How many times have you watched the DVD?

As of now, I have resisted watching the DVD.  I am going to the last theatre showing of BBM in Chicago tonight.  Sometime after that, I will open the dvd and watch it.

There is one copy of the dvd I shall never open.  It is kept in a small box containing things that are dear to me....

I watched once after receiving it in the mail. I find it so emotional, that I'm a wreck for the rest of the day. I think I'll have to put it away for awhile.

Once - last night. I put a little note in the DVD to write the date of viewing.

It was hard for me...I cried my eyes out.

Finally, once and I survived it.  My fellow frogs on the French thread helped me to get ready for it today, it was was a busy and interesting day on the French thread.  Frogs rock!  Second viewing on DVD is planned tomorrow evening with friends, they already saw BBM.

1 full viewing last night. I'm going to try to watch it tonight and have plans for Monday at another friend's house. I'm still tearing up on and off and feel that ache inside so I may not be able to watch it tonight. I have a few scenes to check out though- I think I can handle that.

2nd time Saturday, it took us 5 hours... we kept watching scenes over and over again!

I tried a 3rd time yesterday, I was not able to go trough it... severe PBS!

Once so far.  I am trying to space it out so it stays fresh. 
Title: Re: How many times have you watched the DVD?
Post by: shieldmaid on Apr 12, 2006, 07:54 PM
once so far, but with certain scenes replayed. . . .  I have to watch it at times when I can feel at peace and uninterrupted, hard to come by at this time of year.
Title: Re: How many times have you watched the DVD?

I have watched it 3 times. My friend, Ken, asked me today if I would bring it up to his place next week and we watch it again.

I told him that we could put the subtitles on and also pause it to discuss certain scenes. We might have seen it in the theater; but, he had a operation in January and has been in and out of the hospital a number of times since.

He has an old mono tv but a new DVD/VCR and a new stereo. I told him we could connect the stereo to the player and hear it in stereo.

Title: Re: How many times have you watched the DVD?

5 times in full.

Scene-wise, I've watched certain scenes too many times to count.  ;)
Title: Re: How many times have you watched the DVD?
Post by: NoReins on Apr 28, 2006, 05:10 PM
Got it on Wednesday and watched it one and a half times so far, plus several extra viewings of the SNIT and the reunion kiss (I know, I know...) Also watched the scenes from Lightning Flat a couple of extra times trying to hear/see the "I love you" (worth the effort)

Had been planning to watch it with my boyfriend tonight, but ended up not having the time (never enough time...) It's a holiday weekend here in the UK though, so I'm sure I'll find a spare couple of hours at some point ;)

Well, believe it or not, I haven't watched it all yet. I have two copies, the widescreen and the full screen versions, and both have not been opened! Note that this is coming from someone who saw BBM nine times in the theater...

I am not sure why. Part of it is that I have been waiting for a "good" time, whatever that means. Mostly, though, I think that is just a lack of courage. The thought of sitting in my living room by myself facing all the emotions that will come to the surface is just enough to stop me in my tracks, apparently. If I had someone to watch with, it might be different; or if the movie were still playing in the theater, I would be there in an instant... Weird... For now, the plastic wrap remains intact...

I know what you feel, I watched it 3 times in full, I found a theater that was still playing it in between, I ran to the theater.  At the end of the first watch of he DVD by myself, in my living room I was just an emotional wretch and I'm kind of scared to watch it again, at least alone.  BTW, BBM is not made for a TV screen, it doesn't fit.

Sorry I was OT

Post by: shieldmaid on May 11, 2006, 07:40 AM
I haven't yet watched it in full. I have watched from the beginning through the end of their summer on BBM, and I've watched FNIT, SNIT, and the reunion scene countless times as well.  Like some others, I just haven't gotten what feels like "the right time" yet to sit through an entire, emotional screening.  I want to--but have been a little afraid to so far.

Post by: pierralex on May 13, 2006, 08:46 PM
First time for me tonight! Well, entirely I mean, as I had already watched several scenes... :P
I watched it with the english subtitles, so that I understand better what they say exactly :)

I watched the DVD at least ten to fifteen times.  I like to freeze it during certain scenes.  It still astounds me that this film did not win  best picture at the Oscars.

ohh i lost the count the last month, but i watched hundred times and never stop, sometimes when i can't resist the tiredness on a hard working day, i go to my room and watch the movie again and forces return to me, it's magic.

As Jack said, never enough.   I loved the movie, but the ending is SO hard to get through.  I do watch the happier parts from time to time.  I am writing BBM stories.

Couldn't begin to count, though it's not once a wk. like it was for the longest time.  I would get so depressed that that was all I thought about for mths.  I try to watch it once a mth. or so, and it doesn't seem to get me down like it did.  It still hurts, but at least I don't feel like I've been stabbed in the heart.
