    To be fair, sometimes I just want to watch the trilogy and I don’t want it to take an entire week…

          The parenthesis is not there to provide the cited source, but rather to specify what to do with the time that is given to us (watch the fellowship of the ring)

        Yes, it would probably take me 3 or 4 days to watch 12 hours of LOTR or anything else for that matter. I just can’t sit still that long.

          Sounds like you need some exercise equipment in front of your TV. This solution is definitely more practical than spreading a LOTR marathon over multiple days.

            That’s not a terrible idea, but I really don’t need an incentive to watch more tv. I already watch a LOT of it. My exercise time is when I go outside and enjoy nature. Well, as much nature as there is the 5 or so mile radius around my house anyways
