45:08 I mean, if I had to sit down and watch Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, I wouldn't be in misery, whereas I feel like if I had to sit down and watch the second one, Beneath, I'd be in misery. So, let's just be clear: your qualifications for reaching number 3 on this list-- In misery! --you wouldn't be in misery if you had to watch it. I'm starting to wonder-- That's a high standard! So I'm wondering, as I made this list, I'm kind of wondering; I love the franchise, but the movies don't speak to that.

Matt plays a clip from № 30 Top 5 Sci-Fi Theme Songs where Ben agrees to watch the entire franchise with him.
