New Moon Running Time

According to Cineplex.com the official running time for the Twilight Saga – New Moon is 2 hours and 2 minutes!

I am loving the fact that New Moon is just over 2 hours long!

[Thanks, Amber!]

    Maths question:

    "A film is 2 hours and 2 minutes long, you have cleared your weekend from Friday to Sunday and are planning to see this movie everyday. You stay there from 11-8 each day. How many times can you go see this film?" LOL

    Answer: 11-8 = 9 hours per day.

    9 divided by 2 = 4.5 rounded up to 5 times.

    5 times 3 = 15 times you will go watch this movie.

    "If a ticket costs £5 how much money will you spend?"

    15 times 5 = £75

    I HAVE THAT MONEY! YAY! LOL
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    You are a mathematical genius...
    *runs to check wallet*
    Great I have $100! But it sux because that means I can only watch it about 8x with the cost of tickets here.
  • Wow you're tickets are cheap! our tickets cost 13 dollars each!
  • OhEdward (The Original)
    My husband would admire your work. I don't think he'll give me a weekend pass to keep watching it over and over.

    I'll have to do sneak visits during the week. ; - D
  • The Popper
    Oh, the people where i live are evil genisuses!!.. those blahs!!

    .... no weekend passes aloud, the whole weekend, so not until monday...

    .... tickets are $9.25, normally $8.50, all weekend.........

    .... and all week, until next monday, they are only showing the movie 5 times a day on 2 different screens, so, once the movie is over, u cant sneak back in...

    ... AH!!.. They're ruining everything?!
  • bampire
    That's funny!!! I have it too!!!! I can't wait!!!!!
  • Kay
    2 hrs!! i was hoping for 2:30 or a bit more =( more shirtless wolfpack and Edward *wiggles eyebrows*..

    *sigh* oh well i trust Chris Weitz...NM's been looking AWESOME!
  • Team8Pack
    don't even worry, that will all come in when we get our special edition 7disk dvds, with all the extra features including a deleted scene where you rub oil all over the wolf pack (:
  • The Popper
    LMAO!!... Who's rubbing the oil?... the special edition should include a real life, individually packed, wolf pack member... oil not included...

    *crossing fingers for jacob"

    ok.. what I'm I talking about?!!?.. if that was the case, I'd go broke buying every dvd I can get my hands on... !!
  • Team8Pack
    bahahahaha (: so true, so would I
  • The Popper
    ... not if I get em first... lol....

    It would be glorious mayhem!...
  • noemi
    yay!!!!!!! that means it will be a sitting at the edge of ur seat,gripping the armrests,holding ur bathroom breaks for two hrs...and hyperventilating thought the 2 hr. goodness that is new moon.....lol i cant wait i already got my tickets a month ago yay!!!!!!!
  • geminiheartmk
    Ya, same here, I was also hoping for at least 2 1/2 hours of NM. I can't wait to see it!
  • Irishgirl
    I was expecting 2 1/2 hours as well, especially since Weitz said the initial cut of the movie was over 3 hours long. It's surprising that he cut over an hour from the film.

