Swiss Cinema: In Swiss cinemas, monitors were installed in the toilets so that visitors did not miss a movie when they left the hall for the restroom.

1. I wonder wich Cinema because I never saw this

2. This will cause looong lines at the toilets.

3. Isn’t that Sihlcity? If it is and if I remember right, it doesn’t show the movie, it just shows ads.

4. It actually only diplays ads, and should prevent people from missing the toilet while peeing because they are leaning down to watch the ad. There is also one above every urinal which serves the same purpose.

5. And when you try to look into it, I suppose you find out that “Swiss cinemas” is one particular theater that did it for 6 months some time in 2012.

6. Some chains have had smaller ones on pissoirs for ages, but it’s just to show trailers and normal ads on.

7. We usually get a break at the half of the movie, i never saw this l any cinema

8. But I’ll still miss a bit of the movie on the way to the toilet. I’ll rather wait for an intermission

9. There are some (and I believe those exactly) at the Arena Cinema in Geneva. It doesn’t show any movie, just the ads. And I haven’t seen those screen showing anything in the last year at least.

10. There’s no way I’m not pooping on that screen…

11. Watch dudes race to the bathroom right before the sex scenes.

12. This would rely on each screen having dedicated toilets. Unless it’s a smaller cinema with only one screen

13. Its in Arena in Geneva

    Also actually it’s ads and trailers, not the movie

14. I swear I can sit on the pot and watch the whole movie.

15. Its the Arena cinemas in Zurich.
    But they dont show the movies only trailers

16. I want this at home

17. I do that at home with Netflix

18. Bi üs hets das oo, aber nur uf de pissoir. Wennde e frou bisch, oder eifach muesch schiisse, hesch (wortwörtlech) verkackt.

19. so what? ofcourse!

20. this was in one of the cinema in Geneva. also they removed it since then. I guess people where bootlegging the toilets or some shit.

21. 🍀from 🇨🇭.. In my opinion that’s totally useless, toilet is not for spending time useless.. And imagine buying something from toilet TV commercials 🤣🤣.. Gruss aus der Schweiz
