Movies too long? [message #73301]

Has anyone else's attention span when it comes to seeing movies in the theater fallen short over the years? You're very hard-pressed to find a flick under two hours these days. I start getting antsy about 3/4 of the way in, after I'm sure they've included a lot of unnecessary scenes.

I can relate. I'm very selective of the movies that I watch, and I am usually much happier just surfing the internet instead. To me, TV and movie theaters are just overrated.

Yes, this happens to me all the time. It's one of the reasons I don't really care to go to the theater anymore. If I'm at home, I can move around while watching the movie and won't get as antsy.

I think this is especially true for certain genres. The worst for me are comedies. It seems like they are often hilarious for a while, but they can't keep their momentum.
