By the way, with the worldwide popularity of Multiplex 4, a lot of people are starting to end up with Marvel heroes-they'll have to go back to the old ones later, if they want to see them again.
Perhaps to satisfy Marvel fans, some theaters in the United States have recently launched a special Marvel Marathon package-buying tickets to watch 22 Marvel Universe movies in a row!
In these cinemas, fans can watch all the movies in Marvel Universe without interruption by buying one ticket.
From the initial "Iron Man" to the last "Reunion 4", 22 films, just buy a $125 movie ticket can be seen, the average cost of each film is only $5.6, not a good deal?
The problem is, the Marvel series of films, every time is not short. I really want to see it all at once. The time it takes is-59 hours!
Not only to have money, but also to have time, my dear. So, not a real fan, really can't hold on to it.
Even so, the package was surprisingly popular. Although only a few cinemas launched the package, more than 300 customers bought tickets for a sleepless Marvel trip.
In order to experience how this Marvel Marathon feels,
The journalist Brian VanHooker, of a Web site is going to sign up for the experience,
It turns out.
Let's feel the whole process first.
Before leaving, the man set a goal: never sleep in any of the movies and stay awake!
To achieve this, Brian specifically asked a "sleeping doctor" about ways to stay awake for a long time, to study the tricks of refreshment, and to be prepared to do so.
When he was ready, he set off.
Tuesday, 9: 57
Before the movie began, movie crew began to explain rules, such as "Don't sleep in the aisle", and then the movie started.
At first, "Iron Man 1" was released in 2008, and as the first leg of the marathon, the audience was very supportive, everyone was in a very excited state, and the wonderful part of the movie and the egg part were applauded from time to time. It's very interactive.
Brian took a peek at the audience in the cinema, 90% of whom were men. He also noticed an audience wearing a bully glove.
He sniffed the smell of the air: it didn't smell much. After all, to spend two days in the same room with hundreds of men, the smell can't be ignored.
It is estimated that at this time, these people also giggled at the advice of the staff: why do you want to go to bed? Is the iron man's armor not hard enough, or is the chili not hot enough?
Brian took the doctor's advice to find himself a target on the way to the movie, so he decided to count the number of times each movie's main character changed clothes.
After watching the play, he counted Downey Stark changing 38 times in the next movie.
Tuesday, 12: 20
The second part, "Invincible Hulk", is broadcast by the Hulk.
Maybe it was the guy wearing the bully gloves who did his best. This is the second movie, and the seats in the cinema have already been vacated by 1/3. I don't know what everyone is doing.
Brian began to eat because the doctor told him that carbohydrates would make him want to sleep, so he chose to take the nuts to eat. Although the movie theater won't let take-out food, the man decided to ignore the ban in order to succeed in the challenge-he brought in all the food for the next few days.
Finally, the Hulk finished-the Hulk changed his clothes 33 times in the movie, most of them because they were torn apart.
Brian looked around and found about four people asleep.
He gave a disdainful laugh.
Tuesday, 14: 30
< Iron Man 2 > starts with the same number of empty seats.
Tuesday, 18: 10
The Thor had already been sown, Brian was a little sleepy, just yawned, he panicked and began to drink coffee.
For this challenge, he deliberately began to drink coffee a week ago, until now. Because doctors say if drinking coffee all the time will increase tolerance, the effect of coffee will be reduced.
By the time the film was broadcast, someone in the cinema had already snored.
At the end of the movie, the number of people sleeping in the cinema was about six to eight. Brian plans to take a walk outside and come back because doctors suggest 15 minutes for each movie to absorb light, which will keep your head clear. Like going to the bathroom and staring at the lights for a few minutes or something.
Tuesday, 19: 50
One customer fell asleep under the movie screen-the staff said, "No sleeping in the aisle," so he slept under the screen, not exactly against the rules.
Tuesday, 2229
There was a certain interval for each movie. After watching a movie, some customers began to do push-ups in the hall. A girl also did yoga.
Brian, too, began to get sleepy, but braced himself for it.
By the time the Avengers were broadcast, they had been watching for 12 hours in a row, when the cinema was almost full of people.
Brian yawns more and more frequently, and two men snore in the aisle.
Wednesday, 01: 03
In the early hours of the morning, in the cinemas, each bench became their bed, with dozens of people upside down.
Others walk in cinemas like walking corpses, blurred in consciousness and bewildered in their eyes.
Brian walked into the bathroom and several men were still howling: "my butt, sitting without feeling."
