quite true.
I wonder if any of these people are related to the “ Where are all the movie goers? “ crowd.
Any number of movies are fun to watch but the movie going experience is awful. I avoid the cinema like the plague unless the film is certain to deter a younger crowd.
I don’t know about your area but in mine they have started introducing VIP theatres alongside the regular multiplexes to counter that problem. They serve food and alcohol in your seats so that eliminates anyone underage (read rowdy teens). The price is double a regular movie ticket which also keeps out the riffraff. The seats are bigger leather loungers with much more legroom. The washrooms are individual and have a real flower in a vase in them. Only been once for a freebie preview but it ain’t the old Bijou thats for sure. The trouble for me is it has to be a pretty darn special movie for me to drop $25 a ticket and nothing has yet come along to justify it.
