When was the last time you watched a movie, non-stop, from start to finish?

Currently, I have been hanging onto the movie 300 for two weeks, just trying to find the time to get past the introductory credits before I have to leave and do something else.
I can't remember the last time that I watched a movie from start to finish. I think it's been at least three years or more. Most times, I'll get fifteen minutes into a movie and have to take care of some little kid emergency or fix a sandwich for someone who can't operate the microwave.
Life is that way I guess. Before my little kid came along, I spent hours watching movies in my spare time. I loved movies. Now I'm lucky if I can watch a few minutes of a movie at a time. But, that is what the pause button is for right? I can always come back later and watch some more later when noone needs me.
So, when was the last time you watched a movie, non-stop from start to finish? Are you currently in the middle of a movie that you wish you could finish?

I live by myself, so I usually don't have any interruptions. I watch a movie almost every day, and sometimes two or three, if I'm not in the mood to do anything else. That may sound like a lot of movies, but I hardly ever watch TV, so I have plenty of time for other things.

Before my little kid came along, we did the same thing in our house. There was plenty of time for movies as we didn't much like the TV shows. It's a different story now.

My husband and I try to watch a movie after my son goes to bed at least once a month. It's the closest thing we get to a date night! lol
I think we watched one two weeks ago. Usually we just watch one we already have, but occasionally we will rent one. Usually we just agree that if we think we will really like it, we go ahead and buy it. That way we can watch it whenever we want. And we can watch it more than once.
I think the last movie we bought was "Night at the Museum." My son watched it the day after we did, and he loves it. We've watched it probably 20 times since then. lol

My daughter is the same way. When she finds a movie she likes, she will insist that we play it all day every day. She doesn't watch it really, just has it on as background noise to her day. I think it's soothing to her to have something familiar on the television. And, I don't mind as long as it's a quality movie. Have not see Night at the Museum. May give that a try. Thanks!

I actually watched a movie last night for the first time in, wow almost a month.
I watched "Chasing Christmas" with Tom Arnold. I'd never heard of it before but it came in the mail from Blockbuster, so I watched it.
It was an okay flick. The guy who played "Past", was funny as heck.

I do not have that problem. I only don’t watch the whole movie- if by chance I fall asleep in the middle. We watch movies at night usually- The 3 of us- I may get up in the middle and make popcorn or grab a drink- but I still watch the rest.
Don’t worry your daughter will soon be old enough and you’ll be able to watch the entire movie also.

I stayed up unil 8.30 am or thereabouts and then dosed off on the couch, then woken up by my son not so long after LOL Boy was I in a not so good mood the next day and very very tired LOL

Yesterday.
I don't have anything but a telephone to disturb me from watching movies, and I can always just not answer that. I'm a huge movie nerd and I love my movie time. I watch a movie almost daily! I don't know how I'd survive if I had a child or a husband who couldn't leave me be for 2 hours to watch a movie.
Maybe for that...I'll stay single forever :p

The last time was when I accompanied my clients on a movie night. I cannot tell you what I saw, but I remember that I enjoyed it more than I had thought I would. I do not remember the last time before that. I tend to fall asleep in movies, either at home or at the theater.

Friday night. My sister and I saw the 1957 version of 3:10 to Yuma.She hadn't seen it and we got to see it from beginning to end.It was great. But it has been a trait of mine coming in the middle of a movie the first time and seeing it from the beginning the second time.I have many favorites that I saw from the beginning first. Thank g-d for movies on VHS and DVD.

I haven't been to a cinema to watch movies for more than ten years. I usually watch movies online at home. It is more convenient at home. But it was also a long time ago, maybe last year. Now I seldom watch movies online since I love to spend time on mylot. lol
