Queue the goosebumps, we're in for a hell of a ride.
That one is probably up there for me when it comes to total watch time (and we combine all 3 movies).
I've seen all 3 in the theatric release initially and after that I've watched through the extended editions 2 times. That's like 30h+ at least.
I rewatch The Hobbit trilogy and LOTR (both extended) every year with my wife. I would prefer just watching a fan cut of the hobbit as I don't think those are very good, but my wife likes them and a happy wife is a happy life.
So I think I have seen LOTR at least 8 or 9 times and hobbit maybe 4 times.
That still doesn't come close to a Swanlake cartoon movie that I obsessively watched 4 times a day when I was around 5 or 6. My parents insist I must have watched it well over 100 times.
Same, except I snatched up both the theater and extended the minute they came out and have watched through them all numerous times. As well as now watched a lot of reaction videos for them, which I guess counts too. It's fun to reexperience the first time through someone else's eyes.
Those are rookie numbers.
