Warning: Spoilers ahead ***Avengers: Endgame - Official Thread!***

[VincentHanna]

I'm going to try and get tickets for me and my wife in one of the big London cinemas (Odeon Leicester Square or Cineworld Laser IMAX) for the Saturday 27th.

However, I think I might take myself off to the cinema on Thursday daytime without telling her and watch it on my own

I find that even the best marvel movies are even better the second time around, you can actually let them play out without the expectation.

@VincentHanna , have you seen this thread?

The new Odeon is pathetically tiny. It's not even a quarter of the size of the Laser IMAX.

I read that when it was originally announced a few days ago. I do wonder if they'll try and cut it down a bit more not not though, and maybe do a longer take for Blu-Ray. They even discussed having an intermission apparently.

Either way, I can't wait!

Edit: For those who haven't seen it.

Looks like this is all but confirmed now.

3 hours and 2 minutes!

its weird that i'm looking forward to a 3 hour superhero movie!

 

[Minusorange]

3 hours ? I bet it will still feel short if it's as any good as Infinity War

When are tickets going on sale?

 

[V_R]

2nd April seems to be the date banded around.

will there be an intermission...my backside will go numb sitting for 3 hours...and having a drink is out of the question!

You need to train your body to withstand the amount of drink you pour into it. Thereby ensuring you have the endurance to watch a 3hr movie without the need to get up and go empty your bladder. Have you even sat through and watched the extended editions of LotR yet as practice? I think this should be a requirement! Haha!

But in all seriousness, no way am I going to get up to go to the loo watching Endgame. I have sat through movies nearly as long if not just as long and have managed fine.

Interesting given it's released essentially a month today (yesterday for us folk in the UK). I am organising a work event to see the movie in May and I am hoping the tickets are out by the end of this week. But if they are released next week, then it means I can wait a bit longer for peeps at work to confirm if they will attend or not.

Depends on the cinema, I would say not these days.

 

[FTM]

I sat through JFK...at 3 hours and 9 minutes

the last 25 minutes was torture

I remember seeing Watchmen back in 2009 and thinking that movie could have been a good hour shorter.

 

[VincentHanna]

Nah, Watchman is great.

It could have done with being a big budget mini-series.

You know HBO are literally releasing a Watchmen series this year right?

I like the 3.5 hour cut of Watchmen with the animation interspersed throughout.

 

[VincentHanna]

Yes, but it's not based on the comic/graphic novel story.

 

[SixTwoSix]

Yes, but it's not based on the comic/graphic novel story.

I haven't read a lot about it but believe it's a follow up?

 

[VincentHanna]

Exactly...It's a new thing.

embraces the nostalgia of the original groundbreaking graphic novel while attempting to break new ground of its own

"IT BROKE NEW GROUND!"

I stood in Times Square on nye for 14hrs without a toilet break ... the secret is to not think about it.

That said, I wouldn’t drink 2ltrs and expect it to be comfortable after 3hrs

Stadium Pal FTW.



They're starting to up the hype for Endgame now....
