im trying to figure out how to create an indicator to be shown at the beginning of my flash movies that indicates how much of the movie has been loaded, and how long you have to wait.

Hey! It's called a preloader! Type Flash 5+preloader+tutorial in any search engine...
Quite a few out there!

Here yo go :

onClipEvent (load) {
    _root.loaded0 = _root.getBytesLoaded();
    _root.total = _root.getBytesTotal();
    _root.time0 = getTimer();
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
    _root.time1 = getTimer();
    _root.iteration = Number(_root.iteration)+1;
    _root.loaded1 = _root.getBytesLoaded();
    _root.loaded2 = int(Number(_root.loaded1)/1000);
    _root.timesum = Number(_root.time1)-Number(_root.time0);
    _root.loadsum = Number(_root.loaded1)-Number(_root.loaded0);
    _root.avtimesum = Number(_root.timesum)/Number(_root.iteration);
    _root.avloadsum = Number(_root.loadsum)/Number(_root.iteration);
    _root.connectionspeed = int((Number(_root.avloadsum)/Number(_root.avtimesum))*10)/10;
    _root.percent = int((_root.getBytesLoaded()/_root.getBytesTotal())*100);
    _root.loadbar._yscale = Number(_root.percent);
    _root.timeleft = (int((Number(_root.total)-Number(_root.loaded1))/Number(_root.connectionspeed)/100))/10;
    if (_root.getBytesLoaded() == _root.getBytesTotal()) {
        _root.gotoAndStop(2);
    }
}
