Length of RotK

I know that New Line gave Jackson three and a half to four hours in which RotK could be, but I was curious if it has been released offically on how long the movie will be. Anyone know?

RotK was Peter Jacksons favorite and is supposedly the best of the three.

If it truly lives up tot he first two.....it will be aperfect trilogy.....over 12 hours of cinema goodness in all its extended version glory.

Man, if he does the hobbit, he could beat Wagner for length on ring-based epics.

Yah, supposedly it was officially announced that the running time was 210 minutes, ie 3 1/2 hours on the nose.

With Jackson working on a Godzilla remake, it is very doubtful that he will make a Hobbit, thought I would be the first to see it if he did. The actors that play Bilbo and Gandalf (Ian McKellen) would be perfect.

This is getting out of control. What's next? Four hours? Five? Someone has to bring the boom down on Jackson and make him cut another half hour. We must dissent.

3.5 is too long for you? Wtf.

If its good, it needs to be long. It's the finale. You have to do it right.

Being that the second movie didn't end where the second book ended, by all means, please make it four if not four and a half hours long.

Think of it as good ADD therapy.

Or you can think of it as paying the same amount of money for more movie.

Either way, don't cut a damn thing just to make the movie fit some preconcieved time limit. Give me more movie!!! thx

Who cares how long it is if it's the best movie of all time?

If you leave and say, hey that movie might be the best one i've ever seen, does it really make a difference how long it was?

Yah, definitely King Kong and not Godzilla. Perfectly understandable mix-up though, brought the first smile to me today this early morning!

3.5 hours is not that bad. You obviously have never seen Once Upon a Time in America.

Runtime: 139 min / Italy:238 min / USA:227 min (extended version)
or The Ten commandments

Runtime: 220 min
or The Greatest Story Ever Told

Runtime: 260 min / UK:197 min (edited version)
or

The directors cut of Dances With Wolves

Quote:
Runtime: 180 min / UK:237 min (uncut European version) / USA:224 min (long version) / USA:236 min (director's cut)
Or sat through a DVD version of a mini series like The Stand

Runtime: 366 min / USA:359 min (dvd version)
3.5 hours doesnt seem so long anymore does it?
