    i just watched War and Peace (for like the fourth time, it's really good), that's 7 hours long but it's well paced, and subdivided into normal film length chunks. but i absolutely could not have watched it back to back, it'd be murder, especially if you excised the connecting tissue at the beginning and end of each part.

    the removal of intermissions has actually happened with the extended cuts of the lord of the rings films. those were on DVD originally, and each film was broken up by the need to switch discs, a physically-imposed sort of intermission, but one nonetheless. but these days the whole damn things are on streaming and they are noticeably more interminable.
