Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
If they keep things moving like they did during Infinity War, I don't think it will be a problem for me.

I have to plan my fluid intake that day very carefully.

I'm making a note not to drink anything for a couple hours before start time, and passing on the concession stand big gulp soda.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
if they just got rid of those looooong brooding shots
I'm not sure Terrence Malick knows you're allowed to leave those out.

Yeah, there aren't the predictable "Oh, yay, Arwen's on the screen, I can go pee" moments. I don't think I sat through the entierty of any of her scenes in the theatre after the first viewing.

Those shots are genuinely the only thing I remember from that movie. So maybe it's good that he left them in?

I want intermissions to come back for long movies.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I find most of Terrence Malick films eye-rolly (granted, I haven't seen Tree of Life, which is... YEP, over 3 hours long) but the man used to know how to include those long lingering shots *and* make it a reasonable length. Days of Heaven, which is gorgeous and which I still think is his best film, is like 90-something minute long.
Sigh. I found Infinity War pretty tiring (I didn't really care for it and had about 3x more fun watching Ant-Man and the Wasp to be honest) and fully expect to be exhausted watching Endgame.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I once sat through the director's (Bertolucci's) cut of 1900, which I believe came in at 4 hours 20 minutes ... there WAS an intermission.
