The first draft of this is completed. It's 83 scenes long.

PNQ: How long should a fiver really be before it's officially too long? Or is it impossible for a fiver to be too long as long as it's funny?

I suppose something to consider is the differing length of the source material. After all, it's not unreasonable for a movie fiver to be twice as long as a television episode fiver. And if done casually Ocarina of Time does take about ten hours to finish. So does it deserve to have a fiver that's supersized?
