New Delhi: Runpee.com is, at the bare minimum, an ingenious idea. The website tells you exactly when you can dash from the movie hall to the loo during a film. The people behind Runpee have created an online database of films, new and classic, with possible loo break times marked out.

Break points are chosen for moments when nothing of note happens during the film or an inconsequential sub plot is afoot.

The Runpee database tells you when to dash and also gives a brief synopsis of what you’ll miss. And if you have an iPhone the Runpee app will gently vibrate to alert you to break times.

For a quick demo of the website see the latest PlayStream episode.
