hey! i was wondering, which movie with Ewan McGregor u saw a lot of times..(most)?

well, i saw EoTB three times now in theater, one time The Phantom (in theater)...but i really sure it A life less ordinary (on tape, after SG ) that i saw the most..the actors are real good and i think Cameron and Ewan made a great duo..
a beautiful and convincing!!! Robert is funny..i mean Ewan..i really fell in love with his character...Robert is so sweet, nice!, naive...

well, next week-end i`ll try to see a Velvet Goldmine...i`m sure i would love this movie (i saw some pics)..i wonder what`s the story..?? a rock and roll band in the 70`s??? Who`s Curt???...

Where on the net we can find some rare movies (W/ ewan) on sell??

I've lost count. I saw Phantom Menace 19 times, that one I know but the others... Emma twice, Velvet Goldmine three times (and selected bits a few more times!)... the others I've seen 10, 20, 30 times! I've lost count!

Try www.amazon.com and www.reel.com. I got four Ewan movies/TV series via amazon.com.

I've usually watched any of them twice with some movies (guess which ones) watching certain parts several times. I've even thought if I had two vcr's, which I do, but one is downstairs and one is up, I'd dub a special tape called My Ewan Favorite Moments and then I could just watch all the good stuff I've enjoyed the most. The quality would probably stink, though and the tapes I have are just copied off TV. I did order Rogue Trader on DVD since this computer has DVD and will watch that soon. It's taking a long time to get at the video rental... the dogs! I've preorderd TPM and I have a feeling I will be watching that several times.

I think I've seen trainspotting the most. It's my favorite Ewan movie I think.

Deffinately Trainspotting. I saw that before I went to see TPM and I've watched it dozens of times after that. A close second would have to be TPM with ALLO a third.

Okay, PM 17 times, Velvet Goldmine and Life Less Ordinary 3 times each, Pillow Book twice (especially the good parts!--Ewan's good parts that is), and EoTB only once so far, but will definitely go again while it's still in theaters and then buy the video.
The critics have really ruined it for EoTB, I know people who would've gone, but heard the bad reviews and are now sour on it! Believe me, I've tried to convince them to go, but they think I just like it becoz of Ewan--and what's wrong with that???

Claude, I'm a slacker compared with you...TPM is at the top of my list with 9 viewings. Once it comes out on video, though, I'll catch up! (I'm a SW junkie in general, though Ewan is definitely a nice bonus for repeat viewings.) ALLO is second with three viewings.

I don't really know how many times I've seen each movie. Some like Pillow Book I don't watch all the way through all the time.
Trainspotting I've seen so many times. I know TPM about 20 or so. I take a nap during the pod race. Shallow Grave several times as well as Velvet Goldmine. Seen EOTB four times. Every time there were about 70 people in the audience.

I've probably seen Trainspotting and Shallow Grave the most... about a dozen times each. The rest I've seen 5-6 times, except NW and VG... once each. I've seen 'the middle' of PB a few times ... Last time I saw EOTB, there were about 10 people in the theater. I'm glad UNLVR's theater had a good turnout

I've seen Phantom Menace 10 times, but Trainspotting is my most watched Ewan film. I've seen it probably about 20 times (I think!).

I've seen "Velvet Goldmine" the most, at probably around 20 times. I really like Ewan's performance, the movie AND it was the very first one I got on video . Then probably "Little Voice" because it is the second one I got on video. "Brassed Off" about 4 times. TPM is 3 times so far but I have it pre-ordered at Amazon, so when it comes out that will be getting many spins in the VCR. "The Pillow Book" is about 7 times, "Nightwatch" only twice despite having it on video--I just can't watch more than 10 minutes at a time of that film, Ewan or no Ewan. Even though I normally like costume dramas I only saw "Emma" once and really don't have a desire to see it again. "Shallow Grave" about 7 times and "Trainspotting" about 4 times(including at least once more before it gets returned to the video store tomorrow). "Rogue Trader" is always out at Blockbuster so I'm waiting until they have some used copies and just buying it sight unseen. EOTB just once so far. I keep trying to get the theater but stuff keeps coming up.(It was still highly requested for showing times at moviefone.com this weekend maybe it will be in 2nd or 3rd place despite the reviews ). Sorry I really do like this movie, I can't help it .

