Who's forcing you to buy popcorn and drinks? I can't remember the last time I bought concessions and I go to a lot of movies.

Porn theaters with sticky seats don't count.

I dip the entire time when I'm at the movies.
Saves a shite-ton of money.

I prefer movie beer in baton rouge, and they have the fancy chairs

Tenders and pizza is cheaper than a large popcorn? Sounds like a no brainer.

Me too

I'll buy a drink occasionally but rarely any food.

Capitalism - nobody is putting a gun to your head and making you eat popcorn.

I like putting a snocap on my dhole and making my chick nibble it off before I give her any popcorn.

You do realize that's their only source on income right?

Theaters don't make money off ticket sales

I don't mind going to the movies every now and then. I think they're more fun for little kids than for adults, but I much prefer to watch a movie in my own home so long as I have a decent setup.

Most people that go to the movies and buy consessions often are either high schoolers who have no concept of how much money is worth, or they are trashy people who are 30 thousandaires and never want to admit that things are too expensive or they have no self control.

Who buys popcorn and cokes the movies still?

You have Alamo Drafthouse in Houston. Their popcorn and drinks are cheaper, and overall movie experience is way better. Quit your bitching.
