Discuss: Are Movies Too Long?

By  | 

The Movie Geeks were standing in the lobby of the Tivoli Theater this past Sunday night waiting to go in to see ‘The Wrestler’ when the topic of movie length came up. Â  More specifically, a couple of us were railing on the 152-minute running time of ‘The Dark Knight’, and a couple of us had no problem with the film being that long.

Keep in mind, the average length of a Bollywood film is 14 days. Â  I just made that up. Â  It’s more like 3 hours, but all that singing and dancing can get pretty monotonous.

So, what do you think? Â  Are movies getting too long? Â  Should studios force their directors to cut more out of their films? Â  What’s the perfect length for a film? Â  Would you rather a film be too long or too short?

Let us know! Â  Comment below!
