Just wondering if anyone has any "Rituals" at the movies.

I always try and seat myself in the middle of the theater middle row.

When I'm not sneaking a Diet Coke in the theater I buy a Big Root Beer and Nachos.... mmmmm nachos!

If someone ends up sitting behind me and talks threw the previews I get really mad and all i can think about during the movie is that guy who keeps talking. [Example: In Potc3 when the little boy is hung and drops the Coin.. a guy behind me says to his friend loudly "TAILS" that all i could think about the entire movie]

1) Get to the theater early.....

2) .... to ensure seats in the very center of the theater and.....

3) ... to load up on goodies. Always a soda, large popcorn and Snowcaps (if they don't have Snowcaps I'll get a Nestle something or other.)

4) ....I save the popcorn for the actual movie and eat the candy thru the previews.

If anyone talks behind me I am sure they know it's not cool, if that dosen't work I ALWAYS get the manager. ALWAYS. There is no getting away with be a jacka$% around me when I go to the films.:cool:

I avoid eating or drinking anything too. Just hate having to go to the bathroom and miss parts of the movie. If I do get something, it's almost always Junior Mints. Mmm...

Center seats are a must, but if those are taken, then I'll move up. Hate front seats. My neck won't forgive me since I last watched LotR in the very first row.

Armrests, I need 'em so I tend to hog them. Other wise I fidget during the movie since I feel uncomfortable.

Middle seats
no food
occasional drink
a good long uncomfortable stare will shut up most people (if they have any respect for themselves in public)
Also an armrest hog, can't concentrate without 'em, too uncomfortable

I usually smuggle in soda. No food. Poopin' during the movie is bad.

Usually sit in the front row because one of our friends is a douche about it. "If I wanted the screen to look normal size I'd rent something! I want it too look big!"

Middle Middle
No food/drink
wee wee before start

I actually wish I could go to a no food allowed theater. I find all the munching, crunching, crinkling, box crumpling, noises so distracting....

Maybe that's why I watch 95% of the movies I see, at home.

1. Spark up with friends before leaving home
2. Get to the theater and see if we can get in for free (a lot of friends work at our theater)
3. Use the restroom
4. Get a huge bottle of water
5. Find the exact middle seat in the exact middle row, and relax. :D

* As soon as I walk into the theater I say "Buuuurrrrr!" and put on my Totally Rad hoodie. :)
* I always sit behind the bar (the one they usually have in place of seats so people in wheelchairs can sit), even if it's not in the middle of the theater. I like to put my feet up.
*Turn cell phone off.


That's it.

I always go by myself at odd times where there is usually only 2-3 other people watching movie, and I sit in the front top sextion of my theatre. I buy chocolate covered raisins and XLARGE Dr. Pepper.

I usually get an end seat because if I take my daughter, she's going to have to pee at some point..never fails!

Always have to go early on the first day if possible.
Then go up to the very top where there are leather seats and sit in the middle.
Don't buy any food/drink to distract me.
Hold pee and destroy bladder for entire movie if necessary.
