Avengers 4: Endgame (Joe & Anthony Russo April 26, 2019) Movie • Page 24

I've waited way too long to do a full rewatch so I think this is my plan as far as a rewatch before Endgame

Avengers
Winter Solider
Guardians
Age of Ultron
Civil War
Ragnarok
Panther
Infinity
Ant Man & Wasp
Capt Marvel (maybe)

 

For me I'm watching
Iron Man
Cap 1
Avengers
Winter Soldier
Age of Ultron
Ant-Man
Civil War
Thor Rag
Infinity War

I feel like out of all the MCU films, those ones will be the most worthy before Endgame. I don't plan on re-watching Captain Marvel in theaters so that's why it's not listed.

 

Source? I know April 2nd has been rumored for awhile, but just wondering if you have some insider info haha

 

sneaker god knows all

 

Yeah Iron Man, Cap and Ant Man I was pondering but I didn't want my list to get too long lol

 

I'm just gonna watch Infinity War.

 

Not related at all to my favorite day but I run a movie theatre for a living.

 

and

 

Praise be

 

Damn, that is a long run time. I’m only a casual Marvel fan so maybe my opinion is different than most, but give me a 10 minute intermission please.

 

We’re definitely not getting an intermission

 

Intermissions are a nightmare, don’t want to be distracted through ten minutes of a movie while half the theater is trickling back in using their phone to find their seats because they didn’t get their concessions in time

 

People are acting like this is the first film in history with a 3 hour run time lol

 

Intermission lol

 

3 hours is a very long run time. It's nearly double the length of an average movie.

 

I mean, the idea of an intermission is brought up pretty much anytime a movie's runtime gets close to 3 hours. This is probably just the most popular film in recent memory that hits that mark. Not saying I'm expecting it. Just saying I wouldn't mind if it was there.

 

Tarantino's Hateful Eight aside, when’s the last time any film has had an intermission?

 

What a lot of people are missing in this conversation is that intermissions don't have anything to do with the audience needing a break. They used to happen because on 35mm projectors, the platters that held the film weren't big enough to hold movies of a certain length. The intermission would occur so that the projectionist could put the last reel of the film onto the platter, thread it and then get it going.

The answer to your question, as far as I can remember is Gods and Generals (2003)

 

That's an interesting and very valid point.

My issue with a movie this long isn't so much that I need a break to go to the restroom or get food and drinks, it's just that 3 hours is a large chunk of time to dedicate to a movie in general. It reminds me how brutal it is to finish Return of the King in one sitting, especially in a theater. The drive, previews, and movie itself is over 1/4 of your whole day! haha

 

I've never seen the theatrical cuts of the Lord of the Rings movies and never intend to. Give me all of the 4 hour movies!

 

Ahh, I didn't know that. Cool, fact. Thanks!

 

The last big release I remember having it was Titanic.

 

Didn't Grindhouse have it?

 

It may have, but I believe it was only as a gimmick for the presentation. That was 2 movies still 31 minutes shorter than Gods and Generals. Haha.
