No, it's not. It's only 40 minutes shorter. If it's true, then that's the runtime that "Dr. No" and "Goldfinger" have.
But I don't think, that it's true.

But I don't mind. You can make great movies that run 104 minutes.

what was i thinking? Ha Ha. But still there is so much going on in the movie I can't imagine that short of a movie

It's IMdB. The name has become synonymous with "crap". It's like that guy who claimed to have all those spoilers; he's probably making things up so that people will pay attention to him.

Besides, Forster has always maintained that the film will clock in somewhere around the two-hour mark. It won't be as long as CR, but it sure as hell won't be one hour and forty minutes.

He also says his source is:
It's about to go on sale in cinemas in UK this week. Inside knowledge

That's what they always cite: a relation working for EON or the distributor; I'm not sure if it's the same guy, but there was one user claiming a rough cut had a ninety-minute runtime and that the editors were hard-pressed to draw it out any further. However, it was entirely too soon for anyone to be seeing a rough cut as filming had only jsut finished. Likewise someone who was claiming that two friends saw the whole film because they were marketing a "Bond Girl" perfume; why the hell would two people unrelaated to the production see a whole cut of the film when they're marketing a product that they already have twenty-one established films to refer to?

The only people you should believe are Marc Forster, the producers Daniel Craig, and nyone who is actually a part of the production crew; none of this "my brother works for this guy who is a part of this process" stuff.

True... by the way the perfume guys read the script, they didn't see the movie.

They claim...

Yeah, I have to ask ... why the hell do they need to see the script to marke perfume? I mean, at most, the perfume might be placed witin a scene, but they' only need to see that particular scene to know how it plays out in case they want to work something of the like into their advertising campaign.

The QUANTUM OF SOLACE script is under heavy lock and key. I read somewhere that each copy is watermarked with the name of the person it was issued to, so tht if it shows up somewhere it should - like, say, the interweb - ten the porducers know who it belonged to. And they don't just leave the things lying around for anyone to find them, either; it wouldn't surprise me if all non-essential scripts (ie not the ones owned by the likes of Craig and Kurylenko and Amalric) had to be returned at the end of each day of filming, and that the actors of minor characters were only given the scenes they appear in and maybe the scenes imemdiately before and after so that they know what the general feel of their scene is.

So with all the security, why the hell would those two guys get to see the entire script? Given that it was a supposedly-negative review, I think someone was just stirring the pot.

IMDB credibity =

A 104 min running time is not impossible. Didn't Forster say in an interview that it would be under 2 hours no matter what?

That could easily mean 115 minutes.

Mister E, I respectfully disagree.
