Death By Marvel
THIS
No. Just no. I did the Lord of the Rings trilogy when the third movie came out. The first two were the Extended Editions and the third was the theatrical release (as they hadn't put together the Extended Edition yet). It was definitely a numb-butt-a-thon, and that was just one full day. Of course they were the old uncomfortable seats, and seat technology has gotten worlds better, but...yeah, seriously. 59 hours? I really don't think so. Looks like the one theater I found a price on was $135.

Life is a waste of time
Time is a waste of life
So get wasted all of the time
And you'll have the time of your life

Re: Death By Marvel
I did that at some small theater in Boston. The third movie was supposed to be the Extended Edition, but there was a mixup. So it was only 11 hours instead of 12, or something like that. Anyway ... you're butt really does get numb.Cagliostro wrote:I did the Lord of the Rings trilogy when the third movie came out.

So: no.

I love this 




I love a marathon of movies that I love. And like Tom I would consider it.
One of my fave annual events is to watch all the LOTRs movies EXTENDED versions .. yes we cant do it in one sitting
Takes about a week of evenings 
I havent done a movie marathon at a cinema for more than a decade .. or more.
But yeah back to back in a cinema for 59hrs might even be too much for me
but that makes me sad.
How cool though. Ill by them and watch them on DVD once a year, by myself over a few weeks.
Sadly my hubby aint in to comic book super heros