    Makes me think that the dream sequence we saw in the LA Times didn't make it in. I hope I'm wrong because it looked pretty wicked.
  • The Popper
    well, remember the cutting room floor... im sure there are montages, like in the previews, of multiple things, a small glimpse of somethings is better than nothing... plus plenty of deleted scenes for dvd... I think we're going to be ok, in fact I'm hoping we're going to be fantastic... 2 hrs is good, at least its not an 1hr and a half, i would be really worried then!... its not a disney movie... (which i love)... lol!...
  • stacksalls
    I am upset, i had really hoped to movie would be minimum 21/2 hours but closer to 3. what a let down. I hope they make eclipse and breaking dawn longer. got more than that out of harry potter and lord of the rings. jeesh!
    I guess they didn't make enough money off twilight to give us a longer movie. the cheap skates.
  • randomcharmed
    its kind of annoying that the film is so short really, as there is sooo much in the book that cant be missed out.
    ive got a feeling that its going to be good, but that there might be bits that are shorter than they should be you know?
    but i know that chris weitz did really well with the Golden Compass, so i know that all the action is going to be top class.
    just dont let us down chris weitz!
  • StephanieDJ
    I'd be glad to watch it if it was 20 hrs long...but I'm sure not many others would.
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    Say it like you mean it my Kay... haha!!!
    I was expecting a bit more too... Twilight was also two hours...
    *kicks dirt*
    Man... it still has to rock... woot woot!!
  • Kay
    yeah Twi was 2 hours and it was 2 hours of almost disaster and missing scenes. i really hope NM is like the book...no important scenes missing. grrr i really hoped it would be at least 2:20. *sigh*
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    2:20 hrs Kay?!? Psh... I was aiming for THREE hours.. dammit!! Lol Hey everything looks good so far so that's keeping me happy for now.. I cant wait!! Ahhhh
  • Kay
    LOL that's why I wrote at Least Ceci.. i wouldn't mind sitting all day watching it. =D the more the merrier haha
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    Ooopsy missed the LEAST part... ha!! Sorry.. Ive lost it this week... SO much going on... HALE yea the more the happier we'll be!!
  • randomcharmed
    i thought it would also be around the 2.30 time mark.as theyre rivaling harry potter, you think that they woul;d at least go to around the same sort of time.
    twilight did miss alot of scenes and the baseball/tracker james bit didnt quite make much sense , as in the book it takes a lot of pages lol.
    plus scenes cant be missed out of this film, as anything that is taken out will mean that some of the story wont make a 100% sense.
    they made that mistake in harry potter and the order of the phoenix, by taking out the quidditch.now having seen the sixth one where harry potter is now the captain of the griffindor tem, doesnt make much sense.
    i really want it to be a bit longer...

    but yay on how good the adverts are!seen my first new moon advert on friday and omg the wolves are freaking excellent!!!!
    the only problem is i cant watch them because i always seem to see all the best bits and i dont want to ruin the film too much as i want to see how good it is! i know ive read the book, but i want to see how good chris weitz's interpretation is!
    go team jacob and the yummy (yes i said yummy, thought i passed the yummy word years ago), quileute wolves are.... :)
  • iRunWithJasper
    hey hey you be grateful missy!!!
    :P
  • Kay
    I am grateful, it's just that I expected it to be longer than Twilight since there was a bigger budget to work with and a different director who understood what the readers wanted. and lets not forget that NM is way deeper than Twi. from what we've seen, CW has done amazingly in putting the important scenes and even the tiny details from the book, so that's why I thought too it would be longer.plus watching the vamps and wolves for a little longer wouldn't hurt too LOL
  • randomcharmed
    i agree.on everything you just said!
    LISTEN MR CHRIS WEITZ:
    We would like to see the rest of the five hours of film please!all of us on here are huge huge fans of the film and the book, so the rest of the 2hours and 58 minutes please!thankyou
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠

    I'm greedy..... you mean out of 5 hours of film we're only getting 2 hours 2 mins.

    Okay where is the other 2 hours 58 mins at? Chris cough it up.

    This makes me wish I was in the band DCFC just to get the chance to watch all of that 5 hours.
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    Ok so we should petition for the 5 hour extended version to at least be on the DVD!
  • Nay (Team Up Against The Wall)
    Oh I would buy it in a second no matter what they charged.

  • Dutchie♥F*ckhotS*xonLegs Apr09
    Good afternoon all!!

    Two hours of total bliss.... wow!!!
  • jess511
    Wow, that was the official running time for Twilight, too! At least that's what it said everywhere, but I remember the running time in the DVD was a few minutes shorter!
  • galbrt
    So we'll be leaving the cinema at 2.02 am then! Yay that's a good amount of time, can't wait!
  • Don'tDrink&RunWithWoodenStakes
    Oh...the same as Twilight.....that's a disappointment
  • thats what makes it suspicious to me... its exactly the same time as Twilight. And if this is the only place reporting it... then maybe they just put it there so it wouldnt be blank on their site.
  • Lu :) SPIDERFLIPPY = LOVE.
    twilight was 1hour50 wasn't it? :S so its a little bit longer . . .
  • Don'tDrink&RunWithWoodenStakes
    According to IMDb it was 122 minutes, they include the end credits...so I guess it the same with New Moon.
    Twilight without end credits was 1.57 minutes I think.
  • Lu :) SPIDERFLIPPY = LOVE.
    ohhhh. so it's two hours with credits?

