Are longer movies inherently better?
I was thinking of something Requiem mentioned to me the other day about Tombstone. It is a movie that is outside the norm on length. It also is a movie I very much enjoy.

Then I thought of other movies that were longer then most. LoTR, Scarface and The Assassination of Jesse James. All excellent well received movies.

90-120 mins isn't a long time to develop characters or plots. With a longer film it doesn't need to be as rushed and more focus can be put on individual characters and gives you a better experience.

Are there any movies you can think of over 2.5 hours that weren't at least average?

What are some others you have enjoyed where the credits were the starting pistol for the bathroom?
