OK, it hasn't even opened theatrically, but this past Sunday's NY Times had this bit of information:

" Having spent five months on location, working from a 260-page screenplay (almost twice the usual length), Sir Ridley ended up with a movie of 3 hours 40 minutes. This version will survive on DVD, but for general release he cut the film to 2 hours 22 minutes."

although Scott use of widescreen imagery is really best seen on the largest screen possible.
