To go or not to go

We received a pamphlet in the mail from Bunbury Regional Entertainment Centre. After a break of several years, they are running an international film festival. We’d like to attend but we’d have to make some decisions. If we take the motor-home we would have our own accommodation and could get our own meals. But it’s holiday season and it might be hard to find somewhere to stay AND it’s a big vehicle to park in the city while we’re at the movies. If we stay within walking distance of the cinema, we’d have to buy all our meals. However we do it, we probably wouldn't want to be away too many days. There are twelve films. Each is shown at least twice with two to four showings each day. Over the course of two days, we could potentially watch eight films. I think another question to be considered is the number of films you could watch in a day without them all blurring. How about you? How many films do you think you could watch in a day and still stay sane? The photo is of some artwork at the Centre.

Maximum of three movies in a day for me.

I think that would probably be about the limit.

Three films in a day would be my limit... And I'd have to really be interested in them to watch that many at once. Whatever you choose, I hope you have a wonderful time.

I'm hoping we can come up with a way of watching most of the films without wearing ourselves out.

We haven't decided yet. We'll try to suss out which way could cost less.

I think that with breaks in between watching shows I would be able to watch 2 or 3. No more than 3 or they would blur and it would seem like 'work' to get them all watched. It should be an enjoyable time.

Three films would be my limit. I remember watching double features back in the 60s without a problem. Whatever you decide, I hope you have a good time. Have a great day.

The Bunbury International Film Festival sounds fantastic! I would limit myself to two films a day to fully enjoy each one without feeling overwhelmed. Your motor-home plan sounds practical but challenging during holiday season.

Watching too many films in a day wouldn't really be a good idea. We'll do a bit more thinking about it.

If I have all the time, I might have three or four movies.

I think I’d be good for about 2 movies per day.
