The Run Time Length Thread

[chaseter]

That's what I figure. To the people who know that I'm a big fan and counting down, I've been warning them that it sounds like it'll be mediocre quality when it's done, and probably infuriatingly frustrating for a purist like me. But I can still hope, and do my best to enjoy it one way or the other.

I guess we can all go to the bar afterward to drown our sorrows or go before to make it more fun

I intend to watch it twice in the opening day. First I'm going at midnight, and then I'm planning on going home either to party or to cry. Then during the day I'm going to go again, and if it was a bad experience in the first place I hope I'm so tired it'll be enjoyable no matter how the quality actually is.

If it's any help to you, when I saw the midnight showing of X-Men: The Last Stand, I disliked the movie quite a lot.

When I saw it the second time on opening day, it got tons better.

Does making snide comments like that justify your opinion more so to yourself

ha, ha, ha.

I see myself hitting up a bar after the movie to ---> CELEBRATE

can't wait for this to be over, been waiting too long to see how all that footage from the trailers and TV spots comes together

 

[Daredevil_2003]

Well, if you like a good action movie, but not neccessarily a faithful adaptation of the source, and characters galore thrown in there for little more than to appease the rabid fanboys and girls of said characters, I'm sure you'll be pleased.

 

[TNC9852002]

So we know nothing is going to be added from the leak plot wise and character wise. Some people still believe we may get alternate takes but I just can't believe that. This just makes me sad. The pacing and character development will more than likely not be fixed and those were my biggest complaints

:facepalm

Be careful. You're taking your own personal IDEALS and merging them with your expectations and you're carrying them along as facts and assumptions.

Probably close to 100 minutes, but damn, that's kinda weak.

The leak is actually 106m 50s to be exact, meaning they just approximated to 107 minutes.

Meaning the 14 minutes is indeed false, the workprint is the real deal (I don't have too big a problem with that, really), Fox lied, and a lot of cool scenes and lines from the trailers and TV spots aren't in the final version.

So they lied again, just like they did repeatedly with X3, and you still wonder why people dont like them Nell?

Who ever said it would be 14 minutes longer? All they said was there is 14 minutes of footage that isn't on the workprint. Isn't it possible that they have chopped and changed some stuff? Chopping out some of the more unnecessary material and replaced it with more important stuff?

The only thing that would be different are the takes. The plot will remain the same. The run time is nearly identical to the leak so not much if anything will be added to the film of the additional minutes that were promised. Everything that everyone has held out hope for has been wrong. This is the last little strand of hope and why should anyone believe it to be true

 

[Ace of Knaves]

When did they actually say there would be ADDITIONAL footage? I thought it was reported that there was like 14 minutes of unseen footage? I don't remember anyone saying that 14 minutes would be added on top.

10, 14, and 20 were all numbers promised to us of cut footage that would be added to the film. They didn't say footage that would replace existing footage so I think they said what they said to try and fool us into thinking it would be a longer film. A longer film to perhaps fix some of the bigger problems. They could exchange scenes of course but 14 minutes of exchanged footage is a lot. That is nearly 1/6 of the film...I just don't see it as plausible and after the lies of X3 and the lies from this film, I have no reason to trust what they say.

Lauren Shuller said this movie was way under 2 hours...that was correct. She also said that there were barely any deleted scenes...so I think that is probably also correct. 14 minutes of deleted scenes is a lot.

But who said that 10, 14 and 20 minutes would be added to the film? No official sources said that. If I remember correctly that was just a article on another movie website.

106 minutes isn't WAY UNDER 2 hours though is it? 106 minutes is closer to 2 hours than 1hour 30 minutes.

Rotham himself promised 10 minutes. A producer promised 20, and I think 14 was the speculation that was said by someone working on the film.

106 minutes with credits. Credits aren't the movie.

Yes but they didn't promise 10 or 20 minutes on top did they? They just said there was 10 or 20 minutes of unseen footage. That being added on top was all just speculation.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

106 minutes with credits. Credits aren't the movie.

Ahhh I see. Well credits would be no longer than 5 minutes would they? Plus you have mid credit scenes and possibly after credit scenes to think about.

I believe Rothman's quote was to the tune of 10 minutes of additional footage. I may be mistaken but I believe that is what he said. That is why so many here got excited because he promised 10 extra minutes.

Oh right, well I'm gonna need to find that article. Not saying I don't believe you but you don't sound to sure yourself.

I would say it is a 96-100 minute movie which to me is way under two hours. Most films don't go below 90 minutes anyways.

I honestly don't remember his or the others exact quotes so I am not going to pretend to know

 

[terry78]

There is a big difference between seeing a movie on your pc screen and going on the first weekend with a huge ass crowd and being in the thick of it.

He did say that but that was a lie. Tom Rothman tells some many of them that we just loose track of them. He said that the workprint was missing 10 minutes. The workprint is 107 minutes and the movie's runtime has now been officially annonced to be...107 minutes!
