'Star Wars' Update: Excatly How Long Is 'The Force Awakens’? [VIDEO]
George Lucas may have gotten a little cocky on his Star Wars prequels after lengthening The Phantom Menace, Attack Of The Clones, and Revenge Of The Sith to 136 minutes, 142 minutes, and 140 minutes respectively. Now with all eyes on J.J. Abrams, we're wondering how long The Force Awakens will be.
Rumors clocked in that the latest franchise is to be at 137 minutes long. However, Cinemablend reports that Episode VII will run for 2 hours and 16 minutes. That's 136 minutes of your life getting to know the newest characters and re-familiarizing yourself with the old ones.
Oh, and that doesn't include the amount of time you're about to spend pondering on whether you found the film a hit or not; not to mention your future length review as to whether or not J.J. Abrams pulled it off.
For now, we're counting down and it's just 17 days to go!
