Fan sets record for watching Spider-Man: No Homecoming 292 times (you didn’t read that wrong!)

You, who thought you were a big fan of the teioso, I bet you didn’t get close to this guy: Ramiro Alanis went to the cinema 292 times only to watch the latest movie in the Spider-Man: No Return Home saga. As a reward for his cinephile dedication, he entered the record books.

The personal trainer, it is worth saying, is an old acquaintance of the Guinness Book. As if Tom Holland’s overdose wasn’t enough, Alanis had won the same record for “who watched the most film production of the same movie” in 2019, when she held the post for having watched Avengers: Endgame 191 times.

Unfortunately, he ended up losing the award in 2021 to a big viewer of the French feature Kaamelott: The First Chapter, Arnaud Klein. Now, with Spider-Man, Alanis has “taken the crown” back.

In all, he accounted for 720 hours of Spider-Man, or 30 days of Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire.

how the record happened

Alanis hit theaters between December 16, 2021 and March 15, 2022. In between, he marathoned five shows a day during the first few weeks of his journey, according to Guinness.

For each of the sessions to count as a viewing of the entire movie, Alanis couldn’t take bathroom breaks, or engage in side activities like peeking at her cell phone or even napping.

In addition, it was also necessary for him to watch each showing until the credits rolled across the screen — which, for Marvel fans, is not a problem, because everyone knows what happens in the movie credits, right?

And yes, every session also required a theater attendant to certify that Alanis was watching the film the entire time, with no detours, as well as presenting the theater left-handers for each of the screenings for additional physical evidence.

For the curious: yes, he also got it wrong. Eleven of the views were downgraded because Mother Nature’s call was stronger. That is, Alanis, in fact, came to watch the film at least 300 times.

In addition to immortalizing (at least for now) his name from the world record book, Alanis also got headaches, a loss of about $3,400 in tickets and he could even replace any of the characters if they needed to. someone for line reading, because he sure has memorized all the dialogue!

According to him, maintaining his position in the record books was a matter of honoring his grandmother Juany, who passed away in 2019, before she could see Alanis win the Guinness title. “She was my number one fan and I want to remain the record holder,” she said.

And he holds the position:

“If someone tries to break my record again, I want them to think twice before trying”

Now, if you ask which Spider-Man was the best for him, Alanis is #TeamAndrewGarfield and would choose, for sure, “Andrew Garfield and his arc of redemption,” he told Guinness.
