I love how people already dislike this movie before it is even out.

Last time I sat in a theater for a long time was to watch "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo." Before that was "Watchmen." Before that was "The Dark Knight." I might be able to handle it.
Also, I think it would just be before the 160 mark when it ends. There's also the credits and I am certain that the closing credits will be the ones that have the actors names and production credits before the scrolling credits start with the cast and other credits.

My attention span is absolutely terrible, so I kinda dread seeing this in theaters. I'm looking forward to it and I want to see it, but man, nearly three hours is going to be painful.

That's like saying Thanos is not that vital of a villain when he KILLLED a few of the Avengers. Killing Avengers is easy. Ask Korvac, Scarlet Witch, Akhenaten, Red Skull, Thor, Iron Man, Mr. Fantastic, Captain Marvel, Kang, Deathurge, Hellstorm, Norman Osborn, or the Bloodaxe. And I'm sure I'm missing some. |

To lay the Bane talk to rest and focus on the time, I know the whole thing is about how it feels rather than the actual time. However, all the Nolan Batman movies do have occasional lull moments in there, moreso in Begins than TDK. The big issue will be to avoid it going too long, and even with all the stuff Nolan has planned, apparently, it might still have those that make the length noticeable.

ugh
It's the LAST Nolan Batman flick. This is IT. Of course it's going to be long and epic. 90 minutes just wouldn't cut it.

This is like, 8 minutes longer than the last one, and TDK went by so fast I could hardly believe it.

I'll enjoy this, but I REALLY felt TDK length on repeat viewings.

I am game. I love long films and this one will be no exception. It's no different than Spider-Man 2, TDK, Lord of the Rings, Watchmen, and even Avengers where it's 2 hours to 3 hours long.
For example, Transformers 3, as awesome as it was, that was WAY too long and being an employee at a movie theatre I can't tell you how tired I got of waiting for it to end so I can pick up 3D glasses from customers.

I dont mind the length but I'm strangely not excited to see the next batman. Which is weird because I'm a massive fan of the comic books,have batman action figures,enjoyed the animated series and enjoyed the movie. I even am starring right now at a batman snowglobe that is on my dvd shelf.
It just feels like its gonna be a letdown. I dont know why. I hope im wrong. I really do.

You do realize that almost everyone you just named is one of the most powerful characters in Marvel , Right? Seriously outside of Norman Osborn , that's basically a large percentage of the top two hundred most powerful characters in marvel. Popularity does not equal Strength. The Saint Of Killers could annihilate superman yet he's less popular. Hell , Swamp Thing once almost caused superman to burn through all of his powers. |

If the movie is as good as I hope it is, I don't mind the runtime.
I'll just make sure to use the bathroom first and avoid a large drink before the movie.

I think the thing is with TDKR is that the whole realistic, underplayed superhero universe that seemed cool in Batman Begins and perfected in TDK, just doesn't seem as interesting now that we have stuff like Avengers which literally looks like it came off a comic book.
