If we want long movies in the cinema, we desperately need to re-introduce the intermission. Seriously, going to Avatar 2 was a nightmare I think for half the people who saw it because after 1 1/2 hours, your popcorn and drink are empty, your butt is starting to hurt and you need to pee from all that soda you just drank. This is just basic biology. Not only that, but a 10-15 break in the film provides another opportunity for concession sales, a massive positive for the cinema, and certainly one that could compensate for any schedule readjustments they may have to do. I simply can't see a negative to an intermission, for either the cinema's profits or for the customer's enjoyment of the experience. The lack of intermission makes going to the cinema for films of this length a net negative, especially with how much it costs. I think Avatar 2 may be the last film longer than 2 hours I actually bother to pay to see in the cinema. I'd describe the experience, especially with the awful, strange and distracting as hell frame rate jumps Avatar decided it needed, as more uncomfortable than enjoyable. I honestly wish I'd waited and just watched it from home on my 4K TV snuggled with a partner, lol.
