I would be fine doing without one, since I know the strategy of holding it (no caffeine before, go before movie starts, light sips of the drinks while watching, go as soon as the mid-credit scene finishes and come back for the post-credit scene, etc.).

I'm pretty sure he meant sleep, not... OTHER bodily functions.

I'm actually cool with the runtime. While I don't think I've sat in the theater for that long in one sitting, I can pretty much keep myself awake without the need for coffee, and use the bathroom just prior, so I should be fine. Plus, it's a Russo Bros MCU film, so the copious amounts of action will easily spring me to life even if I DO feel like falling asleep. Even on a pure filmmaking level I think a Peter Jackson-esque runtime is a smart move, as it gives ample room for development and closure.
