I want to see Project Hail Mary but I also don’t want to sit in a theater for two and a half hours.

@shac don't worry. It's not really 2.5 hours.

If you show up before the listed showtime there will also be about 30 minutes of ads before the movie starts.

So it's 3 hours easy.

@shac I am very firmly in the contingent of grumpy old people who believe that movies should have intermissions.

(And Marvel movies should have two.)
