Ramiro Alanis,33, announced the news on his Twitter page with a photo of a certificate stating he broke the record for the most cinema productions attended of the same film. The tweet reads, “I’m Officially Amazing!!! A @GWR Title Holder for “The Most Cinema Productions Attended – Same Film” With 191 times seen #AvengersEndgame.” The record was previously held by YouTuber NemRaps, who watched the movie 103 times. Alanis said there were some struggles trying to break the record but according to Insider, the Marvel superfan’s love of cinema help him push through.
“Movies teach us deep messages about life, culture, and society. [Along with] helping people and those in need, which I’m very passionate about. The most difficult part about this attempt was giving up my social life with my family, the gym (I lost 16 pounds of muscle), and managing my work hours and screening times at the theaters.”

Alanis also said he purchased five tickers prior to the film’s opening weekend so he wouldn’t miss out on any major plot points. Then he started going to the movies every day and recorded his experiences online.
“I go twice on weekdays; Saturday and Sunday, four to five times, (which) is the most I can because of the movie being 3 hours and 2 minutes long, After seeing how ‘Endgame’ was shattering records and making history, I decided to do it too.”
He said the best way to achieve a world record is to be prepared mentally and physically.
