Nothing. I drink wine or beer and watch the movie.

>>19046525
you sound insufferable

>>19046523
Back when I was young when my family went to the drive in my mom got all the cool snacks and drinks we wouldn't normally get like planters cheese balls. Nowadays I don't really watch movies.

>>19046523
I don't buy snacks specifically to watch a movie, I just eat whatever I've got at that present time.

>>19046523
I find snacks and all that overpriced at the movies. I usually smuggle in 2 cans of beer and a little candy, that's about it. Maybe a small bottle of water as extra.

At home it all depends on the day and mood, some tea, maybe some wine and usually I watch movies when eating dinner.

>>19046531

Sour patch kids and something tall and frosty

>>19046523
I don't watch TV. I physically threaten the ADL and the jewish community in my free time

>>19046523
when I was a kid, my stepdad smuggled 1lb bags of m&ms into the movie theater.
I was a fatass.

3-4 beers, start movie, drink 3-4 more beers, go to /tv/ and make a thread complaining about movie so it gets replies, 3-4 more beers, bookmark thread and close it. wake up and check bookmark to find out the thread was pruned or deleted

>>19046816
Jannies must answer for the thread holocaust they commit every day. I suggest we find them irl and give them the foi Gras treatment.

>>19046785
Based and redpilled

>>19046523
I don't. I fail to see the point in doing such a thing. I am very much capable of sitting still for 90 minutes without eating, and I prefer to keep it that way.

>>19046523
Bolognese and ironwort tea.

>>19046870
>I am very much capable of sitting still for 90 minutes without eating
i hate giving girls oral also

My local theater is next to a Dollar Tree. You go to Dollar Tree, buy candy, sneak it into the theater. My preference was twizzlers.

>>19046523
At home I don’t eat anything. At the theater it’s crab legs.

Everyone calls bringing food into the theater 'sneaking it in' but have you ever heard of someone getting caught with their own snacks and getting into trouble for it? Surely they know everyone is doing it.

>>19046896
I got kicked out because my friends and I snuck in 2 30 racks. They did not refund my money

>>19046896
Always carry a purse, even as a young man. They won't search your purse, even as a young man. It was true in 2002 when I watched Kung Pow, it's especially true TWENTY-ONE YEARS LATER

>>19046523
smoked oysters + kimchi tastes like korean stew. really good with beer or coffee. grapes and swiss cheese is pretty nice too.

>>19046523
Someone explain why you would order something not Popcorn. I only bought a pizza ONCE and that was mainly for the fact that I was starving.
And how do people eat Nachos? I can't stand it, probably because me being spoiled since I was a baby with Mexican restaurants.

I sneak plain McChickens in my pockets.

>>19046540
what do the people working there think about a man wearing a purse?

>>19046523
I typically just do nicotine pouches & drink coffee. This heightens my alertness andallows me to truly take in the film

I like to pay theater price for 3 boxes of Sno-Caps, the worst candy ever.
At home, I just eat little pieces of shit sprinkled with gravel to simulate the real thing. I also throw a few $20 bills into the fireplace just so I can feel like I paid for it.

Pickles if Italian film or sopranos
Pop corn
Romaine with oil/red wine vinegar

>>19046523
Water, meat, nuts, whatever edibles I have within reach

>>19046939

>>19046523
Just popcorn. Rarely, bag of those fresh sugar coated roasted nuts. Cashew, almond, pecan. My localish theatre chain does them and keeps them hot. Also get 2 XL bags of corn for like.. 4.50. I get one, share it if with people, then get the refill after and take it home and ziplock it cause I looooove popcorn. No butter. They put enough while making and I don't notice a huge difference. Just how lubed my hands are. Had my shit buttered until like 17 cause my family always did. Not neeeeded.

>>19046540
takes me back. my friends and i used to bring beer into movies all the time. i've been living in austin a long time now so we just got to the drafthouse and watch movies with beer on tap and no fucking commercials now. although with things getting so expensive, i've been thinking about bringing a flask out with me, like when i was young and poor

>>19046816
what a life

>>19049418
I never go to those cause they're pricey and lots of others srve booze for cheaper.

Do they really remove the previews? I love the previews..

>>19047636
who cares?

