RunPee: Never Miss The Good Parts Again

RunPee is the kind of brilliant Web service that makes you wonder why it hasn't been thought of before. With all of the collective knowledge available to us on the internet, it's about time somebody harnessed it to tell us exactly when is the best time during Star Trek to get up, take a pee and grab a box of Swedish Fish.

It's only got listings for a few of the most recent movies, with most entries being jokes (one of the hazards of a user-submitted movie pee time site, we suppose). The only pee time for Hannah Montana: the Movie says, "Go home right after the previews and pee for as long as you please in the comfort of your own home. You wont miss anything." Ouch.

RunPee even tells you what you might miss if you head to pee for the three minutes after Captain Pike leaves the bridge on his way to Nero's ship. But don't worry, no spoiler alerts—it's scrambled until you request it to be shown. So browse the site without abandon.

And if you remember a great spot during Dance Flick for taking a break (like all of it, because you know you won't miss important plot points), submit it to the site. A network is stronger the more people are in it, so let's make this a can't-miss database for movie-goers everywhere!

Anyone who whips out their iphone's large, bright, distracting screen in the middle of a movie deserves to be pelted with all manner of available projectiles.

charmac, yes

although, just wear a diaper, chances are you won't even use it, but if you do you won't miss anything. Try it once and I promise you will thank me later. just for number one though, you don't want to squish around in #2 for an hour and a half. You think I'm joking but if you want to know how intellectual and smart it is just ask an astronaut

This would be useful if all the comments weren't facetious. It's the same joke over and over for most of the movies: "RunPee after.... 5 minutes and don't come back because the movie is awful!" Your example here, Angels and Demons, seems to be one of the few with an actual answer.

everyone is a hater! I just saw Star Trek and really wish I knew about this site beforehand.
Unfortunately it's built in flash and is not viewable on mobile devices, so you wont need to waste your gummie bears charmac!

The site needs a lot of work, from both design and development ends, but the idea is brilliant!
