Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire has a running time of 156 minutes and 54 seconds, according to the British Board of Film Classification
. That's a mere six seconds shy of what we reported earlier this month based on a reliable source (who apparently rounded up).
Veritaserum reports that the final 13 minutes, which contain the film's credits, are worth sitting through to get some extra laughs.
This length makes it the second longest Potter film after Chamber of Secrets, which clocked in at 161 minutes, even though the book is twice as long.
The BBFC recently rated Goblet of Fire 12A, meaning no one under 12 years old may see the movie without an accompanying adult. The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) rated the film PG-13 in the U.S. which places kids under 13 under the same restriction.

I wonder what's going to make the credits so long. I mean normaly credits don't last 13 minutes do they? I've always sat through all the credits of movies to listen to the music.....thoug know that I think about it at the end of Chamber there was a clip at Diagon Alley where you see a window display for Lockheart's new book "Who am I?" so it may be something like that....still I'm exited! 24 days!

Yay! That's a lot of Harry Potter to look forward to! I hope that the credits are as funny as they say they are going to be. Usually I skip out at the end of a movie, but I'll be sure to stick around for these credits!

Thats awesome!! I was hoping it would be longer than POA! And they reported that there were tons of footage that was cut! Imagine how long it would be if they hadn't cut that stuff out!

I don't mind it being that short, but I do mind it when they take out things like house-elves to cut down the length and add in scenes like McGonagal teaching everybody how to dance... oh well.

[b]Agh!
Why is it so short? The book is such a long one, and I'm sure that nobody would mind a 3 hr or 3.5 hr film. Well, I know I wouldn't. I've waited so long for this, and it's gonna be so short? Hah, well, at least the credits will be worth watching. In the PoA credits, the whole thing was attractive, but rather boring after a while - a really short while.

I don't always stick around for the credits, so I'm glad to get the heads up to stick around for a laugh.

I did expect it to be slightly longer, but I'm still happy! I always sit through all the credits, you never know what they might slip in there.

Yay, so the movie's not going to be too short, I like long movies. It's too bad that there's PG-13 in the US while it's 12A in the UK, I bet a lot of twelve year olds would want to see the movie here independently. I wonder what kind of laughs are in the end credits.

I think that it is a long time for any movie but I wonder what scenes they cut from the book since the novel is massive.

Wow, that is a very long movie. It's like 2 and 1/2 hours long. Well most of the HP movies are that long. I bet they are showing the mess-ups during the credits, that should be really funny.