    doesn't really seem that long . . . .
  • TheTwilightImpulse
    sounds good to me. But i had hoped it would be 2 and a half hours. Twilight was 2 hrs and it went by sooo fast!!!
  • teamswitzzienessgal(tsg)
    YAYYYYYY good to know
  • teamswitzzienessgal(tsg)
    have not been on in a while! BUT YAYYYYY i like it also how he promised it would be over 2 hours HAHA nice
  • FanaticalKira
    GREAT!
  • jess511
    Ohh!!! And what if there is also an Eclipse trailer after the movie??? Wouldn't that be perfect??? So 122 minutes for New Moon, 2 minutes for the Eclipse trailer and another 60 minutes to recover from all our Twilight high!!! :D:D
  • AverageJoe
    2 hours!!! Great!!! But I bet I'll be in the cinema's all day, re-watching it, over and over... After all the wait, I can't help myself... Can't wait for the wolves and Volturi!!! Woot!!
  • MissMary *TeamBellaLoca*
    That's the exact same length as the first. I wish it was longer too, but I'll take what I can get!!
  • mAriE_ImUrCh-Ch-CherryBomb!6/9
    awesome!!!

    it's as long as the twilight! love it! woohoo!

    thought i'd prefer longer of course but i guess 2 hours of NM is like heaven already..

    *grins*

    bring it on! hehe =)
  • ShowerMeInUnicorns(;

    I's be ecstatic if it was 3 hours. ;)
  • Name
    mm it seems great that New moon is at 2h02m but that is the exact running time that twilight had when it was released in theaters last year...i was hoping NM was going to be longer
  • lauren123
    2 Hours - Not long enough - Gimme More!!
  • Guest
    Are you serious? Cast: TAYLOR LAUTNER, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson?

    WTF is Taylor doing at first place? He's not the main character of the saga people. Kristen/Bella is. And Rob at the last? Oh, C-O-M-E O-N people!

    READ THE BOOKS!
  • WoWJB
    Chill out. Seriously. It's not that big a deal. I swear, like it's the end of the world that Robert Pattinson's effing name isn't first listed on an effing cineplex website.
  • Nay (Team Up Against The Wall)
    Sorry I feel Taylor earned this time to be mentioned first. Kristen supports him completely and is so proud of him she says it over and over again in interviews. I honestly doubt her and Rob care whether their names are mentioned first. So fans shouldn't either.

    Honestly, New Moon is Jacob so. Edward is gone and yes I've read the books over and over.

    It's not that big of a deal.
  • Boricuabee
    YA KNOW I was hoping for 3 hours at thought well the running time would probably be 2 hours 30 minutes the least. I guess I was wrong. Nonetheless, I still can't wait to see the movie.
  • Nay (Team Up Against The Wall)
    ME TOO!! I was HOPING at least 2 hours 30 mins.
  • sunray16
    They posted one of my tips....WOOHOO!! *does the happy dance*

    I have to admit that I'm a little disappointed with the runtime. I was hoping for something closer to 2.5 hours, but I will take what I can get. I'm a little nervous about what they're going to cut out. Twilight was the same length and it felt so rushed. Even the cast members that saw the uncut footage said it was 4-5 hours. Here's me...crossing my fingers for an extended director's cut DVD with TONS of deleted scenes! :)
  • Nay (Team Up Against The Wall)
    There was 5 hours and I wanna see it. Yes I would sit and watch every second of it over and over probably.
  • Prislovesteamrobsten
    wait really? that sucks then. i still dont get why we cant have 3 hours! The book is not boring! There are movies that are 3 hrs long for no good reason! oh well, ill try and enjoy what we get
  • sunray16
    That's what I heard from a couple of cast members - I think on Twitter. Oh yeah, I wouldn't care if the footage is rough, I'd still LOVE to see it! Maybe we can petition Chris W! :)
  • XHELLOKITTY99 Miami Coven Beta
    2 hours and 2 min only : )

    Ohh well 2 hours and 2 min in Mew Moon Heaven... Can't wait...

