Mega Movie Marathon of the Best Picture Flicks

Hate natural light? Looking for a way to be completely lazy yet entertained this Saturday? Look no further than the movie theatre.

For the third consecutive year, AMC theatres is showing all five—count them, yes, FIVE—of "The Oscar Best Picture" nominees in a one-day movie marathon extravaganza. Couch potatoes jump for joy! (Or just keep sitting. A thumbs-up will do.)

Only one theatre in San Diego will be holding the marathon in San Diego this year, the AMC Mission Valley 20. For $30 (or $25 if you are an AMC MovieWatcher) guests can watch “Milk”, “The Reader”, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”, “Slumdog Millionaire”, and the history flick “Frost/Nixon” as well as receive unlimited refills of a large popcorn and a souvenir lanyard--which serves as the pass, allowing guests to leave and come back if they wish.
