Braveheart isn't over 3 hours long. It's only 177 minutes.

Neither is The Godfather which is 175 minutes.

BTW -If you want as a moderator I can put Seven Samurai, Once Upon A Time in America, and Deer Hunter on there (and/or take The Godfather off).

Lawrence of Arabia is a very close second, but I'd say Gone with the Wind.

I voted for The Godfather, Part II, since the criterion is "Best". Spartacus is my favorite film on this list.

Magnolia better than Schindler's List? I'm not thinking so. I know they're opinions, but sometimes opinions are just plain wrong.

Schindler's List is one fine movie. In fact all of these on the list are. I voted for Magnolia, so you are saying im wrong. Please take a look at the rules around here before you post again.

First of all, I didn't insult anyone on the board, and if you have read any of my previous 1500 posts, you would see that 95% of my comments are tongue-in-cheek. I'll thank you to not tell me how or when to post. I know the rules well, and refrained from disrespect. And yes, it is my opinion that you are wrong.

I voted for Magnolia (10/10)

Heat (9/10) was originally 188 minutes long so if you had put that in the poll, it would come second.

The rest of the ratings for the movies I have seen go something like this :

The Godfather (8/10)
The Godfather Part 2 (7/10)
Schindler's List (8/10)
JFK (9/10)
Malcolm X (9/10)

The Godfather isn't over 3 hours, but I voted for it anyways

Best 3+ hour movies
1.The Godfather Part II 10/10
2.Schindler's List 10/10
3.JFK 10/10

All in my all-time top 10

No problem. But yeah, it did come across as fairly nasty. Sorry if I did the same. But Schindler's List still has it all over Magnolia.;)

I voted for The Godfather Part II. However, if you would have put in Heat in the poll... that would have been my choice.

Well Heat fell short of three hours also 175 I think. Godfather II is the best of the 3+ hour movies.

i dunno. Malcom X is good and so is Heat. The director's cut of Dogma maybe.

I voted for Schindler's List, but I certainly would have picked Titanic if that were up there...

Spielberg's masterpiece of course, the most chilling three hours I've ever sat through... twice... 6 years apart... tied with Coppola's masterpiece that surpassed the original "The Godfather Part II"

How could you leave out the masterpiece APOCALYPSE NOW (redux)??????????????????????????????


OH, and out of that list, JFK wins hands down.....

SCHINDLER'S LIST. It doesn't get any better than that.

Sorry, but Magnolia is the only plus three-hours film that had me captivated the entire way through. There was no, "I need to turn this off and take it up" later debate. I wanted to see that movie through until the end. I can't say that about any of the other films.

I won't say what i voted for, i just tried to even the films out to my liking (i always try to even the films out)....

OK, Go ahead and take off Godfather and add those three others.

All of these are excellent films, but Magnolia is probably the only one I can watch the entire way through without having to pause and get up, it's that fascinating.

Voted for Godfather part 2, just because I haven't seen Seven Samurai in a while. Those two are the best of the list.

On that list, The Godfather Part 2.

But where the hell is the extended edition to Fellowship of the RIng?
James Logan

Very, very tough choice. I went with LAWRENCE OF ARABIA, just ahead of SCHINDLER'S LIST.

Titanic and Dances With Wolves.

Er..... I can't vote. Neither are on that list.

But LOTR is 2:59 minutes ;)

I voted for The Godfather Part 2, but it barely edges out Once Upon a Time in America, a damn near masterpiece
