I think people are mistaking my intentions when I say the movie should have been cut down. I love the movie as is, but to make it more accessible to the GA and by extension possibly more successful, I think they should have cut it down at least a little.
There were several scenes where the lingering shots could have been trimmed. Also some scenes could have been re-arranged. Like at the start when K notices the flower next to the tree, have him notice it on his way back to the car instead of him getting to the car, climbing in, having a conversation with his boss, registering the dead replication, etc.
I think this could have been done with a few scenes throughout and it would have trimmed the run time.
I do like the movie as is though.
See, the length of a movie doesn't put me off. The longer the better for me! Considering a movie ticket in the UK is like £11 (so nearly 15 dollars) I want to get my moneys worth. God remember the days of Lord of the Rings when it was over 3 hours long? That didn't put the GA off. Titanic for example... that was like 10 hours long and it was HUGE.
I don't think we'll ever have a definitive reason as to why people didn't go to see it... especially as EVERYONE I know DID see it (my brother saw it three times) and loved it. Massive head scratcher.
