We’re Adding Classic Movies to the RunPee Database

Because of Covid19 there aren’t any new blockbusters being released in theaters right now, but there’s plenty of old classic movies that we can rewatch and add to the RunPee database. We’d love it if you fired up the RunPee app to check out our Peetimes and let us know what you think of our choices. (Picking Peetimes is a skill. We have to practice just like anything else.)

All the movies in the photo above ARE at drive-in theaters if you’re lucky enough to have one near you. Go out and support them.

Note about classic movies in the RunPee app: you’ll have to use the built in Search feature in the app to find old movies. Just tap on the menu icon at the top-right and select “Search.”

Selecting Peetimes for iconic movies is, on the one hand, easier than doing it for new movies, simply because we know these old movies like the back of our hand. However, it’s more difficult too, because these are iconic movies and every scene is precious. This is what makes it good practice for us. In fact, when someone requests to join the Peeps — the group name for those who pick Peetimes — the first thing I ask them to do is pick one of their favorite movies to rewatch and select Peetimes. Then we discuss their choices and what inspired them to pick the Peetimes they did.

Brilliant idea with great information

I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

Dan Gardner

Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂

Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
