Do you prefer to buy snacks first or not before going in the theater?

hello, when i was younger, we have a habit of buying our snacks before we enter the cinema...we bring the foods there, basically its just potato chips, or popcorns and softdrinks! then we are eating while watching the film...hehe its like having a picnic inside...hehe but that was before.... and that was when i am with my mom...hehe coz my just just loves eating while watching any movie, whether at home or at cinema... but now, when i go watch a movie with my husband, usually, we just eat first outside before going to the cinema...you know, he's a type who watch a movie seriously..hehe meaning he don't like to do other things while he' watching....but sometimes i can't take it, i still buy some snacks even if we already have our snack outside...hehe

I never buy at the theater. It can cost 40.00 bucks now a days to go to the show... It just not worth it.

When I go to the movies I usually will bring my own candy in my pocketbook to munch on during the movie. The movies are expensive as it is then they want you to spend another 10.00 for popcorn and a drink. It's ridiulous. If I don't bring anything to the movie then I wait till after the movie to go out and eat. When they bring down the prices maybe I would consider buying something at the theater. I don't think though that will ever happen. Everything goes up in price and nothing comes down.

I always buy snacks before the show starts.. and I eat it the moment I take my seat in the theater. lol. usually, my popcorn won't really last.. it's only until the first like 15 minutes of the movie, and then after that, I won't have anything to eat anymore, and I would just be focused on the movie. hehehehe. I have this favorite popcorn store in my favorite theater, and I always buy the same thing everytime I watch a film.

Hi Mobhomeir, Frankly speaking, I seldom buy a snack to the cinema. Only once a while, I will get a popcorn and coke as my appetizer. I used to be a movie maniac when I was single. Most of the time when I was out for dating, cinema is the place that we were visited.I watched any kind of movies. Having a snack in the cinema is not really compulsory. I prefer to concentrate on the story when I was in cinema. Noawadays, I never been to cinema after I have given birth to my son. Since I am taking of him full-time,I just can' t find any free time to visit a cinema again and slowly, I am not addicted to cinema anymore.

watching a movie is a big treat for me and i don't want to be disturbed or get distracted of getting up and buying anything for snacks. So before entering the movie house, i already have some snacks for myself. most of the time it's popcorn, fries and juice.

I haven't had popcorn at the movies in 25 years. But back when I did, we always got to the theater early. Got our tickets and got out popcorn and drinks and were the first people in our seats . We would finish the popcorn Before the movie started.These days I don't get popcorn. I see the film and then go to lunch afterward.

hello mobhomeir, i prefer to buy snacks first before going in the theater. this way, i don't need to stand up in the middle of the movie. and i don't like to miss any part of it. besides, my kids like to eat at once.

I love watching movies. If I'm not that hungry, I just buy popcorn or chips and watch the movie. Sometimes, we just eat after watching the movie.

Well, I don't want something to interrupt me while I am watching a movie. So, if I need to buy something I will definitely do that before getting inside the theater. I will never go out in the middle of the movie. Because I believe missing a part of a movie just result in missunderstanding while you interpret it later on. And quite frankly, I don't feel comfortable eating while watching a movie, I just drink not eat. =)

i buy snacks first in the grocery counter since foods and snacks in the theater counter are so expensive, it doubles the price.

I haven't gone to a theater in awhile, but when I did we would usually either take something in or not have anything at all. You usually aren't allowed to take something in so we would sneak it in sometimes. The cost of the show is high enough, but the concession stand prices are worse. You could go broke if you had a large family, and kids can't understand that the prices are just too high.

I like to have my popcorn and soda when I go in...a movie doesn't really feel like a movie with out the popcorn. :-)

I would prefere buying the snacks before the movie starts. If you go to buy stuff in the middle of the movie you will miss a part of the movie, and well i simply wouldnt want to leave.

Depends. We often go to the movies right after a meal, so we don't want any snacks then. But if we go in the middle of the afternoon, we often get snacks before the movie starts. Never in the middle - wouldn't want to miss anything. Sometimes we go out for ice cream afterward also.

I rather buy snacks and eat it after watching the movie. Because I really don't want to be bother eating while watching a movie. I want to focus myself on the story so that I can fully absorb the story and have its special effects for example in a science fiction films, truly be appreciated....

it depends, one thing that i try and not get is a drink because most of the time i end up having to go to the bathroom half way through, so what i will do is get like some gummy bears or something and i will stal like one sip of my boyfriends drink when im finished them, so this way im not drinking a lot and having to go to the washroom and i am not thirsty either. and i always buy them before i dont like having to get them at any other time. Happy Mylotting

I prefer that I buy snacks before going to the movie house. My favorite by the way is popcorn or French fries. As I was saying, I prefer it that I have everything I need before I enter the cinema since I don't like the idea of skipping any scene on the movie. I also hate going to the bathroom so as much as possible, I try not to drink a lot of soft drinks (softdrinks) or bottled water whenever I am watching to avoid that.

I prefer to buy snacks during the intermission.When it comes to watching a movie in big screen,i always choose to get tickets for the evening shows.It is because after watching a movie,one can always have an option of having dinner outside.Offcourse,if watching a movie in a multiplex i do have snacks in between if they serve,but never i go at the middle of the show.

You have to have popcorn and candy first! We eat popcorn during the previews, then open our candy after the movie starts, and when we're finished with that, eat more popcorn!
