Last year I managed six movies:

~ The Giant Behemoth (1959)
~ The Monster That Challenged The World (1957)
~ It! The Terror From Beyond Space (1958)
~ I Married A Monster From Outer Space (1958)
~ The Alligator People (1959)
~ The Fly (1958)

It was tough and I needed breaks between the movies but yeah, it was still fun.

Back in the 80s we did a few Saturday all-night marathons lasting to Sunday morning. The most was seven movies in a row.

I have to force myself to get through three in a row. Most of the time I can watch one then I have to get up and do something else before I can sit down and watch another. Even then it is rare that I will watch more than two in a day. No way I could see myself watching seven films in a row.

A few years ago I would routinely watch 5 or 6 movies starting on a Saturday afternoon and going into the night.  Lately, my maximum has been 3 or 4.

3.  Any more and I get restless and they start to blur together.  I really don't watch more than 2 back to back anymore.

I'd be surprised if I can get through even one.  Even before kids, I'm one of those oddballs that stretch a movie out over a week.

Two normally but I can watch three if I'm in the right sort of mood.

In 1980's to 1990's 3 movies a night 3 to 4 times a week (we would rent movies from a video store and watch the back to back and then return the flicks the next day to rent somemore... )

1990's to1995ish, I've gotten selective and work/school made it diffictult at times to watch 1 or 2 movies in a week. Although there would be times (weekend) I would watch Godfather 1 and 2 back to back...  :buggedout:

1999 to 2003, Internet was a source of interesting movies to watch, although I was working (no life) and rpging on the weekends so I had time to watch movies (also slective) and watched about 2 to 3 movies during the weekend.

2003 and present (has beatuiful wife that enjoys bad movies)... although for the first 3 to 4 years we rented movies from blockbuster; view them from on demand and sometimes an old vhs tape so maybe 1 or 2 movies during the weekend... Currently we have Netflix so we are watching 1 movie day for almost 5 days a week.

If I had a whole day off to do nothing I could probably watch about 6-8.  But that seldom happens because I have things to do around the house.  Don't wanna but they gotta be done.

I've watched all of the Nightmare on Elm Streets (6 movies) in one day and all of the Planet of the Apes (5 movies) in one day and they didn't seem nearly as long as watching Scarface in one sitting.

I had a weekend a few years back where I watched something like 12 movies in 2 days, so roughly 6 a day.  I started Saturday afternoon at around 1 and that lasted until just after midnight, maybe 1 AM.  Then did some stuff around the house, got some sleep, and on Sunday resumed and watched a bunch more.  And, it was an odd mix of movies too, which included:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Ed Wood
Clerks
Gamera
Virgin High
No Holds Barred
and a few others.
