THE LORD OF THE RINGS extended editions for sure!

Ever done the three movies marathon? It's a unique experience.  BounceGiggle

Done it with both LORD OF THE RINGS and THE HOBBIT sagas. I simply can't have enough of that.

Have you tried both trilogies back to back? I haven't yet myself.

We're talking about a whole day in the Middle Earth, only a madman would do that.

I'll maybe try it out when I get vacations.

In all seriousness, after a 10 hours movie spree I end up tired and with a pain in the back. I could do it with an amazing setup of perfect couch and giant TV, but sadly I don't have that... yet.

Oh and it has to be the extended editions.  BounceGiggle

FIDDLER ON THE ROOF (1971)  It was just on TCM; I didn't watch much... I listened to it!  I also own the soundtrack.  It's a sad painful story, and a wonderful musical.  And I ordinarily look askance at musicals, this one being an exception. 

Burgo mentioned OLIVER!  A movie I always enjoy... and it's a MUSICAL!   TeddyR (Makes me think of a subject...)

THE DEER HUNTER another sad long one; it's kind of magnificent.

The segment where the ghosts rise in the cemetery is my favorite part.

A good bad movie is like popcorn for the soul!

Not in one day, but I did watch the entire LOTR Extended Edition trilogy in about 3 days one Christmas break.
As for THE HOBBIT trilogy . . . meh.

I confess I have trouble watching long movies (in one sitting) not only because with multiple jobs and multiple children life keeps me busy, and not only because there are other things I'd rather do, but I am active by nature and staying sedentary for so long bothers me. Plus the older I get the more I feel the bite of life's finite nature, and the urge to do worthwhile things, like post here, shouts increasingly louder.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
