Is There an End-Credits Scene in "Avatar: The Way of Water"? Here's the Deal

According to Empire Magazine, the current run time for "Avatar: The Way of Water" is "coming in at around three hours." Director James Cameron defended the movie's long length in an interview with the outlet, saying, "I don't want anybody whining about length when they sit and binge-watch [television] for eight hours . . . I've watched my kids sit and do five one-hour episodes in a row. Here's the big social paradigm shift that has to happen: it's okay to get up and go pee." According to IMDb, the exact run time is 3 hours and 12 minutes.

The first "Avatar" movie clocked in at two hours and 42 minutes, so the sequel's run time shouldn't be a huge surprise to viewers.
