Lord of the Rings Home Marathons? 120
Pepebuho asks: "Given that LOTR 3 is out, how many of you have staged Home LOTR Marathons? How long did they take? Was it fun or did everybody fell asleep by the middle of the Return of the King?"
Memory fault - where am I?

Need I tell you fellowship & towers were the extended editions?
He who hosted the marathon had access to a digital projector - thankfully he also had a spare, large white wall to watch everything on. Someone brought along the extended editions of fellowship and towers, and we were off. Well, after about two hours of Mario Kart: Double Dash, that is. To warm up the projector. Yeah.
In the end, sweets were consumed, chips were pulverised, bottles were emptied, LOTR was watched, fun was had. Something like 10am till about 1am all up.

It's like Star Wars. I don't quite understand the desire to watch it 500 times. I have watched four of the five StarWars movies in my life time and I know what happens in them. Why would I want to see them a second time? If I'm going to spend another 10 hours in front of the television, it's at least going to be with NEW movies.
Not to be a curmudgeon. I honestly have never understood people who claim to have seen a film 5, 10, 20, 50 times.

And memory from that day that sticks the longest was the massive boo-ing that occurred during the Mask 2 preview (which I haven't seen since)... turning towards the New Line Rep, and seeing them taking furious notes on a clipboard.
