Re: scene length..
The obvious answer would be D for both. But due to time constraints I'd say either B or C.

Re: scene length..
I think that should vary by the scene. If you can grab interest, tell the story, and come to an ending, then you've done your job. In general, longer will be more fun, but in that I prefer "stuck" to "drowned", it can take a LONG time without being a bother.

Re: scene length..
I think the answer depends upon your definition of "the scene." Let's take "Tarzan's Hidden Jungle" for example. The quicksand scene is about two minutes long, but the build-up, with Vera Miles getting lost, is about 10 minutes. It is the prelude that makes this the best scene ever. I think each scene has to be judged on its merits individually. Having said that, the slower the sink, the better.
