I can't remember the last time I saw a movie more than twice in the theater and I rarely read books more than once, but I have read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series numerous times, probably four or five.

I've tried and failed to read Finnegan's Wake at least five times.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Neuromancer" are both books that I've read a whole bunch of times.
I've seen "The Warriors" quite a few times back to back, even if not in a theater. But my crowning accomplishment in movie endurance is watching John Carpenter's "Dark Star" three times in a row. |

"Naked Lunch" might be the book I've reread most, several times I started all over immediately after finishing. It's so full of weird and hilarious situations, that it never runs out of surprises.
I don't go to the cinema, since movies in Germany are dubbed and it sounds terrible, even if done well.

But I generally enjoy reading books several times, I've read all my favourite books about three or four times and especially beloved ones like "Steppenwolf", "Naked Lunch" or "Invitation To A Beheading" more than ten times.
