Why is Age of Ultron so long?

Age of Ul-How long?!?!?!

DesignTrend.com has story up about Avengers: Age of Ultron receiving a 160 minute runtime. That’s a whopping 2 hours and 40 minutes of awesome presuming it lives up to the first. With so much happening and various characters being introduced (I’m looking at you Black Panther) it seems only fair to give the movie a bit more heft.

Get comfortable movie-goers, the “Avengers” gang will be back in theaters in a nearly three-hour long “Age of Ultron” sequel this May.

This puts it in line with other comic book movies such as The Dark Knight however that film is much darker superhero tale. The Marvel Cinematic Universe hasn’t gone as dark yet but this could be an indication that it is going to get much more gritty in the MCU. That is a mammoth run time so I am guessing there will be plenty of dramatic moments to fill the void when we aren’t being treated to hulk smashing, shield tossing, hammer pounding, robot annihilating, arrow slinging… you get the idea.

I’m looking forward to the epicness of this and will be well rested and fed before sitting in my preordered seat. Now if I can only figure out a way to use the restroom during… hmmm. Thoughts Fad Fans? How do you think a nearly 3 hour Marvel superhero epic will play? Do you think they will be able to fit everything in? How do you plan on spacing out your bathroom breaks? These are important questions people!!!

Glenn: Never one for hyperbole, Glenn has seen all movies that have ever been made or will be made. This power bestowed upon him by the ancient sentient being "The Viewer" Glenn has used this power to voice his opinion to any and all that would listen. Every Superhero ends up on a team and Glenn has found his in FilmFad. Together world domination seemed imminent however after a change of heart Glenn found himself unable to use his power to critique. After being bested by FilmFad head Ryan in a homemade game of Fear Factor, Glenn agreed to join the team again on the promise that any dissenting commenters would have to battle him to the death... To date all responses have been positive. Honestly Glenn, is a guy that has watched a lot of Cinema as well as TV. He has studied screen writing and directed a few short films. Stepping into the world of online blogging is fun and offers an entirely new exciting platform to share his unique views on Film and TV.
