According to this website for an IMAX theater in Raleigh, NC, 'The Dark Knight' clocks in at 152 minutes. I can't wait!

Hey...that's where I'll be seeing it

quaylie · 06-08-2008, 01:51 PM

I can't believe we are only a month away now..most anticipated movie of the year for me.

TauHeel05 · 06-08-2008, 01:52 PM

cool deal, i'm definitely going to see it there.

cathexist · 06-08-2008, 01:55 PM

You in Raleigh? Chapel Hill?

bajor27 · 06-08-2008, 01:59 PM

I was thinking of seeing this in IMAX as well, but for some reason my wife doesn't really like seeing movies in IMAX.

and wow, 152 minutes is awesome. That's one massive imax film strip though - must weigh a ton. Can they break it up into more than 2 parts?

Graduated from Carolina in '05, and now live in Winston-Salem. There is no IMAX in winston, so it's either raleigh or charlotte.

I can't believe someone made a thread about the run time of a movie

adam.cook · 06-13-2008, 08:33 PM

2 Hours and 32 minutes!

What a beast, I can't wait.

Kick Ass ! Where did you find out this info ?

JasonS · 06-13-2008, 08:46 PM

I seen this posted on IGN too....and they were actually complaining about it. What a bunch of tools. I can't wait for this movie!

If I were to complain I'd say it's too short. Lemme guess, they were saying too long?

fatediesel · 06-13-2008, 09:21 PM

I read that the initial runtime was over 3 1/2 hours, and they were trying to get it around 2 1/2 hours, which they did. Still, I'd love a full director's cut.

dobyblue · 06-13-2008, 09:28 PM

Hopefully when it hits Blu it will be the full version.

Those are the same people that complain that Lord of the Rings were too long and would cut each movie into 90 minutes.

I dunno if its just me, but movies being 90 minutes long seem like a rip off and unsatisfying.

You can count on that.

wnicholas76 · 06-13-2008, 09:52 PM

Batman Begins - 140 mins.

The Dark Knight - 152 mins.

The way I see it, it's like this: The longer the movie, the better it is in the end!

Why would anybody pay $10 for an 90min movie like that. I'm glad its 2 1/2 hours

well hopefully they'll bring it on to blu with seamless branching between director's cut and theatrical release... but we're gettin a little ahead of ourselves.
