Also, the local AMC started doing assigned seats and I have no problem with it whatsoever. If I know it's going to be a busy movie, I'll buy the tickets in advance and skip the lines, and still get the seats I want.



I realize that I posted this too late to edit it, but the main reason that I like the assigned seating is that more than once, I have seen people asked to move, even if they were there first, because someone else wants to sit there and the staff at the theater come and ask them to comply with the request. >:(

I chose "pre-assigned," but there is a caveat. The theater I like to visit is a Cinebistro. When we want to pay the extra $$ for the upstairs bistro seating, then we choose our seats. As far as I can remember, that theater's general seating is first come/first served.

(of course, this is also the theater where the guy shot the dad for texting -- but that was in the general seating section. Everyone upstairs knows that the other patrons up there are eating, chatting, drinking, texting, etc during the previews and at least part way through the movie. The staff even comes around to clear the plates and utensils after the movie has started!)

What if you sit down in that seat you wanted, only to have a 300-lb fat chick with a jumbo popcorn and a wheezing cough sit down next to you?

Sounds like every movie I ever watched on a commercial flight.

****** And I eat before I go. Fuck the concessions.



Agreed! Theatre popcorn is for DZ.com threads about swooping. B|

How does that cure your gf's wheezing cough?
