I recently watched the entire extended trilogy in one day at the cinema. There were only two pauses. One 15 minutes long after the first movie and one 30 minutes long after the second movie in time for dinner.
This is how I saw part 3 in the cinema at opening. The cinema had part 1 and 2 extended on the day leading into launch and just after midnight we watched part 3.

Do it in the winter.
Watch 12 hours of movies, have 8 hours of sleep, go outside for the 4 hours of sun.
We do exactly this. Marathon day around Christmas time - bonus points because you have more free time for a movie day and there is plenty of food already!
Currently living in Texas, I’m one of those people

In my country there is a cinema chain that has a LoTR marathon each year with all the extended editions. There are surprisingly many people that come.
Same here, just bought tickets!
So I have done a weekend of the Saturday being all three extended Hobbit films and the Sunday being all three extended lotr films
Needless to say, I’ve got zero desire to ever do the first half again
The 2nd day was fun in spite of the first though
I’m not even a fan and I did it
Not me planning a watch party where I cook and bake themed foods all day because I can quote these movies in my sleep
Done it multiple times. Git gud
You watch people walking for 12 hours. Congrats.
Hej, they ride sometimes. They even go by boat for a bit!
Maybe you could too, if you weren’t so hasty.
EVEN THE FUCKING TREES WALKED IN THOSE MOVIES
And were better for it.
I wonder if this was a pub which had them playing on loop or something.
This is the only way I can watch them. I don’t want to waste several days watching a film a night. Give me the whole epic from start to finish in one sitting! My ADHD hyperfocus will help me power through it, as long as I have enough drinks and food prepared.
Add in The Hobbit: The Tolkien Edit at the beginning and you have a pretty full day. The Tolkien Edit is a fan edit that removes all the fluff that’s not in the books and combines the Hobbit trilogy into one 4-hr film.
I’m guessing the sources of the three movies were the extended edition?
What other editions are there? Can’t think of any…
There is M4’s Book edit and I quite enjoy that one.
I tried Tolkien edit but it didn’t sit right. Can’t recommend Maple Films edit enough though! Felt the flow was much better.
Still too much Alfrid though.
Woah, they made a Hobbit movie! I hope they kept it to one movie, because there’s really not enough content to stretch to three and it’d turn out horribly. As long as they aren’t really dumb there’s no way it could possible be bad.
… Is there any other way to watch them?
