Christopher Nolan (director of The Dark Knight trilogy and Inception) is making a new movie about wormholes and space. A poster was revealed today.

An official trailer will be unveiled with Godzilla. Until then, a teaser will have to do.
It's probably not right for me to get this excited about a movie when there's almost no details about it, but if this is going to be Inception but with wormholes, time travel, and alternate dimensions, I'm psyched.

If I can do that about Maleficent, you can do that about this. By the way, if you hightail it to DC, you can see the trailer now. ;)

The tagline makes me think this movie will be kinda like the end to 2001: A Space Odyssey.
 
And then we find out they're canonically connected.

Length isn't a bad thing by itself, because it's nice if there's a lots of cool stuff happening, but there was nothing cool happening in 2001 until the part where HAL turns evil.

That means you have to sit through two whole hours of people just talking and slowly moving through space and more talking and some lame technology and weird pointless questions and argh

It's a whole different thing from Lord of the Rings. Even the most boring (when relative to the others, ofc) part, the first half of Fellowship of the Ring, is way more interesting than anything in 2001. In the same two hours you have a (brief) massive battle, cool backstory on the ring, a quest, fighting with unkillable undead kings, and a horse chase scene.

tl;dr length is okay as long as cool stuff is happening during the length
 
I'm pretty sure 2001 was meant to be a very visual experience and relied heavily on atmosphere and visuals. You know, a movie can be fine without an action scene every ten minutes.
