Not baumer but I also read the book and I think the runtime can definitely be warranted depending on what they take from the book and put in the movie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might still be a huge part of this movie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they aren't, there's still tons of material with the adults 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 It Chapter 1 was 135 minutes and that was half the book, 170 minutes seem excessive, I wouldn't be surprised if the running time for It 2 is closer to 150-160 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antovolk Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Runtime is indeed 165 minutes, with a longer director's cut definitely coming this time https://www.digitalspy.com/movies/a28526282/it-chapter-2-runtime-deleted-scenes/?utm_content=buffereaa11&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=maintwitterpost 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorddemaxus Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) Means that the movie will be very lore heavy. I'm guessing there will be like 30 minutes on the origins and history of pennywise. Maybe that deleted baby eating scene will be in here too? Edited July 27, 2019 by lorddemaxus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanic2187 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 wow, that is long, very uncommon to see horror movie is this long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabrecmc Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Wow. That’s a lot of movie. Hopefully that means a lot of flashbacks. The kids were the better part of the book for me, and I loved the first movie, so I’d definitely be up for that. Still...that’s a lot of movie.

Boxofficerules Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) Wouldn’t it be far too easy for Pennywise to scare people in this day and age? All he would need to do is transform into one of those monstrosity’s from Cats and his victims would be shitting themselves in pure terror.

lorddemaxus Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 WB needs to do what Disney did for Endgame and try to get 24 hour screenings of the film. I feel like the movie's box-office will be affected if they don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Horror of Lucas Films Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I'm worried with it's BO potential now. People aren't used to long Horror movies, and it isn't an EG situation where the fanbase is big enough to support the movie despite the long duration.

NamakFiskKa Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 When the director talked about bringing your adult diapers I didn't know he meant about long pee break intervals 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 With a run time being this long it also shows that the studio has incredible confidence in the movie. The actual novel is around 1,100 pages so it totally makes sense that the two chapters are basically about five hours long. I'm really excited to see it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
