According to an extremely reliable source, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire will have a running time of 157 minutes, making it the second longest film in the series of Warner Bros. adaptations of JK Rowling's books. The second movie, at 161 minutes, is the longest.
We're awaiting confirmation from Warner Bros.
UPDATE: WB cannot confirm the running time at present, but The Leaky Cauldron is also reporting
they've received tips that the film will be 160 minutes.
UPDATE #2: According to another tipster, the film is "2 hours 34 minutes and 38 seconds or 154 minutes and 38 secs... from the first glimpse of the movie until the last frame (WB logo)." Presumably, that figure is based on an advanced cut of the movie.

OK, 5 minutes isn't really that much longer. Maybe this additional five minutes just covers all the credits for the cgi staff. I'll try to remain hopeful that the action in the movie is where this 5 minutes is used.

That would be really great, if true. That means it is well over 2 1/2 hours. I still am sorry it will not be longer. Maybe they will do a longer version on DVD.

Hallelujah!!!
I am so sick of them shortening the HP films just because they are made for kids.
Kids sat through the LOTR movies just fine.
I am so happy. I just wished they left in some of the story lines...but we can't have everything.

That's good news, right? YAY! Well, I think it's like the best length of the movie: not too long and still not too long. Perfect!
I hope.

Yea! What like 3 hours? That sounds fine to me as long as things aren't rearranged and changed too much like in the 3rd movie. I am wondering now because of the blue dress that Hermione isn't wearing.

Amazing! Of course, I would watch it if it was five hours long- you know you would too. Can't wait to see what made it in- or what shows up in deleted scenes on the DVD!
