"Whaaaaa theaters are so expensive nooowww! It costs so much for popcorn and drink-"
Bring your own.
Are you people idiots? Just bring your own snacks, it's that simple. Every time people complain about theater pricing, they are always including the cost of concessions. Just don't buy them.
Most theaters do not give a single fuck if you bring in outside food, as long as you're not obnoxious about it. And for those theaters that claim to care, I guarantee you the people checking tickets are not paid enough to give a shit.
Last time we went to the theaters, it cost $30. That's it. We brought in massive burritos and drinks from a local Mexican restaurant and enjoyed ourselves. Don't bring loud, smelly, or messy food and there s literally zero problem.
Pick one, LOL.
Meanwhile here in the Netherlands smaller cinemas stopped selling food in general, and instead have a bar (often serving pizza) and don’t allow cooked food into the screening itself and somehow cinemas are packed.
