Best Use Of The New Technologies. Ever.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 5 (UPI) -- A California movie buff's Web site purports to list the least-interesting chunks of currently playing films so audience members know the best time to go pee. Dan Florio's Web site, Runpee.com, which is also available as an iPhone application, suggests viewers of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" take a bathroom break 33 minutes in, when "Dumbledore says, 'Off to bed, pip-pip,'" or at the 1 hour, 37 minute mark, when "Harry invites Professor Slughorn to go and see Hagrid with him," the Los Angeles Times reported Wednesday. The Web site further helps moviegoers by allowing them to then view a synopsis of the scene they missed while hitting the head. Runpee.com offers similar services for "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," "Funny People," "Bruno" and several other movies currently playing in theaters.
Also leaving the seat down: The AP. It all seems to have started here.

There are just many movies where it would say that the whole movie is a not-to-be-missed peeing opportunity.
Not Peter Jackson movies, of course

We can cross NZ off the emigration list then. No free speech, no cultural refugees.

I dunno, the sanctity of the Man/Sheep bond is fully respected here.
