MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 12:09 PMThe run time for Prometheus has apparently been noted at 119 minutes according to a video of the interview with the cast held in Paris this evening: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rua8WuG9x9E&feature=youtu.be]Watch It Here[/url].
Thanks to [url=http://www.prometheusforum.net/discussion/540]PrometheusNews.net[/url] for the tip.

AdminEngineerApr-12-2012 12:17 PMI understand advertising for other sites is fine and all, but it gets tiresome to constantly read a thread that only contains links to another site. You know you can post the content as well as provide a source link at the top or bottom, right? Images, I understand if the source site doesn't provide a direct URL to the image, but please refrain from just posting links to other forums and instead give us something to read!
I'm going to update the first post of this thread with more information.

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 12:17 PMone minute shy of two hours.....i guess since they got the pg 13 rating they had to scale down somethings....looks like we are going to have to wait for the blu ray for all of our questions to be answered......sucks!!!

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 12:26 PMThat is referencing a YOUTUBE clip??
How is that hard news?
So, just to summarize 119 minutes with an alternate version with 17 additional minutes !?!?

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 12:31 PMLess than 2 hours? I am a sad puppy now... :(
Ridley Scott will eventually tell us how the Queen was born.
Right now we have the Deacon; coming soon the Mercury, the May and the Taylor.

MemberFacehuggerApr-12-2012 12:41 PMIt's a little more difficult to accept a movie only 119 minutes long as "epic", as Scott and Lindelof have mentioned in the past. Sounds like Scott was interested in getting the correct pacing just like he was in 'Alien', which was 117 minutes with 20 minutes of extra footage removed.
As a fan, you don't mind seeing 3 or 4 hours of this stuff, as long as it's done well and there's an intermission. :-) It's just a little odd when 'The Hunger Games' is 2 hours and 22 minutes and doesn't cover the complex issues that we expect will be dealt with in 'Prometheus'.
Has anyone confirmed whether the 17 minutes are really about pacing or from cuts to get the rating the studio and Scott want?

According to a (presumably) a native French speaker on IMDb or someone who fully understands the French Q&A:
In the French Press conference, he said he now found the perfect pace, it's tight but that's how he wanted it to be. In his mind 1h 59min was enough (without credits).[/quote]
God I hope so ... I can deal with 1hr 59min :) ... then add the 17mins on top of that for BluRay :) ... ta ...
Edit: Ok ... it [b]IS[/b] 2hrs long lol ... I can't add up for sh!t ... carry on ...

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 12:49 PMI must say, the run time really surprised me, but kinda in a bad way. I really wanted this to be something about 2.20-2.40, and it looks a bit too short now. We know almost nothing about the rating, just rumours, but this whole thing just screams pg13 to me and I don't know why, it just does. I feel like this "119min" version is "already-cut pg" version of the movie. I wish it was otherwise.

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 1:05 PMmmmm this has redefined the word EPIC half an hour longer than a pilot episode unimpressed.

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 1:14 PMI am fluently bilingual, French and English, but despite this, that video is just way too badly encoded to watch at all, I will wait for a proper version, that one makes it impossible to watch it because of the translation going on is far too loud while it happens live and even far MORE because it is so badly encoded it doesn't stream properly. But what a Joy to see them all like that, it's a pitty I want to see that whole thing now.

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 1:24 PMIm bilingual french english as well being in quebec its a necessity almost. But i dint hear or see anything mentioning 1hr59min. I still just seethe very uninspiring 1hr19min
I do want it to be more 1;59 however im with u sparty but thats apparently what it is.

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 1:27 PMok guys you are mixed up, the thread title says the film is 119 mins long which is in fact 1 hour and 59 minutes...someone suggested that 119 minutes was 1hour and 19 minutes which it obviously is not. So all I said was it is in fact 1 minutes shy of 2 hours or 1 hour and 59 minutes. The video in this thread is 35 minutes long and is so badly encoded it stops every few seconds...Just FYI

MemberOvomorphApr-12-2012 1:36 PM@ Sparty ...
Hahaha ... classic ...
Yep I read that totally wrong lol ... 119mins is just shy of 2hrs ... hahaha ... I read that as 1hr 19mins as in 80mins long ... I had 1hr 59min on my mind that's why ...
I'm still crap at Math ;) ...
