Tomorrow (likely today if you\u2019re reading this), I\u2019ll be laying down to get some sleep at 5PM so I can wake up at 10PM and drive 2 hours south to Boston. After a hearty Denny\u2019s Lumberjack meal, I\u2019ll go to a movie theatre at 1AM, sit down for the first 3 films (please don\u2019t make me) and then we\u2019ll do Episodes 4, 5 and 6 concluding with the 3D version of Force Awakens at 10PM. Running Time, 16 hours and 40 minutes with a few breaks thrown in.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not the first time I\u2019ve done a movie marathon at a cinema. The most recent was the SAW trilogy and 7 of those movies back to back made my mind turn into mush. More importantly, there was no re-entry allowed so I had to survive for a full 15 hours on Popcorn, Nachos, Hot Dogs and Cola. It was brutal.I can\u2019t find anything on the AMC website about re-entry but I really hope they\u2019ll let us go out for Lunch and Dinner but we\u2019ll see!<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the link to buy tickets if you can find any as I\u2019m certain the Boston showing is sold out &#8211;\u00a0https:\/\/www.amctheatres.com\/movies\/star-wars-marathon\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n<em>The STAR WARS Marathon Event is the ultimate fan experience. All seven movies. One Epic Journey. Guests will see each of the six previously released STAR WARS episodes in digital 2D beginning with THE PHANTOM MENACE and concluding with the opening of STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS in 3D!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Running Time 16 hr 40 min Release Date December 17, 2015<\/em>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To get me in the mood, I\u2019m playing the <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/station\/star-wars\/idra.1063389070\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Star Wars (aka John Williams love fest) on iTunes Radio<\/a> all day at work and on the drive down. So excited to see these all back to back. I was unlucky enough to see the 2nd trilogy in theatres but I missed the first trilogy due to the fact I was born in 1986 and even though tomorrow\u2019s showing of the original trilogy will be George Lucas\u2019 re-mastered \/ altered version, it\u2019ll be awesome to see it on a big-screen for the first time ever. That\u2019s the main draw for me\u2026that and the premiere of the new film. Final draw might be the fact I\u2019ll be in a theatre with a lot of Star Wars fans that booooooo Anakin Skywalker every time he whines about Yoda and cries himself to sleep. That might actually be fun to do in a theatre.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Thinking back, there were people booing during Attack of the Clones quite a bit when i saw that in theatres. The hate is real with that character. If I have the time between movies, I might maintain a live-blog tomorrow between each film of my thoughts to pass the time. I haven\u2019t seen the re-mastered versions in a few years and always watch <a href=\"http:\/\/originaltrilogy.com\/topic\/Harmys-STAR-WARS-Despecialized-Edition-HD-V25-MKV-IS-OUT-NOW\/id\/12713\/page\/565#884975\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Harmy\u2019s Despecialized Editions<\/a> when I do my yearly Star Wars Marathon @ home. I\u2019m curious how angering the altered versions are now but, in celebration of the new film, I found taking a full day off work to watch Star Wars was a good idea :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The day is finally upon us.
