So has been MCU since Endgame.

Anyways less runtime is good in a way that trailers have been very annoying.

 

The less of that, the better.

Don't judge movie quality by trailer whether you like it or not. Wait for movie to come out and wait for critics & audience reaction.

Whether the movie is 90 minutes or 180 minutes, in the end the Sun still explodes in 4 billion years.

This movie being just under two hours wouldn’t be a big deal, but less than 100 minutes? That seems too short.

Like Morbius? 1 hour 44 min. 

have said this before, I will say this again, and I will forever say this: Singin in the Rain is an 1 hr and 42 minutes. It’s the most perfect movie.  Ever.

 

It’s not about length, it’s about character and PACING. If they can get it done in an hour and 30, then good for them.

Also, I haven't seen Morbius but from what everyone says, it's INCREDIBLY clear that film was significantly meddled with in an attempt to solve the film's  poor reception/execution.

Studios would clearly rather try and salvage/sell a new slimed down bad 100 minute movie than a bad 135 minute movie they already "know" is bad.

When a marvel movie is short, they generally pointing to a less-satisfying quality. 

 

Thor 2 (112 min), Antman 3 (124min), thor 4 (118min) , iron man 2 (124min) 

half of the films you cited as "short" are over 2 hours and the other 2 are nearly 2 hours, how on earth are these short?

“for women-led superhero films, as long as the quality stays up, that’s what’s gonna keep the audience coming back.”

 

Nia seems very confident about The Marvels quality

I didn't, i said some of the stuff shown in trailer was annoying.

 

So less of that thing, the better

Look at huge plus. it can have gazillion shows without dominating all the screens 🙂 its going to have 6 shows a day per screen with this run time.

Yeah, that's a very concerning runtime. 90 minutes for an ensemble blockbuster is usually a sign of a troubled production and massive cuts in editing. Let's just hope we aren't reading a Hollywood Reporter exposee about it by the time it hits theaters.

Does the number of shows per screen make any difference? In the end, the box office will depend on how many people are interested in watching the movie, no?

But they are among the shortest of MCU.

eternals is the third longest film in the mcu

If this is only 1 hour 37 min long, its budget might be less than 150m. It's current budget as per Disney official filing is $103m

1 million for every minute. If this works critically and commercially then good for the director else she will be lambasted and become persona non grata among fanboy community. This honestly needed a better director. Her candy man remake wasn't all that interesting.
