Fyc: Das Boot https://www.imdb.com/title/tt30970892/ (Iknow, the movie is already in the Top250. Just if you think they'd make a movie in real length, it would be a movie of 5h 9m.)

Or is it about cutting back to 2h, 3h, 3.5h? Where is the limit?

No, I didn't mean for the length to be cut. Including Das Boot could be a little confusing, but I'll think about it.

Das Boot already is in the Top250 at 80th place. They have cut mini-series down into the movie with a lenght of 2h 29m. My question was more about putting the whole 5h 9m of the mini-series into a new movie. Now I guess that wasn't your intention. I think depending on the content of the series, it might be a tough challenge to put a mini-serie into a movie without cutting it. Animal documentations may work, but when it comes to history - like the Stalin mini-series - it might be tough to cut it down even just half an hour. It's a good question, which might be suitable.

I wanna choose "The lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" but I'm sure most of the users disagree with me...

What everyone thinks shouldn't matter for your vote. I used to watch and enjoyed Rings of Power, I just stopped watching it when Amazon Prime started forcing us to watch ads for paying users effectively worsening their service. Other streamers did add ads, but they opened a new tier for new users and they respected previous users keeping the service we paid. Amazon Prime couldn't care less and so I protested by not watching them anymore. A shame because I wanted to know what came next.

Damn you, Peter! For making me choose between Erased, Over the Garden Wall, and Violet Evergarden. You are a monster for forcing me into this Sophie's choice. I picked Violet Evergarden.
