Imagine you are in the cinema, and you need to pee, but if you go, you’re going miss a part of it, maybe an important one, so having the option of pausing is a wonderful feature. Besides, you have a variety of food, snacks. Who’s up for an Ifood? Do you want to watch a movie and eat something different from popcorn and candies?
