At the end of the Special Extended Edition of the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring DVD (that's a mouthfull) are fan club credits:
"Charter members of LOTR Official fan club"
Well, are there really nearly 9,000 "Charter Members" in this fan club? Did they all contribute to this movie?! I was blown away. Here I'm thinking "Oh yeah, I'll just watch this to see how many there are". Well it went on for 20 minutes!!!
Here's my math:
Start Time of Club Credits: 1:42:32
End Time of Club Credits: 2:02:08
There are approximatly 5 names per line, and 15 lines displayed in 10 seconds.
The total time expired for the club credits is 19 minutes, 36 seconds.
15 lines per ten seconds * 5 names per line = 75 names per ten seconds.
(19 * 60 + 36) overall seconds / 10 seconds = 117.6 ten second chunks.
117.6 ten second chunks * 75 names per ten seconds = 8,820 names!!!
INSANE!!! I'd hate to be the poor sap who had to type all that.