>>19048919
christopher nolan gonna get you in your sleep boy

>>19049424
commercials, not previews, fella. all the good, nothing bad. agree, it's expensive. but the best.

Sunflower seeds, roasted and in their shells. Half a bag lasts for an entire movie.

I'm so poor I can't even afford to buy popcorn anymore. I mean, $30 for a small bag?
Fuck that noise.

>>19046523
For me, it's crab legs.

>>19046523
when I'm at the theater, I bring a bottled drink, usually tea, and I buy a medium sized popcorn, I then proceed to only eat from it three times during the whole movie, I have never, ever finished an entire thing of popcorn at the theater.

if I'm at home, I only watch movies during dinner, so I'm having whatever I'm having for dinner.

>>19046523
I only have the most tepid of tap water whilst enjoying my silent Soviet masterpieces

>>19049480
foreveralone

>>19049440
When are there ever commercials in a cinema? That boggles my noggin. There are the hour before previews like.. Noovie Arcade and Coca Cola and w.e local shit? Assuming you mean that, what do they show instead? The one time I went I got there like.. at show time almost.

>>19046523
I can’t eat popcorn :( I think I have a diverticula

>>19046523
Softer foods. Anything crunchy like chips or popcorn distract me because autism, and make it hard to hear quieter dialogue too. I always have beer on hand, if not mixed drinks, but something like soft fruits such as grapes, or humus and naan are great examples. With how I really love meat snacks, I'll sometimes have strips of a beef roast, sliced sausages, jerky, or sardines or herring, depending on the vibe of the film.
I like to get immersed and choose foods dependant on the setting, again, because autism.

>>19049566
Who doesn't finish their stuff by like the first 10 mins in? I start my snacks 10 or so before previes cause I'm usually a bit early but not by much and stop quickly in, cause I'm autistic too and don't like to crunch n munch. Def can't eat crunchies during quiet moments.

>>19049440
My local kinda chain has those comfy af lounger seats in nearly all theatres. The reclining ones so I don't bother with these. I also don't want a tasty big ass meal n booze delivered to me but I see the appeal.

>>19049590
Forgot to mention I only watch movies at home, no previews or anything for me. I pirate, so it's always straight to the film.
I snack during movies just for taste, not because I'm hungry. For example, one of the coziest times I can remember was watching Leviathan all cozy on my little sofa and enjoying a few cans of sardines with dill and mustard with a 5th of bottom shelf rum, soaking my hardtack in it.

>>19049628
Ah, I gotcha. Well thats neat but I don't get the distraction. Maybe all this time it hasn't been my irritation with gross crunchy crunch disruptions and the focus. Thats likely why I scarf it all fast to take in the feature. I tend to go late af to movies tho and I REALLY love the theatre. The huge screen. The going out. Getting lost in it and shutting off my brain somewhat. Etc. Go a lot and often alone.

>>19049734
I feel you, I really do actually love theatres, but all the other people turn me off so much I can't stand it. They're always so loud and rude.

>>19049924
Go late as night if you can! Its a treat. Can't find people to go with you at 11 PM usually, but thats also a pro. Nobody asking you shit or chatting or eating or taking you out of it. Love me some rumbling sound system you feel in your bones or going into a theatre with clear weather or sunshine and waking out to rain or night or w.e. hope theatres never go away.

>>19049966
>>19049924
Rarely very many people go that late. If they do its for a super new within the week movie. All the weird beards that go late tend to space themselves out, lol. You miss all that crap.

>>19049547
do you not live in america? i was in high school (late nineties) the first time they showed a commercial before a film we had just paid for. we all stood up and booed. it's like ubiquitous now. at the drafthouse they do previews and all that, but also all kinds of other fun stuff. they'll cut together a preshow full of all kinds of weird clips that are in some way related to the film. random old commercials the actors did, interviews, all kinds of interesting and oddball stuff. the people running the drafthouse legit love movies and it definitely shows, i think, even though most of the locations are now franchises.

>>19049924
man i feel like a real shill at this point, but this is another reason i go to alamo drafthouse: they are extremely serious about no talking, no texting, phone in your pocket. they legit kick people out. it's fucking amazing.

>>19050035
What are you retarded or something? That's why friends and I went to movies like 20 to 30 minutes after the so called start time to avoid the idiot commercials. Hey fuckers I bought a ticket to see the fucking movie, not your fucking commercials.

