I saw The Fellowship of the Ring nine times in theaters. Once i hit time #4 or #5, I realized i had to keep going until I could say i saw it once for each member of the fellowship.
As a little child, Asterix and the 12 trials (very lose translation)
As an adult, Mad Max Fury Road. Fucking amazing on the big screen.
Wreck it Ralph. Infinity War. Into the Spider-Verse. Watched them twice each in IMAX.
Fight club
Scott Pilgrim vs the world, several friends hadn't seen it yet so of course i went with them. fantastic movie that still goes pretty hard.
Interstellar, I went to see it the first time with friends then two others times alone.
The second time I got goosebumps as soon as the organ started playing in the cornfield chase.
I think the only movie I've seen multiple times in the theater was Black Panther
Dang. Upon thinking about it, I donβt think Iβve ever actually done this. Recently, I did rent Beau Is Afraid for 48 hours and watched it 2 nights in a row because it was such a mindf*ck
City of God.
Jurassic Park, the original Star Wars trilogy when it was released in theaters again before the prequels, Inception, and the newest Mad Max. There were a few others, but those are the ones I remember.
Mad Max.
I saw Oppenheimer in IMAX opening day and loved it so much I did it again a week later doing the Barbenheiner. Listening to it's soaring score in IMAX was practically a religious experience
Previously, I had never ever seen a movie in theaters twice. If I had seen a movie once and wanted to watch it again, I could wait to buy it for myself. It just didn't ever make much sense to me as to why anyone would watch the same movie multiple times in like a one-month time span.
And then Everything Everywhere All At Once came out, and I saw it again the week after I saw it the first time, and then I understood. What a fantastic movie.

BMX Bandits
I also went to see this in the cinema a few times as a kid and loved it. I happened to rewatch it a few weeks ago as I hadn't seen it since.
My advice is to keep your treasured memories. It unfortunately doesn't hold up well. :)
Fantastic Planet, in the 80s.
I saw Ghostbusters Afterlife twice. That may be the only movie I've seen in theater twice on initial run.
I did see the 3 BTTF movies in theater even though I've owned the tapes and DVDs for decades.
Titanic. Saw it 4 times in the theater.
I actually wondered if it was going to sink the first time I watched it. Movie is so well made you didn't even realize what's going to happen until it does.
Captain Marvel, great 90s soundtrack and female superhero amongst a sea of male ones. Not the best marvel movie but enjoyable enough for me to watch twice.
I saw Independence Day 3 times in the theater.
The Room - not a good movie but I did enjoy it.
Iron Man. Two or three times, depending if you count when they fucked up the reel and restarted it over partway in.
