What's a movie you enjoyed so much in theaters you saw it multiple times there? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Personally, The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I knew it was going to be quite the experience before I went for the first time‡ but it was so much fun I had to keep going back bringing friends each time.

It's still a fun tradition to do though we haven't done it since last year, we're probably going to try and go again in a few weeks.

‡ I had seen it many times before going to see it in theaters for the first time.

While I enjoy the Pirates trilogy, I feel like they could just as easily have kept it a single movie. It was fine, the story was conclusive enough to satisfy and open ended enough to tickle the imagination.

Not everything has to be turned into a franchise or a ‘verse.

I do agree, and generally I don't want everything to be a franchise or a verse. However I feel that a trilogy although generally profit driven can expand a film in a nice way, such as the original star wars or Indiana Jones trilogies.
