Default Sneaking popcorn and drinks into movie theater...

Who else does it ?
With cost of tickets I make wife and I a bag of popcorn each and a bottle of water and we sneak them in ..... that would cost more than the tickets..

One of the many reasons we do movies in the home theater.

Screaming kids (brought in to rated R movies)
Expensive snacks
Uncomfy seats
Crappy sound (in many)

Nothing quite like bringing your own drinks/snacks to your basement to enjoy your flick and can pause anytime for refills.

I can't say I never have, but I just don't go if I can't afford to go.

Projector and screen at home makes it VERY difficult to justify being surrounded by idiots.

Not to mention the "pause" button

we haven't been to a theatre in about 8-9 years, and the last time we watched a movie at home (i recorded it previously, so we can zip thru the commercials), we both fell asleep. rewind, power thru.

downloading movies isn't doable via DSL (only option out here), and there is rarely one on DirectTV that we would want to catch.

we're boring.

We're not regulars to theaters by many standards since we go maybe a coupla times a year. The movie folks best get on a their game since there's only four months left for us to make our second movie this year. They got us with "Wonder Woman" so it's a pretty tall order yet.

Hell, just movies in general. I've only pirated, I think, two so far this year. One was called Idont****ingremember something the wife wanted and the other was Assassin's Creed.

I've been sneaking those little miniature bottles of liquor into theaters for decades. Just buy a 7up, then have a 7&7.

Me and my buddy jack Daniels used to go to the theatre together. Haven't seen him in years and haven't been to a movie in years. 70 inch tv and a big recliner and surround sound just makes it seem silly.

In addition, big bedbug scare here a while ago for movie theatres,
plus my hearing requires captions/sub titles......won't see those at the movies.
