Finally.

"From Marvel Entertainment and KIDdesigns, the wiggly little guy will run about $14.99 and plays an electronic version of the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back" from a built-in speaker."

Check the page for the video.

All tickets are of different dates, couple of tickets are of two different shows on the same date.

This guy has seen Guardians of the Galaxy 28 times.

That's a lot!
We weren't that nuts even back in the day for Star Wars.

That kid needs a girlfriend. Or at least, a subscription to Playboy magazine.

I saw it only 3 times myself. I don't think I can watch a movie that many times in such short span either. But I love the level of obsession and dedication he has towards it, no matter how silly and ridiculous others might consider him to be.

This is one of the examples of being a true nerd, doing your own thing no matter how unconventional and unpopular it maybe. I can always appreciate that.

Also comparatively speaking I don't think 28 is a huge number, as I think some Star Wars fans in 1977 have beaten the record of consequent viewing of the film in theatres. I don't remember reading how much, but it was definitely more than 30.

I"ve seen it twice, will try to catch it one more time if I can fit it in. I really need to just ditch work for a day.

'77 you also had to wait in long lines, Star Wars was only at one theater in town as an exclusive. So after a year I think I may have seen it ten times or so, it stayed in theaters a looong time unlike today. Of course waiting for a video release in a few months was unheard of. And convincing parents why on earth you "needed' to see the same movie again was a tough sell.

Right, that makes sense. The ones who saw it that highest number of times indeed had to do it across several months.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Not necessarily related to this particular discussion, but I thought I'd share my awesome new acquisition.
