Killers of the Flower Moon. (Kodi)

Ball achingly long so drinks at intervals are required.

Films Gone with the wind, Lawrence of Arabia, and Titanic justify three hours. Everything else is a 'ball ache.' (Great expression btw.)

Tbh despite what I said I didn't mind the length (stop it) as I could prepare in advance for it, paused and had drinks and was watching with others so it was pleasant enough albeit a gruesome topic. If I was welded to a theatre seat for that long not so much, I guess that was the problem with it being part funded by a streamer and dual release, could or should've been a short series.

Saw 'The Irishman' at a cinema last year and impressed myself not needing a piss during its 3hrs 29mins.

Ah, not that sort of prep. Bladder's usually ok unless it's very cold and then I have to piss like a dog while trying to walk one.

It's a film about back-stabbing, you'd enjoy it.

Do cinemas provide intermissions now or aren’t they a thing anymore?

No real need, most films are around 2hrs nowadays with only a few exceptions. Contractually theatres have to do what the studio(s) & filmaker want which is to show it without interuption.
