They used to have intermissions!

They did? Bring them back.

They did, but it was mostly to boost snack sales (the long-time moneymaker of theaters).

Let’s all go to the lobby, let’s all go to the lobby, let’s all go to the lobby to get ourselves a treat!

The little boy takes a bite out of a chocolate bar and it stretches like a piece of taffy.

It was great. You could even get little pots of ice cream during them.

I remember when I was a wee lad, we went to see Titanic, and the movie was so long they showed it in two parts!

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Musical theatre and opera still do!

[–] CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world 8 points 2 hours ago

And non-musical live theatre too!

Wonder if the studios said they can't have them anymore. Would be cool if a theater brought them back. Probably have tons of people just leave when the movie is bad.

[–] CombatWombat@feddit.online 2 points 1 hour ago

I have to assume it's studios -- movie theaters make most of their money selling concessions, and intermissions are great for that.
