more overly long movies *sighhhh*

the perfect length for a movie is 90 minutes

there are some exceptions though like the Lord of the Rings movies which you cant really cram into 90 minutes (it'd be interesting/funny if someone tried to tho)

i watched that new female Ghostbusters movie today tho and that shit most def did not need to be 116 minutes

2 hours is the minimum amount of time to be considered a movie

3 hours or longer is ideal

I prefer longer movies. More room to explore characters and ideas.

But a bad movie that's long is painful (like BvS)

90 minutes should be the average, though these days it's usually 2 hours. I think 2+hours is great for good movies.
