Are you the right person for the job?

In a "what would you do for a Klondike bar" sort of energy, a company is willing to pay $1,000 to a lucky winner. However, they aren't just going to pull your name out of a hat and fork over the cash. CableTV.com is searching for someone willing to sit down for a 40+ hours movie marathon leading up to the April 26 premiere of Avengers: Endgame. There are a few requirements they have for their ideal candidate: the person must be a superfan of Marvel films, they have to be personable and outgoing on social media, they must live-tweet their experience, and they have to tag the company in all of their updates.

According to Fox59 News, the films are broken down into three phases. The person chosen will receive $1,000, every Marvel film on Blu-Ray, and a "Marvel Marathon Survival Kit" that includes snacks, a Snuggie, Marvel gear, and a $100 gift card for GrubHub. 

Phase 1

“Iron Man” (2008)
“The Incredible Hulk” (2008)
“Iron Man 2” (2010)
“Thor” (2011)
“Captain America: The First Avenger” (2011)
“The Avengers” (2012)
Phase 2

“Iron Man 3” (2013)
“Thor: The Dark World” (2013)
“Captain America: The Winter Soldier” (2014)
“Guardians of the Galaxy” (2014)
“Avengers: Age of Ultron” (2015)
“Ant-Man” (2015)

Phase 3

“Captain America: Civil War” (2016)
“Doctor Strange” (2016)
“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” (2017)
“Spider-Man: Homecoming” (2017)
“Thor: Ragnarok” (2017)
“Black Panther” (2018)
“Avengers: Infinity War” (2018)
“Ant-Man and the Wasp” (2018)

Though the experience is promoted as a "back-to-back" viewing experience, CableTV.com writes on their website that they aren't really going to make someone binge-watch movies for 40 hours. "Should you win this contracted position on Team No Sleep, we’ll provide basic guidelines for tracking your Marvel journey," they wrote. "But, when it comes to sharing the experience via social media, we just want you to do you. And don’t worry… we will let you sleep. The chosen candidate will have three days to complete this epic binge."

Do you think you'd be up for the challenge?
