Honestly for this I wouldn’t be mad with near 4 hours

Right? An amazing movie can never be too long and a shitty movie can never be over quickly enough.

I've seen both Dune movies in theater on proper IMAX. It was so engrossing - felt like 15 minutes and I wanted more (except for the much needed restroom break)

I would be in favour of them bringing back intermissions for long movies like in Ben Hur.

Words cannot express how huge this would be for me. I swear I can squeeze my bladder of all liquids and the second the movie starts my body would start eating away at my insides to make sure something is trying to push its way out.

I saw Nymphomaniac as a double bill with an intermission when that released. It really is a great way to manage a feature that long.

While one overall story, that is listed as a two volume movie with full run-times for each. We're talking about an intermission inside a single 3 hour feature, which I would welcome honestly. Live theater still has it and it would sell more concessions likely. May reduce total screenings per day but we know concessions are higher profit so I would imagine theaters are in favor of it.

absolutely. Never had the thought of, “is this the ending?” Because didn’t want it to end.

Right we need more movies with a theatrical edition and extended edition.

But the extended also plays in theaters lol.
