As part of my 2009 Quest, I've been trying to chalk up as many films as possible to reach my goal. My current method is to watch as many new films as possible in a single day since the majority of my week is consumed by work. :-( I've been trying to break my record of 7 since Feb but don't have the time or energy to accomplish such a feat: Transporter 2 2/10 Nacho Libre 2/10 Casanova 3/10 Flushed Away 4/10 World Trade Center 4/10 The General's Daughter 5/10 Beneath the Planet of the Apes 4/10 The Weekend just gone I was able to watch 6 on Saturday, 5 on Sunday and 5 on Monday. Baring in mind, all these films were ones that I have never seen before so I didn't know what to expect. So I put it to you, how many films that you haven't seen before have you watched in a single day? Aswell how many films (seen/ unseen) have you watched from beginning to end in a day? The film has to be at least 1 hour and 20 minutes. Obviously there is a limit to how many feature length films you can watch in a 24hr period. So don't bother lying.

vanious Rank : 236	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 20 17:09 - most I can recall (not counting ones on TV marathons) would be...5. I've watched all 5 Rocky movies in a day, and on a seperate occasion watched 5 totally unrelated films in a day so they could get back to the library on time.

I woke at 7am, went to bed again at about 3am the next day. Call it what you like, but I got through them all in the space between waking up and going to sleep again.
Unholy Alliance Rank : 14	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 21 3:31 - I personally think its more of a feat between sleeping sessions. With my 7, I woke up at 10am and didn't sleep until 4.30am. While a waste of a day since none of the films were higher than 5 Stars, I just wanted to see how many I could do in one sitting. I literally had my George Foreman set up next to me. Bacon Sarnies galore!
PvtCaboose91 Rank : 17	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 21 4:27 - Ah okay. Well I'm happy that I got through 9 between sleeping sessions. I just watched them one after the other...I felt lazy.

When I had a bit of the flu I think I watched almost the entire Firefly series in one sitting. With movies I typically only watch them one or maybe two at a time. But I have had a few days where I watched three.

(I sat through all three seasons of Weeds in one weekend)... Otherwise, I can't watch more than three movies a day. I'm too restless to do more than that.
Prelude VIP Moderator Rank : 2	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 21 11:50 - I could never come close to that record. I'm too aggravated by a bad movie (i shut off Transporter 2 after 15 minutes, and Nacho Libre after 10) and once I finish watching a great movie, I have no desire to keep watching another one right away. So for me, I think 3 is about the limit I could ever achieved.

Voxy Moderator Rank : 9	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 22 8:33 - HP movies as art? That's certainly debatable.
Unholy Alliance Rank : 14	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 22 8:50 - In fact, its contraversial. When you were younger, did anyone just watch the same film over and over. Like several times in one day? I could never do that now but I would put on the Mask or Aliens or Hook and watched it about 6 times a day. I prefer a variety these days!
PvtCaboose91 Rank : 17	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 22 16:33 - When I was younger I'd frequently watch The Lion King. Sometimes 3-4 times a day.
Wolf-Paw Rank : 105	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 22 16:40 - I have watched maybe six movies twice or more ever, I don't like repeating things, it is sort of stupid in my opinion However, I read books several times, but thats off subject I think my max was probably 6 during this cool movie marathon
PvtCaboose91 Rank : 17	Posted : 4 months, 3 weeks ago at May 23 1:48 - I usually watch a movie several times. Opinions change over time. So I usually watch a movie again frequently. I've seen the film Bowfinger at least 50 times. It's probably the film I've seen the most.

Jessica Rank : 42	Posted : 3 months, 4 weeks ago at Jun 17 0:34 - I take home 10 new titles a week to watch for the next Tuesday's release date, and usually end up sitting through 6 or 7 on the Saturday before I have to have them back to the store. I know I have watched more in one day, but can't say for sure how many without doing it again! Today, it has just been three. I also like to sit through entire show seasons in the space of a day - or, during the time between times I am in bed!

az man Rank : 3904	Posted : 3 months, 1 week ago at Jul 1 18:44 - i think probally like three
GemLil Moderator Rank : 12	Posted : 3 months, 1 week ago at Jul 1 19:00 - AZ Man, will you stop posting next to nothing in all these threads!! I watched all of the Hornblower films in one day once, thats An Even Chance Examination for Lieutenant Frogs & Lobsters Duchess and the Devil Mutiny & Retribution They're 90 minutes each....I sat and watched them with my mate while we drank vokda and ate party rings.
junie Rank : 576	Posted : 3 months, 1 week ago at Jul 1 19:01 - i only watch one movie every like week well its mostly at random
chibiyusa Rank : 52	Posted : 3 months, 1 week ago at Jul 1 21:52 - What about Loyalty and Duty? Or the one with Gregory Peck? Don't be lying GemLil. I did watch the first four movies within a 24 hour span though...
GemLil Moderator Rank : 12	Posted : 3 months, 1 week ago at Jul 1 22:41 - Snap! I knew it wasnt all but I couldnt be bothered to say 'the first set that they issued in a box set, and not the Grego Peck one'...I thought nobody would notice! You win this round Chibi.
chibiyusa Rank : 52	Posted : 3 months, 1 week ago at Jul 2 0:27 - Score chibiyusa: 1 GemLil: 0 Hehehe I'm really not a movie marathoning person. I prefer to do tv shows or mini series and those sessions can last a very long fracking time. This week I spent 16+ hrs watching this single show in one sitting (and not even the whole thing just one season since that alone was 39 episodes) . Sure we took a three or four hour break to sleep but eh... It wasn't that good of a show in all honesty.

MovieMan Rank : 48	Posted : 3 months, 1 week ago at Jul 2 22:31 - I think the most I have watched is around 3 or 4.
Kristina Rank : 467	Posted : 2 months, 3 weeks ago at Jul 20 14:47 - I think I only watch two or three dvds in a day... as for regular movies, I've only seen two cinematic releases in one day....can't even remember what they were so they must've both sucked. I wish I could watch more than one a day at the cinema sometimes.
nimimerkillinen Rank : 123	Posted : 1 week, 4 days ago at Oct 1 17:09 - I think maybe nine, few times 8 and several times 7. Once I watched 25 movies in four days in Sodankylän elokuvafestivaali http://www.msfilmfestival.fi/fpage.php?lang=1 . Twice a year there is this horror, cult, fantasy, sci-fi film festival in Finland: Night Visions http://nightvisions.info/. It starts at 9pm (used to start at 11pm) and finishes usually in 1-3pm the next day. 7 films in a row. I've attended 12 times so far. I like movies.