>>19046773
faggot

>>19050306
takes one

>>19046531
Because I like to get buzzed and immersed in the movie instead of mindlessly eating?

>>19050367
Its still fun to throw popcorn at the theatre screen

>>19046523
Incoming bursts of flavacol

>>19046523
dont like movies they take too long and are slow

>>19050393
yeah, that's why nobody in their right mind goes to them unless it's with a girlfriend or family.

>>19046816

At home nothing normal then I ever do always a movie on big deal.
Go to a theatre it's the big box of popcorn a large soft drink and vaped weed

>>19050402
Friends and I used to take the opening commercials to hit the men's room and smoke joints, at least we there for the goofy chicks that made us go to those movies. Ever try to sit through a faggot fellini movie? don't try unless you have a lot of weed.

>>19050374
I'm not going to throw popcorn at my TV.

>>19050402
>At home nothing normal then I ever do always a movie on big deal.

>>19050538
anon vaped too much weed, please understand

>>19050547
>vaped too much weed
U wot m8?

>>19050035
Well that's why I asked lol.. I've only been there once and like I said, got there at show time so I missed all that. I do live in America lol. I even attend little artsy film bar type deals and they do all this TCM style shit. I just wasn't sure what commercials. None of my theatres, even the big chains do commercials aside from ad sales and Noovie which is just incoming films and trivia crap during the hour before your movie starts. Don't get there so early. Lol. They're not wedged into movie time frame. Start time hits, doors close, nothing but coming attraction previews. Who would stand and boo a half hour before a movie? Get what I was curious about?

>>19050051
Thats amazing. Haven't seen video yet. My local is a sorta chain called Harkins and they have management walk every theatre 3 times per show to take care of idiots and check sound and picture and room temp or w.e. they're as big as an AMC or w.e but nicer, cheaper, loungers, show indie shit, foreign shit, 5 dollar classics on Tuesdays, all sorts of stuff, which is likely why I don't Alamo often. Between that and the super tiny local theatres i try and support. Will have to try it again, you've sold me.

>>19046523
>What do you dudes and dudettes snack on while watching movies?
nothing, you are watching a movie. if you want to eat go to a restaurant or stop the movie till you are done.

>>19046896
>but have you ever heard of someone getting caught with their own snacks and getting into trouble for it?
no because theaters stopped caring about that about 40 years ago.

I like wine gums, tasty and silent to eat, no embarrassing CRUNCH CRUNCH sound

>>19046896
>>19046902
Dont forget booze and beers, it's easier during winter when stuff like bongs and beers can be hidden in jackets and sweaters. Looking back on it friends and I were pretty damn good at doing that in nyc but then we were all friends so weren't being looked at too hard.

>>19054413
Last time I went to the movies I had a black plastic bag in my hand with a few cans of beer in it. No one said a thing. Turns out I didn't have to bother filling up my pockets as well haha.

>>19054437
Good times :-)

>>19053142
Sometimes its fun to crunch like with gardettos

prob popcorn like OP pic. might have smuggled in a cheap bag of sweets too when I was younger

at home I just have a few beers. would only eat if I happened to be having my dinner

>>19049966
catching the last film of the night is a good time to score some cardboard movie promos. Had a Mean Girls one for a while back in the day

based Alamo Drafthouse chads in the thread
I'll usually just get a burger and fries and a couple of beers
or tendies if I am feeling like a little scamp

>>19054482
>For a while
How long did it last until the cum disinterested it?

>>19049465
I'm sorry sir, but we have a 'no singles policy'. You'll have to leave.

I'm thinking I should get a cheap popcorn maker for my house so I can buy cheap popcorn colonels and eat a shitload of cheap popcorn while watching my 4k blu rays instead of going to movie theaters and paying a shitload of money

>>19057163
You should do this, the popcorn they make is very good. If you're not scared of eating wacky chemicals, you can buy Flavocol, which is the popcorn seasoning salt movie theaters use. Flavocol + coconut oil + air popped popcorn = movie theater taste
I'm torn on the stuff cus i'm a paranoid schizophrenic and often believe that stuff like this is poison

>>19057180
Bro, our tap water is more often than not filled with all kinds of poisons, and our government says it is safe to drink.
If I'm going to die, I want to die after having lived my life the way I want to live it, and that means eating the tastiest popcorn I can.

