The last time I remember seeing a movie with an overture and an intermission in the theater was Gods & Generals on opening night. God, that was possibly the worst decision I've ever made.

When I was working in Baltimore, my company's IT director came up from Atlanta to do some equipment upgrades, including putting a poo poo-ton of more RAM in my work laptop. I hadn't shut it off in months and we literally waited for almost two hours before the updates finished.

Generally not anything I need to focus on, mostly stuff like old MST3K episodes. Also, I seed stuff I download off BitTorrent, and leaving my computer on while I'm asleep/not home is the best way to manage this without making my internet run slow as hell.

Django isn't really overly long, it just has two climaxes and the first one is much stronger making the last act feel kind of meandering.

There's a director's cut on Blu-ray that supposedly runs almost five hours. I don't think there's enough money in the world to make me watch that, and I have no idea how Ron Maxwell convinced Ted Turner to fund the movie out of his personal fortune. Edit: 8? Jesus, that movie came out in 2003, you're a child.

I wish I could watch Hateful 8 in 70mm. I don't think there it would even be possible for it to come to Iceland because there is only one theater in the entire country which still occasionally shows movies on film and all their screens are too small.

I had a guy I used to work with who used to love to go to Ozzfest and metal/rock concerts. He said the most memorable moment was in...2006? I think? I may be remembering wrong but he said Zakk Wylde was playing with Black Sabbath at Ozzfest and he was really excited to actually see Ozzy sing with Black Sabbath. So it's like day 2 and Ozzy finally shuffles out onto the stage and the band starts playing the opening music to Mr. Crowley and the crowd is going nuts. Ozzy grabs the mic and yells "MIIIIIISTER CROWLEYYYYY" And stops and pauses because he has clearly forgotten the words as Sabbath launches into the rest of it. Wylde ran up and started singing the lyrics with Ozzy a few seconds behind, who eventually just stopped singing and started spraying the crowd with water guns or something like that.

The problem of excessive length is only so prominent because modern life is so frantic. If we abandon our capitalist ways any three-hour movie might be noticeably more enjoyable.

I think its kind of just that there are more long movies than good movies. When a movie is bad, a long running time magnifies the issues. When a movie is good, running time is not a factor of quality.

Yeah there's a solid decade+ of peanuts that's nothing like the stuff we're familiar with via the cartoons. Charlie Brown's more of an rear end in a top hat than a mope, too. That stuff's great. I mean I like the peanuts characters but their adventures just seem poorly executed a lot of the time, especially in elongated, poorly voiced acted cartoon form. PS:
