One sitting

[HanaBi]

I just wonder though, when people watch all three b2b do you do it without pressing the FastForward button your remote AT ALL? Much as I love the films there are quite a few scenes that have little or no interest for me and thus I reach for the FF button, even though I can say I watched all three consecutively, even though technically I cheated.

So has anyone actually watched all 3 films without the FF option?

My niece, sister and I watched the first two on christmas day, the day before the last one came out, was a good idea actually. I have also watched the three over a weekend, but not straight after each other.
I know our local cinema did the three in a row once, started late and finished about 9 in the morning, novel idea, with just a short break in between each. A friend went and they looked rather the worse for wear the following day.

Yes, have in fact been doing so for quite some time and similarly had marathon sessions of the six Starwars episodes too. But I admit though it's been about three to four months since I did something like this.

Yes, that is how I watch them. Now I do have my favorite parts, but I still want to see the entire movie when I'm watching them back to back. Now I do use the FF button if I'm just watching one of the movies by itself.

Even though I've seen the extended-films back-2-back in one session, I've never attempted to watch all of the extras in addition to the films. I can't recall how many discs there are per DVD package but if its 4, then that 12 in total, and God knows how many additional hours of extras as well as the 12 hours of film. But its something I'm contemplating doing one day!
