Title: Are you unable to watch the DVD in full?

Are you unable to watch the DVD in full?

I don't know for you but for me, I was never able to watch it in full.  I just looked at some scenes in a loop and sobbed,  I had to stop to catch my breath and eventually go to bed or take a walk. 

Please post here only DVD watching experiences that were never completed because you couldn't stand it.

YES! Well last night when I first got it I went to watch it.. and I watched the opening scene when they first meet.. then I started to get all sad cuz I knew what would eventually come..  :'( .. so I just skipped to the 2nd tent scene, and the reunion scene and watched them over and over until I was filled with happiness and joy again.

Tomorrow I'll watch it in full though because I'm bringing my DVD over to a friends and we'll have a BBM DVD Party, It'll be my and 4 or 5 friends, all whom havent seen it yet and want too... i PRAY the like it.. or else. haha!! So i'll have no choice tomorrow, but last night.. just repeated those two scenes because they make me happy and fill my heart with joy!  ;D

I almost stopped watching it last night at the 2nd tent scene. Yes you are right, chameau.

This is off topic - is the 2nd tent scene longer in the DVD? I certainly felt so.

No it's the same length, if there's one scene I watched intensely 11 times in theater before it's that one.  Maybe it looks longer because we kept pressing the replay button of the DVD player remote control?  That's not a joke BTW.

Thanks, cham. I will take your words for it. So far I have not replayed any scene. I was too emotional to even press any button on the remote last night.

Yup, I know even today.  I played some scenes with the sub-titles but stayed away from the "emotional stuff".

I start to understand why I was unable to watch the DVD in full.  In theaters there is always something from the audience tall will catch you attention, that will even spoil your experience.  Being all alone with the movie, in your house is a total new dimension.
