We're all mad here.
I've seen the 6 hour A&E version several times though (the one with Colin Firth) and that's pretty much the standard I use. It sort of ruined the newer movie for me because it felt like things were moving too fast. Mr. Darcy's proposal scene in the mini-series is easily twice the length or more of the one in the 2005 film, and I could get away from the impression that people were speed-acting to make everything fit in the shorter time.

Of course, that's probably a lot of my own bias. I often do things while watching a movie, and it would seem that I missed huge plot points in the 2005 film because I would look down at something I was working on, and look up again and thing "holy crap, how did we get here already?"
