bill_schubertWe don't go to many movies. All the reasons are obvious but one of the increasingly more important ones is that I need the bathroom and can't find the pause button.
Gone with the wind
The longest day
Ben Hur
Lawrence of Arabia
What do these three have in common? INTERMISSIONS!!
"Let's all go to the lobby, let's all go to the lobby.... "
We saw Dune and will see Dune part 2. So much better on a big screen.
And Mission Impossible .. whichever one we're on now.
And, tomorrow, Oppenheimer. 3 hours. No intermission.
Enter: runpee app.
Someone created an app that crowd sources the best time in a long movie to go to the bathroom. I looked at the Mission Impossible choice since I just saw it and their take was good. They had a decent time to miss 2 minutes of the movie.
There is even a timer function that you hit to start when the movie starts and it buzzes you 30 seconds before the scene you've selected to be the one that you miss.
Genius.
Some things the baby boomers just got right.
