I'm sure otherwise I'd be down around 24% and if we counted movies that I really sat through the entire thing, it would be more like 15%...

German universities should adopt that! (I just had the pleasure to hop from CS classes to business to economics to law and back again ;) ). Justin: Didn't you take a class like that too? Shame on you for only ending up with 30% then! :D Jean Pierre: Sometimes I was unsure about checking them, because they are such classics that I really couldn't remember if I consciously sat down and watched them as a whole. In fact, because of that I did *not* check "Ben Hur" and "Some like it hot", as they've been on TV about a million times as far as I remember, and while I often watched them very partly, I don't think I ever actually saw them in one piece.

But I only checked those movies I watched from the beginning to the end, not being interrupted by... falling asleep or doing those other things we teenagers used to do in movie theaters when we were still young :D Man, I really have to watch more films — I only scored 19.6%… But I only checked those movies I watched from the beginning to the end, not being interrupted by… falling asleep or doing those other things we teenagers used to do in movie theaters when we were still young :D
