    It’s been easily 15 years since anyone has checked my bag when I go to the movies. I think one of the teenagers working there asked once, I said no and he shrugged. They aren’t paid anywhere near enough to care, and usually the manager on duty is like 17.

    I always stop at the dollar store and grab snacks and drinks. Heck, I grab a burger or two and stuff even in that bag if I’m hungry enough. Literally nobody cares.

      I’m just too lazy. It’s a half hour drive to the cinema I usually hit. You want me to think far enough ahead to have food, take it on a 30 minute drive, and carry it into the theater. That’s just too much hassle.

      On the other hand I historically didn’t see value in snacks at a movie. However my kids finally got me hooked.

        Yeah usually the cinemas where I live are connected to a mall, do it’s easy to stop at the store and grab food at the food court
