I spent New Year's Eve watching 21 hours of movie musicals. Guys, don't laugh, I'm serious.

These are the movies: "West Side Story" from 1961, "Chicago" from 2002, "Little Shop of Horrors" from 1982 (yes, I've seen the old version, too), "Moulin Rouge" from 2001 (during which I dozed off), "The King and I" from 1956 (during which I was in bed), "Annie" from 1981 (during which I was cooking bacon for five), "Music Man" from 1962, and "Hairspray" from 2007.

I didn't make my 24-hour movie marathon goal. In fact, if you don't count the four hours of sleep I had during a couple of those movies, I only made it 17 hours. By leaving early, I missed out on "Singin' in the Rain" and "The Sound of Music."

Since this movie marathon, my first ever, I've been concocting plans for my next movie marathon. Maybe one that is shorter and more related to "Star Wars," one that is focused on Adam Sandler knee-slappers, or a marathon for which every movie is required to be one that the big-name actor in it isn't proud of being in. 

Have you ever been to a movie marathon? Any suggestions on my next movie marathon?
