SINGAPORE: Less than a dozen die-hard movie fans are left in an unusual challenge.

By sitting through a 100-hour movie marathon, which started on Thursday, they could walk away with S$10,000 cash and a trip to Hollywood.

Many went through some limbering exercises to stay awake.

And in order to add some sparkle, a celebrity element was added on Saturday as some familiar faces took part in an easier 24-hour movie marathon.

Some celebrities dropped out soon enough, but those still in the game stand a chance to win S$10,000 – with the money going to a favourite charity.
