I agree completely. Yet I wonder how many hours of "Friends" I watched when I was married. (2 years worth). Could something like the LOTR be turned into a TV series so nothing would be left out? Would anyone watch an hour a week for a few years?
I rewatched my DVDs of the first (extended) and second (regular) volumes this past holiday weekend. I don't think I'd have "ass stamina" sit through 6 hours in a theatre, much less 87. God bless the pause button.
