    People spend $60+ to go to overpriced movie theaters to eat some food and watch a movie ONCE with a friend or family for about 2 hours, only to no longer have access to it immediately afterwards.

    Nobody cares.


    People spend $60+ to play a game for potentially tens or hundreds of hours and there’s a chance they might not have access to it years down the road when they likely have forgotten about it anyway.

    Everyone loses their fuckin minds.

      What’s going on with your cinema pricing, I don’t think I’ve ever paid more than £6 for a ticket

        The ticket is the cheap part ($8-20, give or take). It’s like $20 for some popcorn and a drink, much more if you get something more substantial.

          That’s not really part of the film though. Just go a couple of hours without eating or bring your own food if it’s that expensive, right?

            To be fair, a lot of movie theaters ban bringing in outside food. At least in my experience. I agree with just not eating though. It would certainly be healthier to decouple moviegoing from snacking.

              Almost all I’m aware of are fine with it as long as it’s not hot or alcoholic, and I assume that’s for safety

                Might be a UK thing. Here in the US I don’t think I’ve ever been to a theater that allowed any outside food or drink. I doubt it’s because of safety, I’m pretty sure it’s because it would cut into their profits from concession stand sales.
