A theater can probably do only one showing of a 5 hour movie a day in prime hours, even being able to do two is a big difference for them. I'm sure that's a concern.

the posted:This and also distribution companies have learned that they can literally make double profits by splitting movies in two. I don't think that's really an apt comparison, those adaptions were split into two during pre-production and the decisions were also about franchise building. I am sure LRT movies make a lot more for distribution companies than the great bulk of indie movies but not to the point where splitting it into two is a goldmine. It's going to be shown at a lot of small places with like 3 screens that aren't going to want to show it on all three screens which they'd have to do if it were five hours long/etc.
