Ramiro Alanis, from Florida, USA, has reclaimed his record for the most cinema productions attended of the same film, after watching Spider-Man: No Way Home 292 times between 16 December 2021 and 15 March 2022.
That’s a total runtime of 720 hours, or 30 days.(snip)
In order for each viewing to be successfully counted towards the record total, the movie must be watched independently of any other activity. That means Ramiro couldn’t look at his phone, take a nap, or even go to the bathroom whilst the movie was running.
This is something Ramiro learned the hard way when he first achieved the record, as 11 of his viewings were disqualified due to bathroom breaks being taken.
The film must be watched to completion each time, including all of the credits. Ramiro was already used to doing this though, as every Marvel fan knows not to leave before the post-credits scene.
In addition to every ticket stub being submitted as evidence, a statement was taken from a theatre attendant after each viewing to confirm that Ramiro was watching the film throughout.
Ramiro watched back-to-back screenings of Spider-Man: No Way Home for three months until movie theatres stopped showing it. For the first few weeks, he watched five screenings every day. That’s a total runtime of 12 hours 20 minutes!
Those late-night viewings were the hardest part of this record attempt for Ramiro, who said he experienced headaches after having already watched the movie four times during the day.
Additionally, juggling other priorities in life and “trying to stay put mentally with work, family and the attempt” was a big challenge he faced.

Wow, something interesting for his obit.
Must be a democrat. Only democrats can spend that much time doing things utterly unproductive
His parents must be so proud...
Sounds like he needs a psychologist to check him for obsessive compulsive disorder.
Disney/Marvel is pure unadulterated sh*t.
How can anyone watch the same film that many times when there are so many others to watch you haven’t seen? And how much money was wasted in this, say $25 a pop that is $7300. Waste of money.
My vote has equal weight with his. Hard to understand.
“Go away...’batin’!”
It’s not THAT good a movie. I wouldn’t go past 120 viewings ;P I was surprised when I hit the theater a couple weeks ago to see they were still showing it. Nothing stays that long anymore.
Probably, and not to Marisa Tomei, but Tom Holland…
What an idiot.
“Ramiro Alanis, from Florida...”
He might live here....I doubt he’s from here.
And apparently this isn’t the 1st time he’s done this:
“This is something Ramiro learned the hard way when he first achieved the record, as 11 of his viewings were disqualified due to bathroom breaks being taken”
SMH
Absolutely nobody cares. Since the original release of Star Wars no one gives a tinker’s damn about fools wasting their time.
Youth is wasted on the young.
