Time

Wicked is 2:40. Movies you could literally watch twice in that time:

Gustav

isn't also two parts? are did they decide to make it into one movie?

It's still just the first act of the musical.

Ted Lasso

2:50pm

yep, that is what I thought. No way I watching a 2:40 minute first act. That

Good gravy, I didn't know it was only Part 1

I’m out. The musical isn’t nearly that long. I think the whole musical was around 2:30-3:00 hours long.

Heard they pulled some parts from the Silmarillion and the Appendices.

I’ve never seen the show on Broadway. No interest. I know very little about it. I’m being dragged to this movie anyway

I would tell your wife that you would rather go see the musical than the movie

BYUheaven

I expect it to suck, even though I like the musical. well, I like the first act of the musical, it drags in the second

Hard to argue that a movie is too long when you haven't seen it.

ebv

2:53pm

Yes, many of those should have been trimmed down

Gustav

3:15pm

I’ll argue that the first act should not be made into a 2:40 movie.

BYUheaven

3:17pm

Maybe, but you haven't even seen it yet.

I actually really liked it when I saw it on Broadway. 3 hours for act one is ridiculous. I don't know if I'll see it.

Movie producers - you chose this format. It’s your job to keep it to 2 hrs max!

It's a very well done show promoting moral relativism

We just saw Wicked the play at the Paramount in downtown Seattle last night. Loved it!

I’ve seen it 3 times and it never gets old. We are going to go see the movie

No idea about Fast Times. My recollection was the movie was about 10 seconds.

Ugh. Maybe I can convince my daughter to skip it.

For a stupid fan fiction story with a catchy tune? LOLOL No thanks!

The original Little mermaid is 1 hour and 22 minutes

I watched the latest mission impossible a few weeks ago. It was long too

That was too long. The dialogue was tiresome.
