Wow! Epic!

 

@baumer Having read the book I have to think the runtime is warranted. What about you?

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

It also leads me to believe that there will be more flashback scenes with the kids than we maybe thought. They might still be a huge part of this movie.

Oh I definitely think the kids will be at least in 25% of the film and that's probably low.

 

Even if they aren't, there's still tons of material with the adults 

[Valonqar]

Nice. I dig epic movies.

Let's gooooo

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.

[Rorschach]

 

Lmao 😂

[antovolk]

Runtime is indeed 165 minutes, with a longer director's cut definitely coming this time

Jesus that's long

[lorddemaxus]

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?

wow, that is long, very uncommon to see horror movie is this long 

[sabrecmc]

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]

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.

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. 

[The Horror of Lucas Films]

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.

That's a response to the demand of the movie, and dependent upon the theaters, not the studio.

I doubt there's going to be anything near the demand Endgame had during its opening weekend.

When the director talked about bringing your adult diapers I didn't know he meant about long pee break intervals

[baumer]

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.
