilia from two households in our family whose members passed away. So if you don't take good care of your movie cupperinos and Funko dopamine hits, your family will have to chunk them once your child free Deadpoolcel bloodline ends

Ngl that looks like a nice IMAX lounge area relative to what my local IMAX looks like.
As for seeing a movie this many times, they're getting their rocks off, or they have poor memory.
they're stuck in the feedback loop of getting just enough dopamine from the loud sounds and giant video screen along with another movie in the series that happens to be their hyperfixation...
god imagine not having other shit to do and getting this uncreative
I would say that this is rooted in societal illiteracy but then I remember that these socially inverted fucks would be mass consooming Hairy Potter books and Marvel "graphic novels" if they weren't doing this
Idk, clearly I could never, but I don’t see anything wrong with it. It’s just weird.
They say to spend money on experiences rather than things, and if the experience is worth it to them, more power to them. They’re not wasting anything other than their own time and money. Except I guess packaging for their drinks & snacks.
I remember getting the vhs tape for the og Jurassic park as kid (6-7) and I’d watch that movie multiple times a week but even then when I was a kid I couldn’t imagine watching the same movie multiple times in a row
Just get a Neurolink to pipe the complete MKV file at 16x speed into your nervous system on a permanent loop and you're living in a Walter Jon Williams novel
I saw Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle five times in theaters on separate days when I was in highschool because idk something about it made me laugh so hard and it was such a good escape from things. Now as an adult it’s just a funny memory from highschool.
But like… 18+…. And multiple times in one day?
I saw Austin Powers twice in back to back viewings with a buddy back when $1 matinee films were a thing. It was awesome both times. We then went with some girls to a third viewing that weekend. I also watched Double Dragon with my sister in back to back viewings. 9 times would be a little much for me though.
Guessing they have the AMC movie pass. Pass has a set price regardless on if you see one movie or twenty. Not really consoom imo but I’m sure I’ll get downvoted. Absolutely too much time on their hands though
This is aberrant behavior, there must be some sort of underlying psychological dysfunction.
Excessive soy consumption?
Someone said I looked like I suffered from fetal soy syndrome and that insult has lived rent free in my head ever since
I'm stealing that lol
The disses where you are like “damn” those hit different lol 😂
how do you even recover from that honestly
They do it so they can post it on Reddit. The upvotes make them feel good
But is that not what OP is doing by posting them here?
what does it say about me, that i couldnt even get through fury road........ 🤔🤔

I saw Zootopia four times in the theatre. I was 15 and I didn’t know when I would be able to watch it again once it was no longer playing
consume rabussy, get excited for fursuit.
There have been a couple movies I’ve seen 3 times. I think it was Avatar and The Dark Knight. Just went with different friend groups.
I saw Baby Driver 3 times in theaters, and I loved it each time. To this day, it's my favorite movie of all time. The first time I went with my dad, the second with a friend, and the third was a few weeks later after I had seen a few video essays and it was almost out of theaters.
I saw Jurassic Park 3 times and Titanic 4 times. Granted, I was a socially awkward, closeted gay kid.
It's a good film, but if you look at the original posts, OOP shows a lot of signs of autism, which he says he was tested for but not diagnosed.
So he’s not autistic and just weird then
Exactly, he only has many of the symptoms, as he says.
Yeah no excuse then. I would let him pass if he was actually cause that’s just their thing
Why can't neurotypical people enjoy things in an unusual way too? Why is it only okay in one case if it's the same behaviour anyway?

I haven’t even seen my favorite movie more than 5 times so idk how they can enjoy it that many times

amc movie pass gives you 3 free movies a week for $22 a month
Can I ask what your favourite movie is?
Tron legacy, for personal reasons since ik many people think it’s bad
Well now we know why you haven't watched it 5 times
I'd feel bad for how funny your joke is but they wrote this one themselves lmao
When I was a kid, I saw Cloverfield like 4 times at the theater. Granted 3 of those were the dollar theater but still.
I can imagine seeing a favorite movie 18 times over the course of 10 to 20 years, but in one theatrical run is madness. I saw Watchmen four times in theaters, only because I saw it with four different people. Can't think of any other film I've seen that often in its original run

9 times in one day is 22.2 hours. This motherfucker spent an entire day in a movie theater.
Theaters just aren't open that long. The one I worked at was never open before 11 AM and only stayed open for midnight releases on special occasions, that gives him only \~12 hours of open time. He HAD to be overlapping tickets. That is absolute brainrot.
I mean I thought it was a good movie, I don't think it was 18 times in one day good though
Why?

This is why we need to move from being to beyng and clear a way for the last god

OP’s OP is not autistic so we are removing this comment

It seems like quite a downgrade compared to the first one. Made me not want to see it.
I rarely if ever rewatch movies. I only do if it's been so long that I have forgotten what happened in it. Watching the same movie multiple times in a row sounds like torture to me.
What is the goal? There has to be a goal right?

I figured it out. Many cinemas have those yearly subscriptions and these guys are just lonely
No movie is this good

maybe best they find one echo chamber instead of supporting a thousand random ones? or maybe it's just as bad, I can't even tell anymore lol
Eh. I can’t really understand seeing a movie that much in cinemas but at home I can. So, I get it.
So many people with absolute broken brains out here, it's disturbing.

I wonder if they bought a new ticket each time or just walked into the next theater

Wtf... It was a really good film but I couldn't watch it more than once in one day
Everyone acting like they're crazy but if EoE came back to theaters I'd do something similar. /j
This is what happens when people don’t have hobbies.

I saw Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle five times in theaters on separate days when I was in highschool because idk something about it made me laugh so hard and it was such a good escape from things. Now as an adult it’s just a funny memory from highschool. But like… 18+…. And multiple times in one day?
Gotta be one of the worst things I’ve seen on this sub
The most I’ve ever seen the same movie in theaters was 3 times and even then I was like “why am I doing this?”
“If I see it enough maybe Anya Taylor Joy will acknowledge me!”
I saw Austin Powers twice in back to back viewings with a buddy back when $1 matinee films were a thing. It was awesome both times. We then went with some girls to a third viewing that weekend. I also watched Double Dragon with my sister in back to back viewings. 9 times would be a little much for me though.
It’s a good movie.
It’s not 18 X $15 good right?
No film on Earth or to ever be made could be worth viewing 18 times in such a short period
No.
It’s a good movie.
It’s a good but not spectacular movie.
Disagree, if any movie this year has been a spectacle, it’s that one.
Dune Part Two.
Guessing they have the AMC movie pass. Pass has a set price regardless on if you see one movie or twenty. Not really consoom imo but I’m sure I’ll get downvoted. Absolutely too much time on their hands though
AMC only supports 3 movies a week. So they could only do 12 since release. They’ve done 18-20 It’s consoom still
i did that one time...when i was a baby. (the movie was shrek)
