Quick Answer
Pick a film category and a daily time budget, then the calculator filters a watchlist and tells you how many Oscar-era movies fit.
How to Calculate an Oscar Marathon
- Choose the film type and runtime filter.
- Enter how many minutes you can watch each day.
- Sort the watchlist by shortest or longest runtime.
- See how many films fit and how much time the marathon will take.
Formula
Total watch time = sum of selected runtimes
Days needed = total watch time / daily viewing time
Worked Examples
Example 1: 3 movies totaling 360 minutes with 180 minutes per day = 2 days.
Example 2: 5 movies totaling 515 minutes with 120 minutes per day = 4.3 days.
Example 3: 2 movies totaling 210 minutes with 90 minutes per day = 2.3 days.
