For a few years now I have had the idea of watching a marathon of films that would seal my fate in the halls of dorkiness once and for all, but sadly somebody is beating me to the punch.
Empire magazine has announced it will have three writers attempt to watch all 20 “official” James Bond movies in one sitting during this weekend. The writers challenge other fans to watch along with them with a schedule they have put out, which include a few breaks for whatever (except sleep). They plan to do this during the upcoming weekend, and I just cannot take part in it due to the TOC messing with my sleep patterns the night before (maybe; depending on how good I do). The writers will spend the better part of two days watching 20 movies without sleep. They can eat and drink whatever they need in order to stay awake, just no sleeping is allowed.
Although I can’t fit this challenge into my schedule this weekend, I have decided to attempt it sometime soon. It may not happen this weekend, but it will happen before Nov. 17 (the date of the opening for "Casino Royale"). I will begin with "Dr. No" on a Saturday at 8 a.m. and the credits of "Die Another Day" should be rolling at approximately 2:02 a.m. on Monday morning if I take no breaks whatsoever.
I would like to see some of you join me in the challenge. I know nobody will stay up for all of them, but if you would like to take part in a few of the movies I will let you know what the schedule looks like. Wish me luck on my path to ultimate dorkdom.
