Just once each for me. Apart from the ROTJ: SE back in '97 and that was mere happenstance. I had seen it with my family and then a friend wanted to see it.

Help Support Collector Freaks Forum:
In the theater I only saw each movie once, but I did see the OT when Lucas "enhanced" it. I was disappointed of course. TFA I saw twice. Will probably see it again in the theater when the next one comes out and they do a twofer.

Holy crap. 
I've usually been a one-and-done type of theatre viewer so I did ANH/ESB/ROTJ once each when they showed the special editions. Then TPM and ROTS once each (skipped AOTC as I was turned off by TPM). In hindsight I wish I'd given the prequels an extra theatre viewing each as maybe I would have appreciated certain aspects a bit more.

Hot damn, that's some stamina. I saw TFA twice, once more on blu ray. I'll watch it again when the new films start coming out.

Edit: My all-time theatrically viewed movies are RAIDERS (37 times) and JAWS (29 times). And I keep adding to those tallies thanks to MovieTavern and other places who regularly screen them. In fact, I'll be seeing RAIDERS again on June 6.

If I had the money I'd open a revival theater. I think I could be very happy doing that for the rest of my life.
I actually almost did this back in 2003. In fact, I was even going to lease the same 2 screen theater I saw Star Wars and many other iconic movies at in my childhood (which had since closed, but was still there, unused). Then my main financial investor backed out at the last minute.
Probably for the best, though. It would have been FUN... but a lot of work, and probably not as financially lucrative as I'd pictured in my mind.

Yeah, you'd need a nice cushion to make it work. But I do like to daydream about it every so often.
Man, a cinema experience must be so much more special to you guys than it is to me. I've never seen Aliens or T2 in the cinema, 2 of my all-time favourites - but once would do me just fine.

I once saw TDK twice in theaters
Terminator 2 is my favorite film of all time and I only saw it once in theaters
There is nothing like experiencing certain movies on a huge screen with a good crowd. It is indeed pretty special.
