A marathon? Sounds more like a bender. A James Bond bender...
I will fist-fight anyone for the truth. |

QUOTE(Solex Agitator @ 27 September 2006 - 19:57)  A marathon? Sounds more like a bender. A James Bond bender... It sound gruelling to me! I think insanity would start to set in around, say, DAF. Most people have their favorite Bond flicks during the first 5 or 6, but once you start getting towards the AVTAKs, it'd be tough going. |

If I lived in England, I'd do it in a second. No problem.

Already did.
May - 2003 In the space of ten days, I got dumped and my last remaining parent (my father) passed away. Upon returning to LA, I stocked up on frozen foods, turned down the phone and went for it. Three days, two naps (paused whichever film I was in the middle of), one bottle of Glenlivet, a shower and 15 hours of sleep. Right as rain when I woke up. Not the best grieving process, but it worked. As for this... Commercials? Non-letterboxed? Edited for time and/or content? Pass.

It's like an extreme sport!!
And it reminds me of that episode of Alan Partridge when he wants to watch all the Bond movies over a Bank Holiday. --DaveBond21--
Ah, Mr Bond, perhaps you would like to make love to my mistress before I have you killed? Muhhahhh....ha ha ha ha....... |

Sounds like way too long for me. I've watched 'em all in order before, but this...!
 Still, will be interesting to see how it goes. ~ Nobody Knows Me Like You Know Me ~ 'People Look Up. Things Fall Down. And When It Rains, It Pours' Moving at the speed of life, we are bound to collide with each other ♦ D of the CBn Four ♦ ♦ ♦ Are You Ready To Go? ♦ ♦ ♦ |

Could be fun to give it a go...
But I wouldn t do it alone, could be fun if you re in a group of say, 3 or 4. Just get enough food and drinks in, and go for it... Unfortunately, no other bond fans live anywhere near me... alas... (hey, excuses were made to be used...  )

The most I've ever done is watch all four Brosnan films back to back.. took me about 8 hours and I couldn't watch another Bond film for a couple of months afterwards.. I can't even begin to imagine what this complete 20 film marathon will be like!!

I couldn't do it in 42 hours.
2 a day for 10 days in a row would be good fun. I could do that with relish, if I had the time off, perhaps fitting in documentries and commentaries as well. "He's my new anchor man!"

I think it would be cool to pick your favourite film from each of the Bond actors and do it like that. Otherwise I'd need to be in a dark room with no windows and/or anything I could hang myself with.

In college I might have dared this (however, there were a couple fewer movies at that time
), but not today.It would be interesting to see where I finally leaped off...when I started to feel my sanity going... where would it start? Confessed Fleming Purist (Tea Is Mud)"What a fool!

I'd love to do a marathon like that, but it would be 100% impossible to find anyone willing to endure it with me. Reckon I'd be sad to do it alone?

Don't know about that. I wonder if anybody could convince someone to do it with them. And man, I envy anybody who has the time!
