    I'd be fine for as long as there was food, water and a bathroom.

    Like, I think it could be fun to watch the silent movies, but I'd need to take care of my basic necessities and stuff.

    The only necessities that the powers that be organizing the event had no concern for was the sleeping arrangements of the prisoners here.

    Most of the silent movies have music that accompanies it, before that even life music was posible some time... the english word is ~movie theater.
    Edit: So there was room for a band in old theater as the movie was on ...

    This is true. For a long time, silent movies would have something like a record player that plays the music. Thus, the music was separate from the film. The Fox film "Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans" was 1 of the first to employ sound-on-film.

    Either standing as in being on your feet (literal) or the last person who is alive or that has not passed out (figuratively standing).

    Are we all trapped together or is it one room per person?

    It's one big main room (at least 100,000 st. ft. for just that room). There are at least 300 bathroom stalls in 1 boys' bathroom and at leas 300 bathroom stalls in one girls' bathroom.

    We aren't supposed to sleep during the 24h marathon though? Otherwise it wouldn't be a 24h marathon~

    In that case, it'd be daijoubu~

    Well can not bet that i would stand 24h, but just watching is fine bet there are some films way over that time.
    If it would only be silent film as category there are way to many "good" films most of films of Charlie Chaplin, Benny Hill or Mr Bean is more less in that category...or from some historical films like Battleship Potemkin...

    The stipulation is that these are Fox-distributed and/or produced movies. Some of the following movies had both a silent version and a talkie version: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Fox_Film_films. The last silent Fox film or film to have a silent version was "One the Level", which was released on 5/18/1930.

    Oh, and the people who are initiating the event (the MC as it were) would be former Fox Empire overlord Rupert Murdoch and former Disney Empire boss Bob Iger. It would be to shame them for ending the Fox Empire as we know it. You know, a punishment of sorts.

    The opening ceremonies event would be live-streamed on Disney+ to show those fine with the Disney-Fox merger, namely the MCU fan boys/girls, that the merger was a mistake in ending a storied movie empire as we knew it/them. Just selling the Fox Marvel rights back to Disney would have sufficed.

    I don't think every member can fit in a room lol. Maybe socialize? If we communicate with each other maybe we won't go crazy

    Well, that is the wonders of a hypothetical and/or imaginary scenario (the packed into a big room bit). The socialization is allowed but my prev. points still stand.
