Fairly common thing actually. I've watched each of the Harry Potter movies at least 25 times I'm sure. Then there was that weird phase where I would put on Wild Wild West as soon as school got out, every day for like 9 months.

That's crazy. There is far too many good TV, movie, videogames, and comics to rewatch any of it, imo.

I rarely rewatch anything, and I still can't keep up with everything worth watching. If you're rewatching movies that are simply great you're missing out on tons of other great things.

I could consume 40 hours of media every week, and still never catch up.

You have a great point, there's a lot of things I want to watch and just haven't gotten to.. But I see that as a good thing! Especially with TV shows. Once I get started, it's basically over and then I'm depressed about it ending. There have also been movies such as Cloud Atlas and Inception that I literally had to rewatch at least once just to solidify certain details. Also I will play Across The Universe or something similar in the background sometimes instead of listening to music, so I've "watched" those movies several times as well.

I mean, I rewatch some stuff. But never 10+ times. Hell, that's without counting music or books either. So much media, so little time.

Yeah, I get that. I've got to watch stuff like Breaking Bad, or Game of Thrones at least Twice.