PS: Ooops, forgot ALLO, about 3 times.

Sorry to hear there were only ten people in your theater Lea. I keep expecting every time I go for it to be just me there.All the bad reviews. I'm very glad I have company though. I went twice to my favorite theater stadium seating where TPM played and I kept track. Twice to the older theater no stadium seating and there were about that many there too.

Welllll, jeez - let's see. I've watched all of the movies I've got (pretty much all of the official releases and whatnot - some I taped off of the tv and some are actual store-bought copies) about a zillion times. Oddly enough, though, the ones I watch the most are (in quasi-order VG, ALLO, Rogue Trader, SG, and Pillow Book. I generally watch VG, SG, RT and ALLO from end to end, but I usually only watch PB for Ewan's bits... (oh, dear... that was such an awful, awful, awful pun... please, forgive me...!)

And, despite the fact that Nightwatch and Emma aren't the best films Ewan's done so far, I really love them, as well... (yep, I like Frank Churchill, icky wig and all!)

And I've seen EoTB three times in the theater...!! Stadium seating, all three times! *waves her ticket stubs happily*

(Could Jae possibly finagle her way into a third trip to the theater to see "Eye"? Watch this space for the conclusion to our climactic cliff-hanger...! )

Sharin' that glittery love, baby,

TPM is the one I've seen in the theatre the most (8 times, but I've got one of those unmentionables so I've actually seen it more than that). EOTB I've seen 4 times so far. The Pillow Book I saw 3 times in the theatre and another 9 times on video. Little Voice I saw twice in the theatre and 8 times on video. Rogue Trader I've seen 5 times. Velvet Goldmine, ALLO, Emma, Nightwatch, Brassed Off, Trainspotting, and Shallow Grave I only saw once in the theatre, but I've seen them over 20 times on video--especially SG (I just love that film!).

The ones I own on video are the ones I've seen the most, as in countless times: ALLO, VG, PB and LOYC. I've seen BO, TS and SG 4x, TPM 3x, LV and Emma 3x, and Nightwatch once (too creepy!). It's hard to say which movie is my fave cuz it depends on what mood I'm in.

Of his movies I only saw TPM in the cinema.
And only once (I'll just have to wait til it's on video) I saw Trainspotting most, and SG (Alex is so great!)as a good second (considering the lenght of time i have it in my possession. The thing is I only can see it in the weekends, when I'm with my parents, I have to buy me a vcr, soon)after that comes ALLO (Robert was soo cute).
I'm still searching for VG, I can't find it, boohoo. well. I keep trying.

I have to go back to college.
Everybody have fun with Ewan-movies

I've seen "Velvet Goldmine" the most (every time when I miss Ewan), more than 15 times I guess.
And I just saw it again before I on-line.
I have a silly question about it. Does Brian really love Curt ?
Um.. I only see Curt love him so much.

Other Ewan’s movies I’ve seen them for several times.
But I haven’t seen NightWatch, The serpent’s Kiss and Rogue Trader yet.
I hope I will see them soon.

Brian Slade obviously loves Curt Wild. Remember the little hearts in his eyes at the restaurant when his agent offers Curt a contract?

It's obvious Slade falls for Curt the instant he sees him (when Curt performs TVEye) and seemed hesitant to dump him after the studio fiasco.

I think Brian loved Curt, or he wouldn't have been in the back of the theatre when Curt sang "Give me Danger". My favorite Ewan film is Pillow Book, because its so beautifully filmed. I've seen them all over and over, except Rogue, I thought it was a little dull. What's the hold up on "Serpent's Kiss" ?!? I really want to see it!
