Sneaking things into the movies?

Don't worry, I didn't say anything about you while you were gone. Well I guess if you're starting off this quick, we can expect a more permanent vacation from you two before long. Enjoy your time here while it lasts! :)

Decent effort but lacking in originality, I give it a 6.5/10
 
No wonder a lot of Americans are obese. Candy and snacks I can understand but pizza and chicken and tacos and such food it's wrong. Here in Sweden the theaters only sell popcorn, candy , snacks and soft drinks. Eating food you do at home or in a restaurant.
I only sneak in a bigger coca cola or potato chips.
 
For a friends' birthday, we snuck in a couple bottles of wine, a mickey of rum and a few beers. Made the really, really crappy Katie Holmes flick much easier to forget.
 
Back in the mid-to-late '90s, back when I had no car, I had to ride the bus and/or walk to get anywhere. So, my backpack became my constant companion when I was out and about on my days off. I'd carry my Walkman (yes, it was so long ago, we still listened to music on CASSETTE TAPES!!! ;)), books to read on the bus, anything I purchased along the way. And if I was going to the movies, I'd either A) go to the Kmart near the theater, buy a bag of freshly popped popcorn at their snack bar for a buck, get a couple cans of soda for 25¢ each out of their vending machine and throw the whole lot into my backpack to take in with me, or B) pop microwave popcorn at home and bring with me, then pick-up the sodas at a vending machine on the way, and walk right in, having my theater snacks for quite a bit less than what the theater charged! :cool

Then came the events of September 11th, 2001... and the movie theaters now had the only excuse they needed to ban backpacks outright, or at least demand the right to inspect their contents. Since then, the only things I've been able to sneak in were whatever would fit in the large pockets of my trench coat... usually a bottle of soda and some sort of chips. The best snacks for that purpose were Torengos Tortilla Chips and Frito-Lay Go Snacks... both of which were discontinued several years ago. :unsure
 
I snuck in a 6-pack of IPA& two 22 oz. bottles with a friend and drank a bottle every time Jack Sparrow mentioned Rum.I had to pee so bad by the end of the film...I was dancing out the doors when the credits rolled.
 
I don't usually sneak in anything, nor do I usually buy anything either, but on the rare occasions where I sneak in some candy I always by a large soda to offset my guilt.

I would love to, but they price everything so insanely high.

This is usually what I do. I don't sneak food or buy it. But, when I do sneak something I'll usually get a drink or popcorn to offset.
 
I dont ever get the "support your theater" talk when as already mentioned the Disney'esque price gouging and lack of all around quality of the food and theater are tacked upon that price. Pre popped popcorn with some oil coating, an extra large box of whatever candy that has a normal sized box of contents, a half gallon sized soda cup full of half a gallon of ice, and those horrid nachos and its smell of someones stomach bile... The theater experience died years ago and it wasnt home theater that killed it, its the price vs quality that did. Thats why I dont go to theaters. On the rare occasion I do go, its with passes. Wheres Mr Pink when you need him.
 
i snuck in loads of food under my top and when the ticket guy asked what it was, i told him i was pregnant, he laughed and let me in anyway, haha, score!
 
I'll agree with the support your local theater sentiment. You go the the theater for an experience - you go for the big screen (digital if you're lucky), surround sound (dolby digital?) and you go for the latest releases (or maybe you hit the "dollar show")...

I do believe that the cost of the concessions does help offset the cost to get the new releases.

But, the rate at which they gouge us just seems unneccessary and overboard. $3 for a bottle of water that costs me .20?!?! How much does a bag of popcorn actually cost? It's the captive audience and consumer... they have us where they need us and we're 'forced' to buy... even after we've purchased a ticket for $8.50.
 
I had a buddy who used to sneak a hand job in during the movies from his GF more then once by getting a large bucket of popcorn, cutting a hole in the bottom, sticking his **** in, and the GF's hand went in after.:eek:confused :confused:lol

It gave a whole new meaning to buttered popcorn, needless to say I didn't eat any popcorn if offered.:sick :confused
