2 Minute Video. 50 Minutes Upload Time.

That's cool I guess...I told all of my Twitter followers that it was coming out at 7:30 and then I see "48 minutes remain". My internet chose to be a mug at the right time eh?
 
Check the filesize. My first guess would be a mis-rendered video causing the filesize to be 3x or 10x bigger than you were expecting...
 
Most likely youtube is being a hoe, because my internet is generally fine with upload speed. There is a storm and the internet was kinda whacky last night, nevertheless...my video is up!
 
Also, make sure nothing else you are doing is making use of your upload resources. For example, if you had an application such as uTorrent up which is constantly downloading, and uploading to seeders and peers, this would not allow YouTube to take full advantage of your upload resources: Resulting in longer upload times.

As Flammy stated, sometimes if you do not render the file correctly (whether it's your settings or your computer made a mistake), the file size could be way larger than intended. Length is not always proportionate to file size, it just tends to follow that pattern, so make sure you check that out.

YouTube could just be being a pain for you as well :p
 
i know how you feel my last video had a 5 hour upload that was 5 hours were i could not play any games online it was hell lol
 
lol ive had worse... my internet is crap yet i still dont care and make my vids 1080p coz im all about quality and dont mind waiting. :D
