Why Are Movies So Goddamn Long?!

Posted 1 year, 2 months ago in SmellyBroom Blog.

I went to the cinema last week. Now normally you could expect to be at the cinema, watch an entire movie and be back home within around 2 hours. This is what I would consider to be normal.

These days however, it seems people are intent on making movies long as fuck. Last week I was at the cinema for a full 3 hours watching the monstrosity known as Transformers 2.

15 minutes of shitty adverts, 15 minutes of shitty trailers and then 2 and a half motherfucking hours of robots blowing shit up. Seriously, how can you fill 2 and a half hours of screen time with nothing but explosions!

Shockingly, this isn’t the longest as fuck movie I have ever seen. That prize goes to the groundbreakingly boring, 3 hour long, cinematic catastrophe known as Pirates of the Caribbean 3.

For those curious, my thoughts on Pirates 3 can be found here.

Unfortunately, there are no comments right now.

FACT: Commenting really does make you cool.