Wednesday, 01: 15
When Iron Man 3 was broadcast, the seats in the studio were almost half empty, and Brian's consciousness began to blur, feeling that the film had become particularly long.
At the end of the film, 20 people fell, some sleeping in the lobby and others sleeping on the floor.
Fearing she couldn't make it, Brian took the doctor's advice and ran to the bathroom to stare at the lights for two minutes.
Wednesday, 0429
Time came at 4 a.m., when Thor 2 was broadcast. So far, half the seats in the studio are empty, and more than half of the rest are sleeping. The number of people snoring exceeded 10.
The other guy sitting next to Brian was very strong, and the two men fought hard, but then the other person finally couldn't help it and took a nap.
Brian couldn't help but doze off, but forced himself to wake up again.
After watching the movie, he walked out of the studio, which was already like a dead city, no one did push-ups or yoga, just a dozen sleepers, and the rest were "zombies" who were "walking corpses".
Miraculously, when Captain America 2 was broadcast, the sleepers woke up on time and then returned to their seats and looked up.
Wednesday, 10: 00
By this time, it was 24 hours before leave started watching the movie. I've been watching for 24 hours!
By this time, because of the frequent movement of people, the floor in the cinema had become thick.
Brian slept a little while off, but didn't miss repeat 2.
The series is the largest number of people since Iron Man began to broadcast, and it seems that people are still paying for the series. There were fewer people sleeping in the cinema, and only a few fell asleep.
But by this time, almost all of us had a pillow and a blanket in hand.
Wednesday, 16: 53
Half the time had passed, just after watching a movie, several people discussed the plot. I think he woke up and was full of energy.
At the beginning of Captain America 3, the studio was almost full, everyone woke up and came back one after another.
Some people are watching this movie when the drama shows the latest "Reunion 4" plot, there really is no escape from the drama dog bombing.
Wednesday, 21: 48
Dr. Strange has just been broadcast, Brian has been separated between awake and sleep, at least a dozen people sleep in the studio. He went out for a breath of fresh air and came back forcing himself to look at the light.
The problem is that whenever he can't help but decide to go to bed, his favorite movies will be broadcast, letting him get rid of the idea of sleep again and hang on to the end of the day.
The cinema had become so strange that one person fell asleep on the bench and another fell asleep under the bench.
Some couples took part in the event, and now they are quarrelling, and some girls are falling apart and complaining to their boyfriends that they "have been in this haunted place for N hours."
Doctors advise Brian that the only three factors that can pass the challenge are activity, caffeine and light. So as soon as Brian gets out of the middle of the movie, he moves.
Thursday, 0045
Brian had to step over a few people lying on the floor to get back to their seats.
At 3 a.m., at half-time, the hall was full of people, but few spoke. Brian walked around the street and came back to see.
After six o'clock in the morning, he finished another one, went out to buy a Starbucks and breakfast, and found that he had not had a good rest for a long time, and now his mind was a little unclear, and he didn't even look at the traffic lights across the street.
Time slowly passed, during the period, < Panther >, < Reunion 3 >, < ant 2 > and so on, the time also arrived at 3: 00 p. M. on the same day. Time is nearing the end.
During the period he went out to buy some food, eat while also activities to keep himself awake.
Thursday, 16: 32
"Captain Marvel" just finished, during the rest time, the media actually interviewed the audience and asked questions such as, "have you had a bath in the past few days" and so on?
One spectator said he had wipes his whole body with a wet tissue. I don't know if it's hard to admit to the fact that I didn't take a bath for a few days in front of the TV.
Thursday, 2015
finally!
We're done!
Fifty-nine hours, three days of challenge, finally finished.
Everyone slowly walked out of the cinema. At the moment of walking out of the cinema, some people cried, and many people were silent.
After watching the film, Brian.
Compare before and after watching the film.
Of course, a lot of people are happy because they end up with souvenirs: a poster and a collection of coins.
Brian's biggest lesson this time about the movie is that the ventilation at the cinema is really good. With so many people in the same room for days, he didn't smell anything.
He also admits that it is not desirable to go to a movie on a continuous deprive sleep like this, only as an experience and not as much as a try. He said he saw a bully-purple man when he got out of the cinema, but he was really purple.
Brian himself is not much better, on the way home, he finally can not help, in a toilet, poop while spitting.
I really used my life to watch a movie.
.......
Although this way of watching movies is not desirable,
But still a little envious.
Or maybe, just envy people can hide in the cinema for a few days not to go to work feeling.
