Short run time points to this being a mess.

Not according to the leaks claiming that the 2 hour test screening of MoM tested well.

A 126 minute runtime for an “event” movie like this would surprise me.

And yet the original Spider-Man comes in under 2hrs including credits.

I mean if anyone can make it work, it's Sam Raimi.

Sure, but superhero movies in general were shorter back then.

That was just telling a single Spider-Man story, didn't have all this stuff to juggle.

I’m not worried about the runtime. Just means it’s going to be a banger from the start.

 

I rue how many showtimes I’m going to have to count though. The Batman pulled 411 during my count. With this runtime, I can see MOM doing over 500.

Agreed.

A banger or rush land.

Tbh a lot of recent MCU movies could have shaved a few minutes, so cool with just around 2 hours of MoM.

[Joyous Legion]

I am a little surprised, but not concerned. Probably just indicates we hit the ground running and then get propulsive pacing like IW.

The runtime doesnt matter to me, since i have 100% trust in the cinema god that is called Sam Raimi.

 

Man is a legend and this movie is about to deliver.

Damn right.

A lot of MCU movies, even great ones get a little flabby in the middle IMO. So I’m fine with Dr Strange if it’s a fun quick ride 

[Joyous Legion]

I know I’m usually pushing for these things to be longer, but this one actually doesn’t seem as stuffed with characters. Should be a fun change of pace.

Yeah, but this is a movie about a ton of characters and not a solo Spidey movie. Big difference.

Actually, they said the movie is about Strange and Wanda at its core.

Ocean's Eleven is a movie about a ton of characters and is 1hr 56m. Just because there's a lot of characters and a "big" plot, doesn't mean that the storytelling and editing can't be economical.

The second trailer made it seem like a relatively simple story: Wanda chases Strange and Chavez through the multiverse. The cameos here are going to be just that - cameos.
