Show me something that is worth the $40+ bucks that we spent the last time we went to the movies? Granted, I liked I am Legend.

The only movie that is even close is Cloverfield.

There is a reason I try to replicate the theatre experience at home. It is because of the damn prices.

Wow, that is a ton of $ to spend at the movies.

I can see three movies in a theatre in one day for less than that.

Are you a theatre hopper?

I can't go to the movies without snacks, and I'm not the type to smuggle them in.

Snuggling in a dark theater with you is worth WAY more than $40 bucks. Anytime.

And yes, I know we can do that at home. I like going to movies with you.

I'm not sure about Cloverfield any more. I was excited about it until a friend gave me some information. She said it's made by the same guy that made lost, and Cloverfield is going to be a 'you hear the mosters but don't see them for the whole movie' kind of deal. Since that's one of the things I found lethally retarded about Lost, I don't think I'd like Cloverfield if it were like that.

"lethally retarded"...LOVE IT. I may use that sometime.

It isnt smuggling them in if you are holding them in the Target bag full of snacks you just bought in plain to see sight. Down in North Phoenix at the AMC 30 I walk in with food and drinks every time and they have never stopped me yet. I was even told I could walk in with real food from one of the food places that are directly located in the same shopping center, even the Starbucks.

Most places aren't quite as accomidating. I know the movie theatre that I worked at in HS wasn't.

I started doing the same thing when someone I know who use to work at a AMC told me they were informed to not stop food or beverages from entering with the exception of alcohol and such.

-----I am not sure how true this next part is, so don't kill the messenger------

He said this was because back east at a Cinemark a dibetic lady was not able to bring in her snacks and went in anyways and ended up going into diabetic shock, so most theaters changes its policy according to this guy, but do not advertise it. He told me this about 3 years ago and I have been doing it since.

I tested it once the the AMC in Arrowhead. They stoped my with my subway and I said I was diabetic, they brought the manager over and he whispered something and they let me in and apologized. I then tried it at a bar with a bottle of water and they did not give, though they gave me a free bottle of water to replace it.