    44 more days : )
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    I still want the 5 hour extended version on DVD. ;)
  • XHELLOKITTY99 Miami Coven Beta
    I want a 24/7 extended version....
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    Yeah. they can give us all the raw footage they filmed. Now that would be awesome!
  • XHELLOKITTY99 Miami Coven Beta
    U know we should all be hired 2 direct Breaking Dawn we would be the best directors ever and then our movie would be 5 hours long hehehehe : )
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    Yes! You are right. I actually know how to edit movies to. That's what I do for a living. (not movies but weddings and commercials) so ... we are in good. We can do it.
  • LaPushbabyLaPush
    CHRISSSSSS!?!?!?!?!?! (drawing his name out)........

    I hate to pitch a Twilight Fit....but COME ON! Crazy Catherine had Twilight at 2 hours....and left out THE IMPORTANT THINGS!!!!!! (using very winy voice)

    *crossing my arms across my chest*........I WANT MORE TIME! MORE. TIME.!

    *huffing and pouting*........FINE!....I'm STILL going....but I'm not happy about JUST TWO hours..........

    And NO: I'm not gonna just be "thankful"........Poo on 2 hours.....!

    *one last plea* kneeling down with my hands folded* PLEASE RECONSIDER: 2.5 hours??

    ;-)
  • sunray16
    I'm right there with you!
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    *gets on knees withLaPushBaby*
    Please reconsider Chris, please.
    Or at least give us a 5 hour extended version on the DVD.
  • XHELLOKITTY99 Miami Coven Beta
    lmao @ Crazy Catherine...
  • ROCKandROLLcullens
    Damn it, that´s way too short...
  • Prislovesteamrobsten
    yes! that means they didnt cut out too much:) This movie is going to be amazing!
  • agava [04/09]
    I was so afraid they were going to make it shorter:)
    *tries to hush the greedy b@$tard inside her*
    Oh sh*t up! We both know 5 hours would be too long! 2 is fine!

    LOL!

    ---side note---
    I read FAN fiction instead of science fiction!!!
    How bad is that?
    LOL!!!
  • kerbear585
    yayyy! 2 hours. that is great :) wonder if Eclipse will be a little bit longer then BD a lot longer!!! that is what i am talking about :)
  • Justine [TEAMNOVEMBER18th]
    Pfft ! It's not even 2hours long ! Twilight's supposed to last 2:10 , but finally, the movie itselft lasts only 1:52 ... So let's say that New Moon will barely last 1:45 !

    .. I'll have to watch it a lot ! ! ! =D x)
  • 2,2!!!! really!!! I want 4 hrs!!!1
    i dont care!!! LOL

    Oh I just cant wait!!! :D
  • my alter eggo ♬♪
    why couldn't it be as long as Titanic?......
    2 hrs?!?!........not even 2.5 hrs........makes me wonder what's left out. :(
  • MillyPattinson - Flippy (L)
    we were never gonna get a 4hr movie like we want, regardless i am very happy with the length.,
    can not wait. :)
  • tiaa
    well you know twilight was said to last 2.05 hours. but it included the credits which were 7 minutes long..
  • RobinEA
    That is the exact amount of time Twilight got and it was a sham for the story. I was hoping they would try to do better for New Moon which is a longer book. New Moon is almost 80 pages longer than Twilight......Leave it to Summit, this must mean the story is slashed more than the last movie.
    For those of you that only want to look at Robert I am sure you will not care. For those of us that love Edward and the books it is sad!
    I do not know why I hoped for more, Summit can't even get little things correct such as the colors. Anyone that knows the books knows that Edward loves silver for his cars and blue is his favorite color for Bella. Pages are devoted to this in the book. I wonder if anyone at Summit has actually read the books.
  • Guest
    each book got thicker, so each movie should be a little longer
    twilight- 2hrs
    new moon- was hoping...2.5 hrs....but still excited :)
    eclipse- gosh I hope its at least 2.5...maybe 3 ;)
  • JMtoCullen
    Yay 2 extra minutes!!!! :D that's means more rob!!!!
  • suCker4VampiReS
    hmm.. i wonder if thats a real time running.. .. but either way its awesome! :) woohoo!!
  • suCker4VampiReS
    i dont think thats the official time running to be honest hehe no other movie theatre has that time limit.. usually the web pages i go to see how long a movie lasts always have the running time and i think the movie hasnt been handed in yet hehe but who knows!! i guess we'll have to wait and see i hope its longer lol :D longer as in the harry potter movies long haha :)
  • emily1234
    I agree! I have been looking...waiting...and basically stalking all internet sources to find an offical run time for New Moon. I live in Kansas and the theatre I got my tickets at does not list a run time. Last year Summit released the run time for Twilight about a month before it came out...there was a big article on it from Mtv. So maybe this is not the official run time!! I want it to be over two hours by more then two minutes! bah! Heres to hoping!!!
  • Nay (Team Up Against The Wall)
    This is making me wonder if they are being free with all these stills and film footage and they're gonna surprise us and it WON'T be in the movie...

