Many struggling cinemas depend on sales of pricey food and drink as ticket revenue mainly goes to film studios. But does banning outside supplies really add up, asks Stuart Heritage
We are here because being tough on crime doesn’t work. Setting fire to a flame is pointless, so why fight crime with unethical legality? Be firm with crime, not tough. Be understanding, not unrelenting.
I think we should gas the whole cinema, we will ensure that the rot wont spread. These degenerates endangering corporate profits cannot be allowed to spread their hateful message and those who were near by have already been infected by the thought crime.
I would recommend that the cinema chain start selling some form of sweet flavored inhalant, lace it with nicotine to ensure that the poors will keep coming back for more.
Push the marketing to extreme levels showing “fun” and “exciting” people enjoying the new product, have seasonal flavors and “funky” colours.
Ah yes, the happy people. I see them in pictures and posters and ads and websites everywhere. A multicultural club of people for whom life is pure bliss. Living the dream. Drinking coffee in a white bathrobe next to the cat. Looking over each other’s shoulder in business suits smiling at the screen. Everyday a magical journey of pure joy enamoured with life.
There’s a video of the incident in an article someone posted in the comments, they were asked to either remove the food, or leave and get a refund, they declined to do either. Their conduct towards the employees was also way out of line.
Honestly, both parties are pretty awful in this situation.
Oh, I didn’t see that. Yep, sounds like both out of line. However, one side is acting entitled. The other is calling the police in families eating sweets.
By the time the police were called, they were refusing to leave, acting beliggerent towards staff, and generally ruining the experience for everyone around them.
The video that they posted themselves makes them look pretty awful.
The family should get an apology and police should talk to the cinema about wasting police time.
If the cinema had an issue with the family eating their own food, kick them out this is not a criminal issue.
The family should get home D. If we’re going to get tough on crime then let’s get tough on crime.

They’re winding you up, and quite successfully.

Hello Hello?
Hi.

How can this country gain “business confidence” if the theatres cannot be confident that they can fob off 2x overpriced lollies and sugar water?

I cannot find the sign-up page for this club.
But then they’d have to refund the ticket price!
