I went to a 3 hour movie 2 years ago and asked the ticket taker when the intermission would be so my late, middle age bladder could be relieved and he snidely told me that there are no intermissions in movies anymore....

I will wait for the blu-ray.

I made an exception and went to see all three of the LOTR trilogies, which didn’t SEEM long.

For the rest, I wait until someone buys them. Then I borrow them.

Those who saw “The Longest Day” in the theater may recall the English officer who is ordered to take a bridge and “hold until relieved”.

Sure enough, reinforcements come (led by Peter Lawford, IIRC and accompanied by a piper. As they march over the bridge, he officer smiles with relief at the camera and we heard an echoing voice-over “hold until relieved”.

Then came the Intermission.
