Movies that are too long.
>>
Django Unchained. I enjoyed it the first time I watched it but watching it again it really dragged on.

Movies that are too short.

You are a fucking pleb, OP. Never partake in the medium of film ever again.
>>
Satantango
Seven hours are too much, it doesn't matter what you want to show or say, just get an editor
>>
>>79360488

Nigga probably likes the butchered version.
>>
>>79360443

It's a Tarantino film, long films are sorta like his thing.
>>
>>79360488
>all good movies are the perfect length

Nah. Almost every movie ever made vould be longer or shorter.
>>
There is absolutely no fucking reason that a film should be longer than 90 min
>>
>>79360554

This is one of the dumbest posts I've ever read on this website.
>>
>>79360524
I don't recall any of his other films dragging as much as Django though.
>>
>>79360379
I remember an old movie about an upside down sunk ship with the crew on board, was like 6 hours.
>>
>>79360379
I've seen Santantango in its entirety in a single sitting and was entertained throughly. But can't bring myself to watch this. Cast and director are promising but this just looks like a 4 hours version mimicry of Godfather II. Should I see this

>>79360443
it's because he rewrote the ending and extended it. It was supposed to end after the first shootout, but he thought that was too obvious so he had Django captured by Australians.
>>
First hour cut could've saved us a lot of time.

Yes. It's nothing like the Godfather, it's barely a mafia movie. It uses the mob to tell a story about family, friendship, nostalgia, and the way they all crumble apart over time. It's one of the most beautiful and haunting films ever made. It's Leone's best and a masterpiece.
>>
>>79360719
I thought they were supposed to be South Africans.

Could of ended 45 minutes earlier.

Overrated cause scorsese
>>
>>79360713
your intuition is probably right. It's actually more like better version of part 3. It's enthralling if you're in the mood for it though and it's absurdly well edited. The music is also one of Morricone's best.
>>
>>79360443
I kept falling asleep after the cool German dude got killed
>>
>>79360867
Killing him off totally killed my interest in seeing a potential sequel.
>>
>>79360833
I dunno I thought this and Casino should have been longer, I always get hooked into his movies.

the scene was actually going to be longer. and shitter...

I agree but

if you are a native English-speaker, I sincerly hope that you and your entire family die a horrible, painful, slow death off cancer
>>
>>79360732
lol. no. the first hour was great. from the mill to the hunting to the pool scene to the wedding to the running the streets naked. i love films that flesh out characters this way not giving three shits to story structure (even though Dear Hunter really is traditionally structured). when the Nam scenes finally are thrust upon the viewer, it's shocking to see and have double the impact if the audience only knew the characters for a few brief moments.
>>
>>79361000
Nah it's too long. Boring and didn't further the story.
>>
>>79360379

Lawrence of Arabia
Gone With The Wind
Django Unchained
The Deer Hunter
2001
It's A Wonderful Life

Half of Scorsese's movies
Any Bollywood movie over two hours
Any Bela Tarr movie
>>
>>79361097
>boring
to each their own, i found it fascinating.

>didn't further the story
it sure did. it established the characters and their relationship with one another before the narrative threw them into hell. man,i love that film. the slow pace at the start, the rapid series of events in the middle, and the harrowing sequences at the end. truly one of the greatest films of all time.
>>
>>79361216
i'd only agree with Django being too long. then again, Django shouldn't even be anywhere near a list with these classics.
>>
>these many plebs
I don't even know why I bother coming here any more
>>
>>79361765

Django is the best movie on that list, though.
>>
any movie that's over 2 hours
it's all just a scam to sell extra expensive tickets for extra long movies to the goym

prove me wrong faggots, I dare you
>>
>>79362037
damn. bait so weak it hurts my feelings. step up your game, son.
>>
>>79362217
tickets are the same price at my local theater whether it's a 90 minute movie or a 3 hour epic, mate. is it different at your spot?
>>
>>79360732
The first half of The Deer Hunter is pure pleb filter
>>
>>79360732
Idiot
>>
Lawrence of Arabia is objectively way too long
>>
>>79360719
That was the worst part, everything after Schultz & Candie died was trash
>>
>>79360379
The Godfather

This thing was two fucking movies stapled together, neither of which was particularly good
>>
>>79362217
What the fuck? Where do you live?
>>
>>79360379
But every available cut of that is way too short??
>>
The Hobbit, duh.

>>79362848
I agree it's like watching a movie and it's sequel in one sitting

All I can say about Once Upon a Time In America is....

The first act was good, but the 2nd just kept going and going with nothing really worthwhile happening.

It's not bait. It's the truth.

fuck you buddy

Get rid of the monkeys and you have a pretty good flick.
>>
>>79366214

Not him. But he's right. It has terrible pacing. Some shots are far longer than they should be. Kubrick probably thought that since the things in the shots took a lot of resources to make it should also be in the movie for a long time too. It doesn't work and never has.
>>
This was kino but the middle did drag a bit.
>>
>>79363406
The series combined was around 5 hours too long.
