Perhaps people don't care to see 3 hour movies in a theater, but would rather see one at home on DVD?

hmm no offense, but if those are the best examples he can give... he is whining.

No Ebert? No Maslin? No one who is on TV anywhere?

Besides, a 3h39m movie isn't good for the family, dates, people with jobs, people that have to get home before dark.......

I looked on line and most of the comments say it is too long, needs an editor, needs to be trimmed, too long, needs to be cut down, too long, ponderous, too long...etc etc

Also most reviews seem to say that the dialog makes a Schwartenegger movie look like a David Mamet film.

The fact that people don't want to sit in the movies for four hours is a universal complaint. After what I've read, I am not going to see it in the movie theaters. I'll buy the DVD or something.
