They care about that, but not that every seat in my movie theater is either covered in nacho cheese, peeling leather and smells like sex and candy. Or that we have to sit through 25 minutes of previews that start at the time the show is supposed to start so it’s unavoidable.

From an accessibility perspective, making a film nearly 3 and a half hours long with no intermission makes watching in a cinema if you need to move because of blood circulation, back issues, access to the toilet, ect.

What I would like to know is why the director feels there can't be any intermissions, and has he considered the consequences? Genuinely curious why.

Also yes, of all the things to worry about when there are so many issues with projectors, audio levels, ect, this feels like small potatoes. However I suspect that's possibly the easiest thing to enforce.
