I just watched Good Time again.
Who knew Pattinson was such a great actor. Guy deserves the Batman role.
Also, the directors of Good Time kick ass. They also did a movie with Adam Sandler called Uncut Gems. They’re very good at creating a sense of tension that doesn’t let up the entire time. Pretty impressive.

Good interview with director:

More confirmation that Affleck was never his Batman plus more on the influences of the film. A Nirvana-inspired Batman film? Never knew I needed that, but I do.

Depends on the project. Venom 2 just released at a brisk 90 minutes, but it wasn’t a great film.
Personally, as long as the story is paced well, and utilizes it’s runtime effectively, the runtime doesn’t matter much to me. In fact, as long as it’s executed well, then I say the more the merrier. Not to say I want to see something stretched out with filler.
I can see how a long runtime would hinder others though. Sometimes you’re just not invested enough to want to commit to that. That’s probably why I never watch the hot new streaming show. When there’s like 5 seasons, it’s too daunting.
