How do you feel about the trend of long movie runtimes

Honestly, I’m kind of torn. On one hand, I love getting lost in a good story for a while, but sometimes those long runtimes can drag on. If a movie’s really gripping, I’m all for it, but if it starts to feel like a chore, then it’s a bit much.

I’m all for it if the movie is entertaining! I mean, if I’m invested in the characters and the plot, I could sit there for hours. But if it feels like they’re just stretching things out to hit that two-and-a-half-hour mark, then it can get pretty annoying.

It really depends on the film. Some movies just need that extra time to develop the story and characters, while others could definitely benefit from a good edit. I guess I’m okay with long runtimes as long as they keep me engaged!
