Daft Punk’s Electroma. Good f*cking god, it was like a solid hour of a robot walking through the desert. -Girhinomofe -
3.
Wonder Woman 1984. Can’t believe I’m not seeing this mentioned already. Edit: I'm not just hating on it; the OP's scenario literally happened. I remember checking how long was left, and saying "jesus christ, for real?" when there was nearly an hour to go. -Grantagonist -

Black Adam. I know it was only 2 hours, but to me it felt so much longer. -Logical_Garlic_4548 -
5.
The Eternals. It would've been better as a Disney+ show. Even at such a long runtime, it felt like they tried to cram in too much. -CWRules -
6.
In the criterion classic Freddy Got Fingered, towards the end of the movie, there's a big crowd scene with people holding signs welcoming home the heroes. One of the signs reads "When the f*ck is this movie going to end?* -turboiv -

Full Metal Jacket is an hour long film about the depersonalization of soldiers, followed by another hour long film about the dehumanization of the Vietnamese during the war. -at_the_matinee -

The Irishman. 3.5 hour run time was a little long for one sitting. -firecow745 -

That Zach Snyder Justice League. Was all excited to see it then about 2 hours in was checking how long it had left. It was about an hour. I never finished it LOL. -NoBenefit5977 -

Hateful 8. That movie is one long-ass conversation. But in a good way. -krediot -

The extended versions of the Lord of the rings. Didn't realize how much additional footage there was. Amazing though. -Pmabbz -
12.
Gone Girl. In my defense, I knew nothing about it and thought it was a romcom/chick flick. -Bean_Juice_Brew -
13.
Thor: Love and Thunder. When we saw how much time was left, we just shut it off. -Gathose1 -
14.
Pearl Harbor. There's the climactic attack on Pearl Harbor. It's explosive and tragic. So many people getting hurt and killed. And then ... the movie slows down. And keeps going. For another hour. UGH. -Snoo-35252 -
15.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl. Not in a bad way. I just remember feeling like I was watching the climax and then it kept going. -We-keep-meeting -
16.
Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker. 92 minutes in I wanted this shit show to be over. -Pilsberry22 -
17.
The sound of music. They get married and I said “that was a nice ending” and my wife says “the Nazis haven’t arrived." -Davicitorra -

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, it was just a lot of filler. -INI75 -
