Bring back intermissions in movie theaters
Please… I feel like we as a society need this more than anything because what do you MEAN I’m supposed to sit through a three-hour movie (while drinking beverages??) without needing to pee

one of the many wonderful things about Suns Cinema in DC is that they have an intermission in which they play a video of dancing hot dogs

I love my small-town movie theater for this exact reason!

exactly. if the ballet and broadway musicals can do it why can’t a movie theater? I say justice for small bladdered beverage enjoyers!

YES! Intermissions are elegant and charming. I want egg cups, rotary phones, all of it.

I have never seen any showing or performance of anything that had an intermission that didn’t vastly improve my experience. sooo many movies where my experience was tainted by having to piss like a racehorse for the entire last hour

bisonspider I HATE IT SO MUCH like either having to use all of your power to hold it in and being completely on edge or having to calculate what part of the movie would be best to miss and trying to go as fast as you can… smh

Movies are only getting longer and if i am at the cinema hall i require a built in bathroom break and popcorn re-up

intermissions
Bring them back.
Just saw Seven Samurai (1954) for the first time and having an intermission only heightened the experience. Take a little bathroom break, buy another beer, settle back in the theater for even more samurai

Never changing
My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
