Personally, I am hoping for a 3 hour run-time!

The Longer, the more room for story and secrets to unfold, but sure does suck having to ged up mid movie cause ur bladder just cant hold it anymore cause u drank that large drink u baught to sip on while waiting in line for the movie to seated for and start.

190 minutes = 3 hours and ten minutes and the bunch of us have discussed this many times...but do we have any confirmation of this yet FRANTZ? If it is true it is such an awesome thing !!! It will also probabaly mean we have NO CLUE yet at all, what's really going on in this film.

Hmm... Maybe it's 190 min of recorded material? I didn't expect more than 2 hours movie from this. This must get money. Longer movie = less seanses in a day = less money. All Aliens had 1:50 except Aliens, but this was Cameron, and his wife was a producer.

Good point about the expense of a long movie, but I have always believed that something of this scale, the more you spend the more you make. Well.... that is if the director can engage an audience well... and with Ridley at the helm he should be able to tell his story 3 hours if need be! Think of the repeat ticket sales, and MAN, this will be a movie that will SELL Blue-Rays. Huge profit margins there. **Although they will probably release the 3 hour version ON the Blue-Ray to promt more sales... anyway, I truly hope we at least get something as long as Aliens.

Judging by the long running times of the #1 and #2 international box office hits of all time (Titanic & Avatar). I'll be hoping for a 3 hour epic. Everyone knows the rest of the world can focus longer than a typical US audience. (Haters: I live in FL). Either that or the derelict needs to sink into the ground at the end followed by the blue guy getting pushed off a piece of rubble by Shaw and slowly sinking away too. (But she'll never forget him.)

Hopefully 3hours! As it'll be the best 3hours of my 24year young life so far. . . Yeah DB you're right there! Lol. I just hope this isn't in ANYWAY similar to Avatar, which was so over-done and cliched I think I was gonna shoot myself. I've seen potential comparisons saying Prometheus is like the anti-Avatar, which I assume means it won't be like that and WILL be dark/scary and meaningful!
