I people, i like to eat and drink at the cinema, i take all the time things like pop corn or chips, and to drink something like coca cola, fanta or tea with tast of lemon, but i eat such things only when i'm at the cinema , when i'm watching a movie at home o don't have the wish to eat popcorns or drink coca cola. Maybe is the atmosphere of the cinema. What about you? do you liek to eat and drink at the cinema? what i s you favourite thing to eat or drink at the cinema? thank you guys, good mylot :)

The ambience of cinema theatre makes you feel to eat or drink soft drinks. Even I do not feel like eating anything at home when I am watching movie. But in theatre, I must have popcorn and soft drink. My favourite snack is chocolate popcorn and soft drink any thing available.

i've never tried chocolate popcorn, in the cinema in my city there are only normal popcorns but a lot of chips, mi favourite snack is normal popcorn, but i would like to eat the other kind of popcorn too.

Yeah definitely.Food is a must in movies.I eat whatever I get hold of popcorns junk foods cold drinks anything.If I am with my friends then after the movie a gala dinner is a must.The point is after a hectic week when we go out for a movie on the weekends we need to relax and enjoy.Moreover popcorns have an added advantage.They are a good time pass when the move is boring.It also helps to disturb others by throwing it on them.Its fun to disturb your friends who have there eyes glued to the screens.

I don't purchase anything at the cinema because of the cost, but I do bring a bottle of water with me in case I get thirsty I hide it in my purse because you aren't allowed to bring outside food and beverage into the cinema.

Depends on the movie playing and the time! Coz sometimes i watch a movie in the morning.. and u know i dont really feel that hungry then. But an afternoon movie definitely demands for something. At a night or evening show, it would depend on what i had for lunch. Many times, i eat more during boring movies. I dunno if its just me or what but i eat when the movie's slow and sad. If i'm enjoying the movie, i'd rather not have the distraction of sharing popcorn, passing the bucket etc. At home though.. i dont eat at all. But thats prob coz i watch movies only late at night and i'm too lazy to go pick something to eat at that time :P

Food sold at cinemas are more expensive than that sold at supermarkets. So the cinemas i go to is in a shopping complex. So i go to the supermarket and buy some mini snicker bar packet, a bottle of drink and take it into the movies. This is far cheaper and I feel frugal so its all good. Or if I am really hungry i often go to KFC or McDonalds or Subway and just buy food and take it in. Does anyone else do this as well?

I do love to eat and watch movies...i mostly bring chips and soda...sometimes when i feel like being a little adventurous i tend to bring food which have a strong smell like rice in a box with meat toppings lol where when i eat it almost all the people inside knows what I'm eating but not all theaters allow those kinds of food though...

I, too, like to eat chips and popcorn and have a soda or bottled water at the cinema. Not only at the cinema actually but also at home while watching tv. Thanks for reminding me about the cinema before i forget i have a date with my hubby to watch 2012 three hours from now! Hi, codris!

I love to have popcorn and soft drinks while watching a movie at the theaters. Even when I watch movie on my computer I munch a packet of chips. I love fast food, or in other words junk food, more so while watching movies.

As much as possible i try not have a food or drink while im at the cinema. It is for respect to other people also. We must admit that food like popcorn, chips or some other crunchy foods makes a little bit of sound and that's what im trying to avoid. I dont want the people sitting next to me feel uncomfortable that might ruin his/her movie watching experience because of me.

Whether at home or at the cinema, I dont think watching a movie would ever be the same without having some munchies to eat, followed by something to wash it all down with! However, I dont like the prices of food and drink at the cinema, as they are way overpriced... and I dont like sitting through a movie with lots of people crunching loud chips or slurping their way through the whole movie. Happy myLotting!

I know I cant go into a theatre without buying something, even though its really exspensive I enjoy myself more, because I have a full more body experience

it's quite different between i watching movies at home and in a cinema~ when i am watching movies in a cinema,drink is very important.but i do not like the soft drink like coca cola, fanta etc,. i just like drink water~~.if there's a friend go with me, we will buy some pop corn or chips~i think it's not only a snack but also a thing to adjust the atmosphere... if i'm watching at home,it's quite different~i don't like drinking water or eat snacks~but friuts are necessary to me~~

I like buttered popcorn and a soda. I don't eat popcorn at home so it's a special treat when I go to the show. Once in awhile I'll get candy too. Love to splurge when watching a movie.

I prefer cola..while watching in a cinema.. sometimes i don't like to eat crunchy food because of it's sound while chewing...it makes the movie almost unclear to listen to.=)

Well, I do, sometimes. Most people have pop to drink but I find myself having coffee instead because it's normally really cold inside the theater. And as for food, when we do go about ordering something to eat, it would normally be popcorn. It's one of those things that go with movies so, yes, sometimes it's nice to eat and drink in the movies.

The cost of food and beverages at the movies are expensive. I always bring my purse with me and hide candy in it. I usually eat before going to the movie. The last movie I had seen was Toy Story 1 and 2. If food prices were cheaper maybe I would consider buying popcorn. I eat popcorn when I watch movies at home.

I hate being distracted when watching a movie, there for I try not to eat anything big like a meal or something. Snacks like chips and a drink is cool.

I like eating in general. =] But yes, I tend to want popcorn and pop more at the movie theater than if I'm sitting at home. It's just like a tradition for me - it's not a good movie without the popcorn! Haha!
