A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Rereading, I find myself wondering how they are getting multiple movies, let alone 3-hour ones.
Apparently they're including a lot of stuff with the indices and events that are only alluded to as happening off-screen (off page?). Basically it will also fill in the narrative between the Hobbit and the beginning of Fellowship. I know there's at least one Gandalf wizard thingie that they're filming but is only alluded to in The Hobbit proper.
So runpee.com is going to have lots of choices.
Seriously!
I actually think that runpee's recommendation is likely going to be: watch the first 30 minutes, go to the bathroom at any point before the last 30 minutes.
It's kind of sad not to have an automatic "Oh, there's Arwen, I can go pee now" signal.
edit: I have honestly never seen some of her scenes.
they have the technology to do it. I use an app called Into Now which when you point your phone at the TV, it can identify the tv program (show and episode) you are watching!
RunPee can do this with movies, easy.

Except that pointing your cameraphone at the screen in a movie theater will generally get you kicked out.
I think the RunPee app has a thing where you press a button when the movie starts, and if you have your phone on vibrate, it will go off at the designated pee moments.
(I haven't tried it, but I feel like I read something about it.)
jessica,
good point, but I only need to make sure sound gets to the phone, so I don't really need to point it at the tv at home. I can use Into Now if the tv is loud enough.
you'd probably need to turn the phone's screen brightness down though.
He really needed to do something small and speedy after LOTR and so far he hasn't.
Why? What does this do?
And yes, runpee does what Steph says--vibrate goes on (there are still viewers who will be disturbed by this--I got a guy pretty angry when I saw a movie while on call) and then you can read what happened before you come back to your seat.
