Martin Scorsese's feature, which runs three hours and 26 minutes, has led to debate over appropriate film length, with one individual saying about the unauthorized break: "People were big fans of it."

    Honestly, I’m not sure why all movies over 2 hours don’t have them, inserted by the theater so that they can sell more popcorn and candy.

      2 hours seems normal to me, but I could definitely see it as you get closer to three.

      Hateful Eight had one and that was 2 hours 55 minutes.

      I bet the internet has a list of movies with intermissions:

      (looked, lots of lists, but not correlated with run times)

      Cleopatra was almost 4 damn hours!

        And the Hateful 8 road show was the last great cinematic experience that comes to my mind. Coincidence? Probably since I just hate theaters now.