    wouldn't that be a kick in the arse.
  • twilightaddict89
    OME... I went from super stoked to REALLY disappointed
    why you may ask...
    I checked my Twilight dvd to see how much longer New Moon would be AND
    its the EXACT same length...not even 1 minute longer =*(
  • TE101_Summit_I_Beg_You
    Yeah! Look at it as a good thing- it could be shorter!
  • smexi galore
    awh i saw this a few days ago when i was pre-ordering my midnight showing tix ;) i think it runs the same time as twilight
  • iceandfire
    Where was 2 hours with Twilight!?!? I don't care about New Moon!! That's not true, I do, but still! Eclipse should be 3 hrs cause it's my favorite!
  • Courtney
    Ok seriously, Twilight was the exact same amount of time. I was hoping for this one to be longer!!!! :(
  • twilightmom35
    I have to say I am a little pissed about the run time and i do think it is weird that it is the say as Twilight. I checked several of the Harry Potter movies and they all ran around 2hrs & 20 mins on average so why oh why can't New Moon. I hope that David Slade is listening and taking notes "We want longer movies". I am sure New Moon will be awesome but 2hrs & 2mins is just not enough.

    I hope Summit didn't do to Chris what the studio did to him on Golden Compass they recut it to what they wanted not what he visioned. I also heard some rumblings that Breaking Dawn could be a long ways away. Come on Summit do you really think these actors can pull of 17 & 18 yrs old for another 2 or 3 yrs. Get you S**T together and get them on contract and give us a date. Thank you all for listening to my rant of the day. ;)
  • LOOK IM A TWILIGHT FAN TO BUT U NEED TO LOOK AT IT THIS WAY. YALL DONT NEED TO BE BITCHING ABOUT HOW LONG THE MOVIE IS YALL NEED TO BE GLAD THAT THEY ARE MAKING THE MOVIES IN THE FIRST PLACE.THEY DONT HAVE TO MAKE ANY OF THEM SO STOP THE BITCHING AND JUST BE GLAD THAT U ARE GETTING 2HRS AND 02MINS OF IT. U ARE GOING TO LOVE IT ANYWAYS I KNOW IM.
  • jazzy_luvs_jakey
    I thought it was 135 minutes?? Well, that's what it says on this aussie website: http://www.readingcinemas.com.au/movies/movie.a... Twilight Saga: New Moon

    Confusing... I hope it is 135mins, even though it's only like an extra 13 mins. :P
  • Dammit.
    2hours waay too short.
  • cutesweetiezzz
    Haha, that's what I was thinking.

    4 hours would seem much better.
  • yehman92
    the megaplex theatres around here have it for 2 hours and 20 minutes. i wonder what the difference is.
  • Well, Twilight was what, an hour and 40 minutes? How much better would it have been with an extra 20 minutes or so? I'm happy with that. :)
  • linds
    no, actually twilight was the same exact length - 2 hours. which is kind of weird.
  • EmmettzGurl242
    That's awesome! I felt like Twilight was too short ( and a little too far from the books...), but now I can be truly hype for New Moon because it looks like it's almsot completely from the book and it's gonna be 2 hours! Yay! Novermber 20 can't come fast enough!
  • renesmeenumbur2
    yah i agreen wit all of u guys but theirs onli 1 day 4 hours 49 min &50sec left till the movie will be out yyaaayyy!!!!!!!

    @TeamKristen(L)RumpyPumpy:
    idiot. sigh
    its called quantitative data, so you cant round up, because that many sessions WILL NOT FIT into a day!!
    i'll give you the benefit of the doubt, because maybe they dont teach mathematics in england (joking). and dont call me a dumb american because im not american :p

    ...and it looks pretty awful...
