Well I usually buy a drink or something so I can keep myself occupied. I will only get a snack if Im hungry but I usually dont because the stuff is pretty pricey and its usually not too good for your health. I rarely buy popcorn because everytime I eat it I get a real bad stomach ache and cant sleep at night.

Well, popcorn for me is a must for movies. Drinks, however, not so much because if I drink too much, I'd need to take a restroom break at least twice throughout the entire movie. Also, some movie theaters have arcades inside, which I don't really get because when I go to a movie theater, I expect movies only. Arcades should be kept in another store, not movie theaters.

I don't usually. Snacks are too expensive there and I'm just not the type of person who needs to be snacking constantly.
Sometimes I used to sneak food in, but really it was more for the thrill of sneaking stuff in than a need to be eating every few seconds.

Hello busky,
Truth be told, I am not in favour of buying snacks in the theatre complexes. These people overprice their items by about 3-4 times and then ban any outside food, so that the audience are in a way compelled to buy it from their stalls itself, within the complex. I think government bodies should step up before things go out of control.

I do not like to bring snacks with me in the theatres as I think it will only pollute the place and personaaly I will not feel good to sit in a place where there are too many snacks, it will prevent me to enjoy watching a movie.

I think it depends on the atmosphere. If you're going to the cinema, I recommend buying snacks from a local gas station or walmart. It's significantly cheaper and you will probably get -more- for your money. It's ridiculous how overpriced movie theatres can be. If you're going to a theatre to see a play or musical, then it would be better if you did not bring your own snacks. Most theatres prohibit food and drink, including gum. Sometimes those theatres will still sell food and drink during intermission though.
