probably Tuesday [In reply to] Can't Post

Trust me. If we'd gotten anything official about it, it'd be all over the place. I'm guessing the press release, including a clip, will be arriving on Tuesday. I'd be very surprised if we didn't get anything this week.

30 minutes...maybe [In reply to] Can't Post

Around the time of the TE I thought PJ had said he planned to add 30 minutes of extra footage...the key words being "planned to". Hopefully we'll know the the final runtime sometime this week.

3 Hours? [In reply to] Can't Post

In the other thread about the EE of BOTFA playing in theaters there are links to websites where you can buy tickets for theatrical showings, and they list the runtime as 3 Hours. Wouldn't that put us at almost 40 minutes of new material...? I had gotten the feeling that most people were expecting about 30 minutes of new material, so if this is true I would say it is a pleasant surprise.

placeholder [In reply to] Can't Post

I have a feeling that number is just a placeholder until they know the actual running time.

Placeholder [In reply to] Can't Post

Ahhh, that does make sense. Oh well, until we hear otherwise I'll hold out hope that maybe it will actually be more than 30 minutes. I know it seems like splitting hairs at this point but with how rushed the film felt to me I really feel like 40 odd extra minutes is better than 30 odd.

It's possible... [In reply to] Can't Post

it could be 3 hours...that's only 36 minutes of extra footage. Six more minutes than the speculated 30. Hopefully we'll know soon. I swear the anticipation is become unbearable.Frown

between 164 minutes and 3 hours. [In reply to] Can't Post

The German film board is reporting a runtime of 164 minutes (rounded up). AMC gives a 3-hour running time for TH:BotFA. Maybe Germany required some cuts that accounts for the difference? Either that or the AMC listing is wrong.

Anything less than an additional 45 to 120 minutes is a disappointment. ;) [In reply to] Can't Post
