I worked at a United Artists theatre when I was in high school and to this day can't bring myself to pay for "movie food". The markup then, and now, is astronomical. The manager told me however that ticket sales don't keep the lights on, concession sales do. The ticket revenue goes to the studios and the sale of food goes to the theatre operators. I don't care who it goes to, $12 for a soda, popcorn, and small candy is just bad math.

some people thrive on being negative and very judgmental, clearly from your responses, it seems you are one of them.

I'm just amazed that people can't sit thru a 2 hr movie without having to eat a buffet. Could this be a reason why Americans are so fat??? I usually go to a early movie and then go out for dinner afterwards. I skip the overpriced snacks in the theater.

All this talk about movie theater smuggling and no one has brought up smuggling beers in. I used to bring 6 Rhinelanders into every movie. 2 breast pocket, 2 hand pocket, 2 pants pocket.

The good old days.

I smuggled in a whole pizza once. This was in Alaska where everybody had big parkas. Damn did it taste good.

I also used to bandit the movies: pay for one, stay for several. Now I can barely sit through one.
