I'm probably the only one who ever did this...


I'm 28 years old, and I was 13 when this movie came out. I was a huge Chris Farley fan at the time, and I remember that the movie came out on the weekend that I went on spring break from school. So I went to see it on a Friday with my friend. I thought it was hilarious and wanted to see it again, so I went back with another friend the following Sunday to see it again. Then the next day on Monday, I had nothing to do, so I rode my bike down to the theatre and saw it again. Then the next day, I still had nothing to do, so I rode my bike down to the theatre and saw it again. I figured I mightaswell keep my streak alive, so I ended up riding my bike down to the movie theare and seeing Tommy Boy every day during Spring Break in 1995. I'm probably the only one who ever did that for this movie.

Yeah, I guess I was kind of a dork.

awesome, Chris Farley was a comedic god, if I was to count up all the times I've seen Tommy Boy it would bw in the millions.

Don't worry, I saw Lord of the Rings. I'm not going to end this 17 times.

No wonder the film did so well. Thanks for doing that. Otherwise this trash would've bombed.

3x is the most I've ever seen a movie in a theater. It was Gladiator too. Which at the time was amazing, but now... eh.

The most I've ever watched a movie over a "short" period of time was the movie Fight Club, which I watched 8 times in one week. Haven't watched it much since. I did pick it up on Blu-ray and run through it about 3 times. Still trying to decide whether to get Tommyboy on bluray.

Its a good movie, however I don't think it deserves a blu ray purchase.

Picked it up a few weeks back at WM. They had a two pack of Tommy Boy/Black Sheep on blu-ray for only $15. Couldn't resist.
