Spiderman 3 runtime

I think it will be 2hr and 15-20 min. I can't see it being longer than that.
 
I think that 2 hours and 30 minutes is a pretty good run time for the film. The runtime won't scare people off (like it did with King Kong) and it won't feel shortened in any way. That way we can have fights fights fights and action action action galore without sacrificing dramatic moments of character like in the first 2.

agreed.
 
I'm going with 2 hours and 36 minutes. Why 36? I don't know, because the movie won't be exactly 2 1/2 hours long.

With all of the story that is going to be told and the wrapping of certain plotlines from the 1st two movies, it had better not be any shorter than the 2 1/2 hour mark or it risks achieving X3 status.
 
Theres no way it will exceed 2 hours and 25 min...but i dont see how it could be under 2 hours and 10 minutes...so i guess my money is somewhere between the two.
 
I think we can all agree on 2hrs 30mins.
 
Now, watch this movie end up being 2 hours! ;)
 
No more then 2hrs 45min.

We can hope, but ultimately i think we will be surprised by how short it is IMO. And i mean the movie won't be short..but I would not be suprised if we got a 2 hour and 10 minute running time...in theory the story could be told in that time. I would personally prefer a 2 hour and a half fully fleshed movie. They need more character scenes to balance out the added action.
 
Well, Both Raimi and Dunst have mentioned that "it's a long movie" in interviews. I dont know if they were referring to the length of the shoot or the runtime, but I happen to think those two may coincide anyway.

Guys I just realized that Spiderman 3 has to be well over three hours long. Just please think about it Peter will battle his best friend, finds out Flint Marko was the man who killed his Uncle, fights Sandman, gets the symbiote on him, fights Harry agian with black suit, fights Sandman agian with black suit, has to go on a date and propose, meets Gwen, meets Eddie, fights Venom, go to Harry for help and the final battle. Another reason why i think SP3 will be over3 hours long is that when Peter meets Eddie and then all the sudden we see Eddie in Church asking for God to kill Peter Parker. You dont meet someone than next day you ask God to kill that person. you know what I mean. So hopefully we will find out why Eddie hates Peter so much.
no, its not gonna be over 3 hours long! ur crazy man:oldrazz:

yeah, but the length of the movie will defenitley not go over three hours. but i think 2 hours and 30 minutes because of the new characers, villians, the symbiote, and the story which sounds about the right time.
 
I say 2hrs./15mins. tops, a minute longer than this time and I'll be shocked.
 
How long was Superman Returns? I read some pro. criticisms (online newspaper reviews) that complained it was too long for its own good. Seeing how Spidey is a Superhero also, maybe Supes' runtime would be a good reference for max. running time. I think it was like 2 hours 40 mins or something. Spidey shouldn't go over 2 hours 30, and if it got up that high I think we could expect this would be a 'final curtain' for the series cast and crew before someone else took the helm.

Yet Hulk was pretty long too, but Ang Lee typically makes longer movies. Maybe 2 hours 20 minutes would be a nice even runtime for spidey. I like the sound of that. 2 hours, 20 minutes. Solid, meaty movie for a superhero film, enough to satisfy most fanboys like us, but not long enough to make the average joe grumble.

With all the stuff crammed into this movie, 2 hrs and 30 min sounds just about right.

2 hours and 30 minutes sounds exactly right and that is how long it will probably be.
 
With so much going on, this NEEDS to be the longest Spidey flick. I'd wager this'll clock in at +/- 150 minutes.
 
Probably around Superman Return's runtime, 2 hours 34 min. The plot sounds top heavy with 3 villains, the introduction of the Stacys, and the symbiote storyline.
 
Hopefully, SM3 will be as long as it needs to be to develop its characters and tell its story, and not one minute more. Superman Returns should NOT be used as a comparative point, because that movie was overbloated because it had nothing new to say. Avoid pulling a Peter Jackson(unnecessarily long King Kong and LOTR: ROTK).
