If not for the length . . . .

I actually enjoyed this movie. More on that, and why later.
Why, oh why, do we need to have movies last over 2 hours?
Seriously? No really SERIOUSLY?
What does an extra 49 minutes convey to an audience that 2 hours could not with careful editing.
I think it's a ploy, to buy more $10 popcorn and $5 beverages, oh and to miss part of the film while you visit the bathroom without a pause button at your disposal. Only to want to rent the movie on DVD or otherwise see it again. I don't know anyone that cannot visit the bathroom at least once in almost three hours, but then again I am in the older demographics here.
Anyway, the movie was done well, actors did their jobs and I had to piss before half way through the thing. Just me you say? I think not.
Hollywood, get your heads out of your buttocks and limit films to under two hours.
My ONLY exception to this rule to date is Braveheart. Great movie, still too long.
Hollywood you listening?