>>19046523
>at theatre
I bring in fast food usually, chik fil a is pretty good and close to the theatre. before chipotle became expensive food poisoning, i would often bring a burrito in with me. Otherwise, a small popcorn and a water bottle i sneak in.
>at home
usually whatever my lunch is, or a snack like mixed nuts. If its the weekend, ill get /druk/ and who knows what kind of bullshit ill overeat while drinking.

>>19046523
Dry unsalted butter free popcorn and a large coke. If I’m feeling frisky I’ll include theater nachos and the small boxes cheese with jalapeños on top

>>19046523
pizza

I don't like to eat too much while I watch movies. Some nuts or a small plate of crackers and cheese.

Some rum/bourbon over ice to sip is good though. Enough to loosen the mind and relax without distracting from the movie, can always get hammered after the movie.

>>19046523
>popcorn with fake butter juice and white cheddar seasoning
>half mtn dew half dr pepper

Perfection

>>19048919
loving every laugh

>>19046523
I love nachos, but I'm autistic and I can't stand my hands being dirty for long periods of time. I just don't eat unless I brought gloves.

I'm not spending $20 for a small popcorn and a drink at the theatre. AMC theaters here opened up a bar recently and even then cocktails there are very expensive.

>>19046523
cheese mustard and crackers

>>19059908
specifically this, goudam cheese is the best cheese ever created and food lion mustard has the best nozzle so it doesn't explode when you squeeze it like wal-mart's does. Club crackers are self explainitory and obviously superior to other crackers

>>19059932
>goudam
wtf and you people complain about Asian people copying and stealing your inventions

>>19046523
large soda so i have an excuse to leave during cringe parts

>>19059959
Walking out on your life daily huh?

>>19046523
I don't watch TV. I physically threaten the ADL and the jewish community in my free time

>>19059944
goudam is literally the best cheese ever created, I wouldn't care if they stole the recipe from a blind amputee orphan nun with polio if it resulted in me being able to eat this cheese

>>19059964
wait, what if we could all just "leave" and "come back" as we pleased?

In theaters
- Good & Plenty
- Red Vines
- Popcorn
- Reeses Pieces or Buncha Crunch
Sometimes eaten with the popcorn
- Ice water or sprite

At home:
- Pretzels
- Ice Cream
- Baby carrots and hummus

Popcorn with butter and salt. Throw in some peanut M&Ms in the middle and take your time going through it. Should last the movie.

>>19046523
This is the secret bros

>>19060626
it's all in the flavacol, the oil has 0 fucking taste whatsoever

>>19060626
why not just buy salted buttered popcorn for the microwave

>>19060730
It's not the same everyone knows this

>>19060626
>>19060738
I fell for the Flavacol meme. To me it just tastes exactly like microwave popcorn. What I do now is make my own clarified butter and use that for stovetop popcorn. Why use fake butter flavor and yellow #5? I'm pretty sure Flavacol exists to cut costs from not using actual butter. It brags about profits all over the container.

I do like the white popcorn kernels though. They are not as big and fluffy as yellow, but I think it's crisper and ends up with less rock hard half-popped kernels.

>>19060789
iirc from internet research, flavacol is finer cut salt so it better covers the kernels. The fake butter flavor is incidental

the only kind of popcorn I like are the sweet and salty ones from those overpriced single serving microwave ones

I would love to make my own popcorn if I could make them taste like that

>>19060818
I used the entire carton, and this doesn't really matter at all. Usually there would be a bunch left over at the bottom of the pot. I use salted clarified butter, and sprinkle a tiny bit of salt over it immediately after it's done popping. This works better than just adding Flavacol beforehand. I can see how if you were making huge amounts like at a movie theater you might want to do it the Flavacol way, but even then there's nothing special about fine salt.

I was thinking of making my own version that is just finely ground salt and MSG for use with clarified butter.

Yeah bud, diverticulitis. I had that shit, had to go to hospital for scan. Not sure if it came from popcorn or chia seeds tho.

I have resumed for 3 years eating popcorn with no issues and have not touched chia seeds. I'm thinking my issue was a dried chia got stuck then expanded and ouch for me.

>>19062374
