As soon as I heard Michael Caine, I thought "Alfred."Interstellar trailer:
I'm absolutely shocked. Shocked, I tell you. What is it about films nowadays that makes the director's feel they need to be so long? You'd think the studios would want shorter running times to make more money. It also reminds me of this quote.Sounds like Transformers: Pushing the Franchise Toward Extinction is absolutely terrible.
AND it's 2:45 long.![]()

The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.

But that's the problem, there's so much Shia LeBeouf. So very, very much.I don't get all the hate for the Transformers movies. I found them largely enjoyable, aside from Shia LeBeouf.
But Godzilla was very good, IMO. Wife and I saw it on our anniversary, and I like what they did with the character.
to me it feels like every big comedy movie is 2hrs and action movie are pushing 2 1/2.I feel like, on a whole, movies have gotten shorter again.
I don't mind it. I like when films have more freedom to develop characters and secondary plot lines. It doesn't always work but I like when they have the chance to do more.to me it feels like every big comedy movie is 2hrs and action movie are pushing 2 1/2.I feel like, on a whole, movies have gotten shorter again.
That is how long you have to sit in a theater for. Movies are not much different in length but the previews, ads, end credits (Marvel) keep you in your chair.to me it feels like every big comedy movie is 2hrs and action movie are pushing 2 1/2.I feel like, on a whole, movies have gotten shorter again.
nope, I am talking running time of the movie.Mario Kart said:That is how long you have to sit in a theater for.

no comedy should be much more than 90 mins imo, but quite a few suffer from Apatowitis and push the 2 hr mark.
tons of action movies pushing that 2 1/2 hour mark too: batmans, avengers, stupid hobbits, stupid transformers, pacific rim, etc, etc.
a lot of the Academy noms push that mark too.
would you get off my damn lawn already?http://www.randalolson.com/2014/01/25/movies-arent-actually-much-longer-than-they-used-to-be/Not much has changed.

I agree there arent as many 90 minute movies, but for awhile there every movie was pushing three hours.nope, I am talking running time of the movie.Mario Kart said:That is how long you have to sit in a theater for.

Won't say much about it but Transformers is horrible. 2/10 and that is generous.

This is a must see. The scope of it is impressive.I cannot wait to see this movie - comes out July 11.Boyhood by Richard Linklater
Currently a 9.0 on IMDB, 100% fresh on RT (4 votes) and 96/100 on metacritic (not one under 80).
Gone Girl or Whiplash tonight...tough decision.Some that look good are coming up in the next couple weeks:
Birdman
Whiplash
Fury
I think I will be seeing some movies on my week off of work.
Watched this last week. More of a zamedy (zombie drama comedy). Anyway, I liked it.
Watched Chef the other night. Very good.Of the movies listed I have seen Jack Ryan (Pretty good), Robocop (horrible), and Captain America (surprisingly good).
My two favortie movies of the year (so far) have been Chef and then maybe Belle.
Shame on you if that doesn't include you
Pretty good Honest Trailer for this one.Sounds like Transformers: Pushing the Franchise Toward Extinction is absolutely terrible.
AND it's 2:45 long.![]()

The Lobster
Director Yorgos Lanthimos will make his English-language debut with this unconventional love story set in a dystopian near future where single people are arrested and transferred to the Hotel. There, they are obligated to find a mate in 45 days. If they fail, they are transformed into an animal of their choosing and released into the woods. But what happens when a desperate man escapes from the Hotel, flees to the woods where the Loners live, and then falls in love?
